The Diamondbacks Will Wear Kansas City Throwback Uniforms
Look at that. That's a damn fine uniform. Unis from a century ago were usually pretty great—white or gray, high socks, uncluttered chest logo, and my favorite, logo-less caps. The Diamondbacks will suit up in these bad boys next Wednesday, and they're going to look great, but it's more than little w...

The Sky Above Wrigley Field Today Was Spectacularly Haunting

Both Chicago Teams Played In The Fog, And It Was Gorgeous
We noticed last night that Wrigley Field looked like it had been transported to Silent Hill. (This being the Cubs, maybe Superman 64 is the better analogy.) But the fog covered the South Side too, and the morning-after photos are equal parts eerie, quirky, and beautiful....

Chicago Man Stabs Bar Patron In The Neck, Throws His Own Shit All Over A Police Station
Having to go the bathroom at a bar is the worst. It always smells like piss and shit, everything is either soaking wet or sticky, drunk dudes always want to strike up a conversation, and sometimes crazy people jump out from the bathroom stall and stab you in the neck with a broken beer bottle. From...
Drawn By The Scent Of Death And Decay, Coyotes Prowl Wrigley Field
Night. The pack slips silently out of the den, drawn by an unnameable urge deep in the midbrain. The streets are deserted, the twolegs having retreated to the safety of their dwellings.
