Maybe this is the White Sox' year. Yes, they still have to win two more games to clinch the World Series...and, with the Astros' pitching - and the Series now moving to Houston - that won't be easy. But, c'mon...it must be some kind of sign when Scott Podsednik - who had no home runs during the regular season - hits a walkoff homer to win game two!

The Sox are dominating the news around here these days. After all, this only happens once every 46 years! As I stood out in the chilly rain getting fan reaction after the Sox won game two, I don't think any of us felt either the chill or the rain!

The Bears are well into their season (tied for first place)...the Blackhawks' season is under way...and, the Bulls are nearing the end of their pre-season (the regular season begins at home November 2nd). It's very rare around here to have all four major sports playing at the same time. Plus, the Chicago Fire soccer team is in the playoffs...so, that makes it five teams in action!



I'm supposed to go to Dallas this coming weekend to present some radio news sessions for the Texas Association Press Broadcasters. But, Saturday would also be Game Six of the World Series. We'll see how that plays out.

Jeanne is back from her weeklong trip that took her to St. Louis, Little Rock, Hot Springs, Houston, New Orleans, Houston again...and then back home to Chicago. She reports that the French Quarter in New Orleans is slowly returning to its old self.

That's all for now...
