SportsFilter: The Wednesday Huddle:

A place to discuss the sports stories that aren't making news, share links that aren't quite front-page material, and diagram plays on your hand. Remember to count to five Mississippi before commenting in anger.

"I love the Cubs, but damn, how I hate Cubs fans." That was pretty much my mantra while living in Wrigleyville o so many years ago.

WARNING: the link goes to a video posted on Facebook that features anti-Hispanic violence and extreme racism/misogyny in the bleachers of Wrigley Field.

SportsFilter's MySQL server went on a holdout last night. We convinced it to report.

Can we get tahoe an expense account and some per diem $$ so he can attend the Cowboy Poetry Gathering up the road in Elko as a SpoFi correspondent?

I spend a lot of time in Elko, as my mining clients are all located nearby (as nearby as anything in Nevada--an hour or two). I usually bill at $300 per hour, but for SpoFi and cowboy poetry, I will do it for a bottle of Ely, Nevada's finest Two Bitches Bourbon, a pre-rolled joint per day, and rental $ for a ten-gallon hat.
