Today's Links--Holiday Weekend Edition

• Wages of Wins explains why Ben Gordon being the leading scorer is not indicative of his real contributions (or lack thereof). Also a look at some other Bulls issues by the numbers.
• Two retarded Cubs fans fight after a game. The best part is that you can hear the "Go Cubs Go" song in the background as they are trying to kill each other.
• Maybe the Bears aren't good because Lovie isn't pushing them as hard in camp and practice? Sounds possible, though it is more likely a combination of factors.
• Northwestern spanks 'Cuse. Sutton with 144 yards on the ground. It's a good start, but lets see them do that in the Big Ten.
• C.C. did not throw a no-hitter. Stop whining Milwaukee.
  
• Crack in the armor? The weekend goes poorly for the Cubs. Get ready for the roller coaster.
  
• Thome reaches home run milestone. The Mick has a beer in his honor. Boy did that guy like to party.
• Illinois loses, but big year may still be ahead.
• Sox end up winning Sunday, but the real show was Dustin Pedroia. He looks like Teddy Ballgame these days.
