Or, as Big D has noted: "Jimmy Collins has had a great nine-year run. ... Unfortunately, he's entering his 15th season."

Know where everyone is coming from with the occasional Chicago State references but man....I just went on their website and they built a decent on campus facility ,,, frickin Chicago State so who are we to talk ? Could not click on their baseball facility link... something called Gwendoyl Brooks field or so mething ... despite having Henry Aaron as our namesake it can not be any worse than our county park pasture...a disgrace... even Concordia gets a 2,000 seat stadium for D III... Only Div 1 in state .. what a joke.... are you out there Bud Selig??? Donate to baseball in Milwaukee continuing ... give something back out of the windfall you made when selling the Brewers and the $18 million salary you get every year you hang on....

For what it's worth, Gwendolyn Brooks is a former poet laureate and one of the most important American writers of the 20th Century. So there's that.

I like how she looks like she's about to punch someone in her wikipedia pic.

Hack,,, you are right... one of my stream of consciousness random rants... it just got under my skin when I went on the Chicago State web site... saw they just got a nice new arena on campus which it looks like we will have in a few years too....what sets me off is the whole baseball thing everytime I drive by Lincoln Park or see a reference... not meanto to denigrate Gwendolyn Brookes at all.. if anyone knows me I would be the last person to do so for political and ideological reasons. Anyway, just assumed even Chicago State has a D 1 baseball facility. Here we are the only D 1 baseball program in Wisconsin. These kids make to the NCAA and we play on a high school field in a county park.. sigh... here I am ramblin again but the Selig thing. Always will be thankful to Selig for bringing baseball back here. On the flip side years of hearing his crocodile tears and pablum as he has lined his own pockets and has not been exactly the font of philanthropy or giving back either when he owned the franchise or since..... onward.....

With all the channels out there now, how is it that Charles in Charge is not on tv?

posted on twitter, though i think it may have been deleted (it doesn't show up on the actual page):
"chicolbball Jimmy Collins is retiring from coaching basketball on August 31, 2010. Another coaching search is just beginning. Wow! #uic "
EDIT: damn...beat by a minute
