Is it wrong that every time I look out the window I want to yell "FYC!"?

That stuff you guys attributed to him earlier, he really said that? Because I thought that was just a spot-on imitation.

No. He said that.

Absolutely love the dipshits who are lighting up Twitter blaming the city for the motorists stranded on Lake Shore Drive. This despite the fact that the city was warning about this storm for three days, told people to stay off LSD after 4 p.m. earlier this morning, and you know, the storm is in full fucking force for the next 6-8 hours, so there isn't a helluva lot they can do.

I'm kind of enjoying the increasingly desperate reports from Roger Badesch on WGN.

DPD. Amusingly, the Lake County EAS message included autoreading the portions "left bracket," "exclamation point," and "right bracket."

QuotePart of Wrigley Field lands on Clark Street

A section Wrigley Field's roof was blown off shortly after 6PM.  Our WeatherBug camera captured the debris lying in the street earlier this evening.  Police are attempting to clean up the debris. 



Any chance Darwin Barney was hit by the wreckage?

Any chance we can get Snork up there for some light repair work?

I agree. It would've been best if they saved it until they were safely at home.

Chuck is like Soriano only without all the home runs, hosed baserunners and eventual end of his tenure here.

And just ten times as infuriating, since Soriano actually produces every now and then.
