OSG Prem: Words You Can't Say On Live TV... Well, Maybe, In Britain...???

((HT: Iain McIntosh/Tony Jameson's Vine))

Jamie Redknapp will end up being quite correct on his assessment of Arsenal with Mathieu Flamini's yellow card that he picked up in the Sunday contest against Everton...

He's out the next two games including the FA Cup semi against Wigan...

But he did say this on air in previewing the game against the Toffees...


And I know a lot of analysts that would love to use language like that...

But we all know it's a big boo-boo...

Goat's Head Delivered To Cubs Owners, Curse Still Exists...

((HT: MLB/ESPN))

How's this for interesting-slash-creepy-slash-typical of a town that is stuck in baseball neutral...

Every year...
Since 1908...

The head of a goat was delivered to Wrigley Field and the package was addressed to team owner Tom Ricketts. The package didn't look like it was dropped off by the normal mail-type folks...

The delivery comes as the team is, pretty much, telling owners of businesses and rooftop seats to stick it with the new renovation and development planned by Ricketts for Wrigley Field and the hotel to-be-planned...

The whole goat thing...???

It dates back to 1945 when tavern owner Billy Sianis bought a box seat for his goat, Murphy, for Game 4 of the World Series. When he was told Murphy could be around and they had to leave, Sianis claimed he put a curse on the team so they'd never host another World Series game...

And they haven't, now, have they...???

Here's what the curse means to Chicago, now that the Boston version is gone...
