The food is amazing. The menu not too big, not too limited. Amazing service. This place is full on New Orleans - the bathroom is out the back , through the kitchen. This is the place to go on the "take it easy night" if you are having a few nights in NOLA. We asked for spicy everything and it was perfect. Not too crazy hot. Not too tourist cool.

Picture yourself spending some time with congenial friends, sharing your lives and pictures from your cell phones." They're curious about that cool game, song, movie, camping trip, art show, or other event that fascinated you. You talk about all kinds of stuff, poetry, styles, personal achievements, relationships, and bad days. You can share your inner child, and laugh together. They sympathetically listen to your feelings about serious topics like politics or climate change, even when they don't agree.
Personal validation comes from paying attention to one another, giving more than you get. Everyone respects you and themselves, despite our amazing range of personal tastes and interests. They'll tell you they don't agree with an idea or behavior without implying you're a bad person or somehow deficient. It's an "I'm OK, You're OK" kind of fellowship, where nobody tries to make himself look better by picking on somebody else.
Nobody here is into mind games. A discussion started with a loaded guilt-throwing question will be deleted.
This group is not intended to compete with other groups on topics they cover but to "fill in the cracks." Whenever a discussion dwells at length on a topic for which there's an existing group, we urge you to provide members a link to that group to continue along their tangent.
A comment is a shout-out, which will get lost in a few days, because the comment wall is just a random stack.
Please start a discussion to share stories, photos, and videos. Replies will pop up in your "latest activity" and a conversation can develop from the feelings and thoughts you contributed. Groups are built on discussions.

That sounds just like what I would have done, Joan. Sorry I misunderstood.
Ian, that's kinda gruesome. The cow pig picture is cute all by itself.
Thanks, Tony. I didn't know about world animal day either.
O, noes! Aiz nawt gonna be aybul to eet a baycun cheezburger inny moar! (My fave!...wif ahvukado! 2 moar muntz an they'll be ripe! Yum!))
I need to clarify one thing about the calico cats. I had each one spayed after their first litter, kept the calico baby and when they proved to not be good mothers I had them spayed and that went on for three or four generations. No disinterested mother had a second litter. Thus, Calico I, II, III. So, I never had more than two mother cats and her kittens, and on a military base, with people moving in and out all the time, there was a lot of demand for cats. I don't know about dogs. We didn't have a mice problem, and cats even took care of the scorpions and spiders for us. I could never understand how a cat could eat a poisonous spider, but they did.
Interesting story Joan.
Halloween has always been my favorite holiday, too. But living with a JW makes it difficult now that I'm unable to run to the door and hand out the treats. The JW sits out back by the pool so she won't be "contaminated."
When I was in Holiday, we had FAAAAAABulous Halloween parties. The company had nothing to do with them; we did all the work ourselves, including a "floor show" that was a parody of that year's production. LOLz all over the place.
I kinda see Yosemite Sam in the black orchid. Napoleon Bonaparte, *yuch!* that's not what I had in mind by "Hang With Friends", it's supposed to be a casual form of Hang Around With Friends, as in keep company together.
Joan, I think both genetic and environmental factors influence mothering behavior. I would not have kept breeding a cat, no matter how pretty, who was a disinterested mom. To me a cat's behavior is most important, and beauty less so. Cute analogy.

How To Quit Weed Without Withdrawals Or Sleepless Nights
PLUS: Natural Marijuana Detox At Home
Nice Click…
- Why? Simple. I'm about to share some modern techniques with you
- And some of the best strategies known to help you quit weed
The longer you smoke weed
The harder it can be to quit…
And there isn't much help 'out there' – for us weed smokers:
So What's The Good News?
You've just discovered a solution to quit weed that has already helped over 10,000 people go from a heavy marijuana smoker – to 100% clean both in body and mind
If you're anything like I was, you've tried to quit before and failed
Here's The 2 CRITICAL REASONS why most people trying to quit weed fail within 2 weeks:
The active ingredient in marijuana (and the reason you smoke weed) is THC, we all know this…
What many people don't know, is that the THC content in the weed you smoke is rising all the time
Weed grown today in 2014 is over twice as strong as marijuana grown only 10 years ago.
Weed is now a harder drug
This is often overlooked – and these days, many people are experiencing serious problems when they try to quit weed…
It's crazy, but most people trying to quit weed do nothing to help detoxify.
Detox is more important in marijuana than in any other drug…
This is becoming more popular for people quitting weed, because the chemicals in weed have an ability to stay in your body for a long time
Detox designed for marijuana will flush your system of built up toxins, helping you quit weed easily. This can also help stop cravings to smoke weed, created in your body.
Sometimes these occur months after you actually stop smoking
**Your problem starts right here**
When you inhale weed, THC moves quickly from your lungs to your bloodstream to get you stoned, we know this. But from that point on, weed is completely different to any other drug… Why?
Because after getting you high:
Metabolites of marijuana store in the fat cells of your body and stay there for months
Think that makes it harder to quit? It does.
With weed getting stronger over time, this is one of the main reasons people find it so hard to quit.
While still inside your body, marijuana is released slowly back into the bloodstream
This gives you a lack of focus, mood swings, low energy, headaches, stomach pains, and even sometimes still feeling stoned – even if you haven't been smoking for many days
The real problem?
Cravings to smoke more marijuana
IMPORTANT: You may already have a build up of toxins in your body
Smoking too much gives you a build up of toxins
So you smoke more often, bringing you even more…
The cycle never ends unless you take action
You continue feeding your addiction for months!
To quit weed without understanding this part, is kind of like somebody trying to quit smoking cigarettes yet still sucking down 2 or 3 smokes every day!
If you are trying to quit weed – and you still feel the need to smoke weed, you might be doing things the hard way.
Using willpower alone is NOT the best method to quit marijuana successfully.
Physical Symptoms To Weed?
A regular marijuana smoker will experience many physical symptoms when they quit. Thing is, most smokers believe weed has no physical effects at all
This is another reason why so many have trouble quitting…
Contrary to the common belief, many scientific findings show that marijuana actually can create strong physical withdrawals within your body, that smoking weed actually does relieve
This is creating your vicious cycle.
You might notice when you quit weed that you experience physical symptoms.
Do you?
Common things like:
- Not being able to sleep easily without weed
- Problems with eating regularly / hunger pains
- Feeling 'sluggish' or having a lack of energy
- Even a physical feeling of "something missing
- Sometimes feeling unfulfilled or even depressed
By removing toxins in your body, you can eliminate cravings and even physical withdrawals.
This way of quitting is easier than trying to fight your own thoughts, feelings and desires created in psychological addiction. Smokers now have a real method to follow in order to quit weed…
What Is The Best Way To Quit?
Re-establish the way you actually think about weed – and give your body a marijuana detox.
This isn't a long process and is great for your health
It is also the most successful method to quit smoking pot
Once you think about marijuana differently, and detox denies your body of any cravings or withdrawals, you will find yourself turning down weed offered to you, much more naturally
A good feeling… Imagine it
Better health. Deeper relationships, and a new ability to turn down weed easily…
No matter how difficult it is right now…
When you have control, you can smoke weed less and on your own terms – or not at all…
With this new ability, even people that smoke marijuana daily for years can quit permanently
Any time they choose – or just cut back to once a month… Remember, you will be in control of your addiction for once, and you will have the power to make that decision, and you will keep this power forever.
How would this change your life?
With this guide and detox program I quit marijuana quickly. It really made me feel healthy. Not only that but I look healthier and I have loads more energy. Now I can (sort of) keep up with my son playing football!"
Peter Jacobs – NJ, USA
Quit Marijuana: The Complete Guide
No 12 Step Program… No Stress…

- Defuse your psychological addiction
- ONE sneaky secret to banish your cravings for weed
- How to get to sleep naturally, without smoking marijuana
- What you will feel and REAL-LIFE Solutions that actually work
- What you should never do when you try to quit weed (you are probably doing this!)

- Stop mental fog. Gain clarity, focus & motivation to upgrade your career or education
- Finally get rid of that 'feeling' to smoke weed (discover who the real you is)

Life After Marijuana
Life After Marijuana is an audio program designed to help you after you quit – assisting you to make the decision to quit and follow through, but also help you replace your addiction with healthy alternatives.
Considered the most powerful audio program to help you quit weed, Life After Marijuana has quickly become one of the most used marijuana audio programs online. Rule one in this bizarre audio?
1. Don't quit weed yet…
Does it get easier to follow? If quitting marijuana is still a difficult choice to make for you, you shouldn't try to quit half-heartedly using willpower on your own. That's the easiest way to fail.
Instead of forcing you, this audio serves to change your mind (so you quit by choice). You still quit weed when you want to, but the difference this time – without even knowing it – you'll actually keep your promise due to a strong use of N.L.P, Meditation, Hypnosis and Hypnotherapy.
This 3-part audio changes your perception of weed and breaks quitting marijuana up into easy and manageable steps. Time your quitting date with session 2, you'll not start smoking weed again!
What Is Inside Life After Marijuana?
The 1st session you'll listen to right away. It reveals things about marijuana you may not know. You don't need to quit weed yet! If you smoke weed this session will cause you to see your relationship to marijuana in a different way – exactly what you may need right now!
The 2nd session is the day you quit weed. This session is clear advice about what to expect when you quit and how to deal with each situation from cravings to sleeping problems, from social life to withdrawals. You also get a solid plan to deal with each one.
The 3rd session is the most powerful & designed to leave you not only completely free of marijuana & addiction, but also hungry for a new life of success – whatever it means to you. This session goes above and beyond marijuana, and may just change your life!

That means, while you learn about marijuana and how "smoking regularly" affects your life, you will also become empowered to escape this "ninja addiction" yourself, both consciously and unconsciously.
you'll be exposed to powerful subliminal messages directed towards your sub-conscious.
These subliminal messages are designed to help you, and could be in the form of faint sounds, or more powerfully, a flicker that only your sub-conscious is aware of. You may notice a subliminal message and that's okay. Some are quicker than others. You will not notice all of them.

+ Life After Marijuana
From: Sebastian Grant, 9:22am
October 2014
I "smoked weed every day" myself, for over a decade…
I started daily when I was 14, and continued until I hit 27. That's 13 years… HIGH!
I know… It's a long time! The sad part is…
For the last 4 years, I was hopelessly trying to quit…
Everyone told me marijuana wasn't addictive
But for some reason I had a lot of trouble kicking this habit
Now I know: Tons of people are like I was…
Think about alcohol for a second.
Most people can drink socially – take it or leave it..
But then you also have your alcoholics, don't you?
They drink too much – all the time – and it ruins many lives…
(not just their life but many people around them)
Well, I was the "alcoholic" of marijuana – and maybe you are like I was.
Like many things in life, it can be difficult to change your actions, after many years of habit
These days I am lucky enough to enjoy a clean life, I am in control.
My lungs are healthy and I can think quickly.
I feel great – and I enjoy more confidence and overall happiness in my life
Especially compared to anything I experienced as a marijuana smoker
All because I learned HOW to quit weed.
Not just "keep trying to quit" over & over again like so many people do…
Most people get stuck in analysis paralysis.
They overcomplicate things, and maybe you are doing that as well
For example…
Are you still not sure if you have a problem with weed or not?
If you are – just look at it this way:
- Have you tried to quit weed before?
- And failed!?
- More than once?
Don't over-complicate the situation!
It is that simple…
If you have tried to quit weed before, and you didn't get the result you wanted – you have a problem.
Is that too simple!?
I have studied this addiction for over 8 years now, helping people quit every day.
In this time, I've worked with addiction experts, many smokers and even scientists. These people have helped me research and develop the best marijuana addiction cure on the planet…
So these days, I help people quit weed every single day.
Nobody deserves to make the same mistakes that I made for so long…
And you know what else?
You will enjoy a new freedom: to decide quickly without weed in your life
You won't have to hide anything from anybody, ever again.
You will start to experience 'success' – instead of getting stoned and always having to "make excuses for your failures" in life.
"anything is possible – once you quit weed"
I truly believe that statement more and more over the years…
Heavy weed smokers have untapped potential inside them – and I see this DAILY
If you have smoked weed for a long time, you have a different view of the world than most people out there. You think differently, and this can be a great and very powerful thing, if you harness it.
Problem is, most people in your position continue to do nothing at all – they just keep on smoking
The problem with that is, you are losing your motivation, clarity, and your focus – every day.
To see the potential in your life explode, all you really need to do is quit.
Because you can get back these three things:
– Clarity
– Focus
– Motivation
Are You Ready?
Are you finally ready to take control?
Ready to ACTUALLY quit weed?
Not just "say you want to" and end up stoned next time someone offers you any
(have you done that?)
Or maybe you are still a little unsure?
That's okay too….
Maybe you still believe marijuana has benefits in your life? And you're worried about losing the comfort smoking marijuana brings you – religiously… so chemically, so predictably, so often.
But too often.
I know how you feel – I've felt exactly the same way
But I've also learned to know that you are ready - without a doubt…
It is no coincidence you are still here, carefully reading this page today
Thing is…
You have just found a full proof plan to quit marijuana & improve your life dramatically
Anywhere you look you will find nothing but positive feedback about this guide.
That is because this guide is bursting with proven tactics to quit weed, right now, and it will work for you too. We constantly adapt and refine what works, and this has worked for over 10,000 people…
Why would you be any different?
We test, upgrade, and listen to our customers to improve techniques – all to help you succeed.
The result is an incredible guide that actually works
Plus, we are currently including our entire Natural Marijuana Detox at no extra cost
PLUS! Quit Marijuana Video Program at no extra cost…
These programs are all 100% unique – with original content
They are complete courses on their own.
Yet with all this added value, I have not raised the price yet…
I want EVERYONE to have a chance to quit weed properly…
Don't waste years of your life "stoned out of your brain" like I did
– it just isn't worth it.
And hey – in a few days of not smoking, you'll stop buying weed.
And we both know this program will pay itself off very quickly.
In fact, how quickly? Exactly?
How many days of smoking marijuana does $67 bucks buy you?
Maybe a week? Less?
How much of your weekly cash is going "up in smoke" right now? If you don't take action today and fix your habit, how much will it cost you in the future?
What's worth more to you anyway?
– Your next measly gram of expensive weed, you admit you NEED
– Or a solution that works permanently to help you escape weed, without pain
This even about the money though… is it?
This isn't even about the painful withdrawals or the sleepless nights, either.
This is much bigger than all those excuses
How much has being stoned cost your life – so far?
- In your friends & family?
- In your physical health?
- In your mental health?
- In your appearance?
- In your career or education?
- In your ability to think clearly?
- In your ability to handle emotion?
- In your relationships – with the people you love?
- In your ability to provide for yourself and your family?
- In you?
It's sad.
When you smoke weed all the time, it plays a big part in your whole life
The worst part is that you sometimes can't even see it!
It is normal for us humans to become completely oblivious to our own problems
Weed is no different.
When you quit – your perception will change for the better
You will gain total clarity, motivation and focus
But It Gets Better:
I can say with confidence that when people quit weed this way they end up very pro-active people with good ideas and strong success in mind
You'll see how the world offers you more when you finally 'wake up' and officially finish this frustrating and destructive 'marijuana phase' of your life.
Your life IS important and YOU DO deserve better…
I've been there – and I promise I can help you quit weed:

+ Quit Marijuana Video Program
+ Natural Marijuana Detox
+ Life After Marijuana
I'm working the program. I've set a quit date. Four days away. I feel with your help I was able to create a strong foundation for the structure of quitting smoking. I like the part about people with addictive personalities being obsessive compulsive and how to achieve greatness when unleashed
That described me very well. My biggest breakthrough was that now I know how to stay calm because I have so much energy that I could become overly neurotic and extreme. I am serious about quitting. For once I know I will prove successful. Thanks again for this program"

Your program makes the necessary negative association, which along with everything else, has taken the fun out of smoking and now it is just a bad habit. I guess that was the point. I can clearly say I am doing this for me, but perhaps the timing is not my own. All that is fine though, I needed a push, and you are doing a good thing very well, I imagine it could be quite rewarding
Your best point and my underlying issue is that if you have to keep going to meetings with the losers you are trying to get away from, then you are not free of anything…. Thanks again Seb, I really feel like I owe you a debt of gratitude, and will keep you posted…"
Dean Burch (Associate Director) – NY, USA
P.S One day soon you will honestly look back & know without a doubt this was one of those defining moments in your life when things truly "changed" for you… and this moment helped you reach success you always knew you had inside
P.P.S Remember: This course has a full 8 Week Money Back Guarantee because it works!"If you do not quit and enjoy a better life, we haven't done our job and you have 8 full weeks to decide if you want your money back. Take advantage of this solution and don't miss this risk-free offer…"

Minnesota's online health insurance marketplace has chosen Deloitte Consulting LLP as its main information technology vendor to overhaul its troubled website and computer systems, citing Deloitte's record of success in other states.
MNsure spokeswoman Jenni Bowring-McDonough says the exchange's contract with Deloitte is worth $4.95 million and will run for nine months. Details of Deloitte's plans will be presented to MNsure's board of directors Wednesday afternoon.
New York-based Deloitte was one of the original bidders for the contract to build the exchange, but Deloitte wanted $20 million more than the state was willing to pay. The contract went instead to Reston Va.-based Maximus Inc.
Technical problems marred the launch of the exchange last October and persisted for months, frustrating thousands of health insurance shoppers.

has there been a flash sale for BBWWS yet?
I've been checking but not seen anything yet just want to make sure I've not missed it.
not yet ;)
Please let us know when a flash sale will be available because I need some tickets for March 2013.
Thanks !
Don't worry Thorsten, you've got bags of time yet :goodvibes
I can't decide if I should buy the tickets now at ¬40 it wait for the flash sale? I need to buy 6 tickets for March but want to buy before Christmas as 2 of them are Christmas presents. I bought the ¬30 tickets on the 1ST Dec last year for our tickets in March this year so thought the flash sale may have been on same dates this year. Should I buy now or wait until nearer Christmas? I know I have plenty of time but can't settle until I have the tickets printed off!
Seeing as you print them off immediately I'd wait tbh.
Even if the flash sale hadn't come before Xmas I'd print out some invitations to BBWWS and give them rather than paying an extra 10¬ per ticket just to have the print out in time :goodvibes
Promise as soon as I see it come up this thread will be updated ;)

MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- The Wisconsin Assembly has passed a Republican bill that would increase the penalties for stealing cable television.
Right now first-time cable theft is a civil violation punishable by up to $500 in forfeitures. The bill would make a first-time theft a misdemeanor punishable by up to $500 in fines and 30 days in jail.
The Assembly passed the measure on a voice vote Tuesday. It now goes to the state Senate.

Moore hit several big shots and free throws while playing for Jim Hart's Albany City Rocks this summer, especially during the two-week stretch down in Disney World at the Wide World of Sports complex.
And many college coaches expressed a desire to recruit this 2010 prospect though it would be another year before he could sign a national letter of intent.
A terrific baseball player too while playing the positions of shortstop and third base, Moore has two great options down the road.
His list has expanded again due to his wonderful summer. The list is now: Fairfield, Colgate, Jacksonville, Harvard, Cornell, Fordham, and Rhode Island.

The dean of a small college is not living in the best of times in the comedy Seven Homeless Mammoths Wander New England. In order to save money, the college plans to close the school's lowly-visited natural history museum. Also, the dean's ex-lover Greer is staying with her. Greer, by the way, has a different kind of relationship with the new girlfriend that has solicited shocking reactions on the campus.
Madeline George created the productions, which Bethany Morse directed.

My New Year resolutions were pretty standard -- lose weight, train harder for race season, be a better husband and friend. But there was also one more item on the list, one that I'd wanted for years, but was never able to obtain -- bylines in the three most prestigious cycling publications.
With a bit of luck, I was able to tick off Bike and VeloNews. (I wrote the stories for their websites, but that's close enough for me.) The third publication -- Bicycling Magazine -- remained immune to my charms, pleas and attempts at bribery for most of the year. Luckily, persistence paid off, and you can find the fruits of my labor in the November 2014 issue.
Even better, I have two other pieces slated to run in the coming months. I couldn't be more excited.
Now I need to start thinking of my resolutions for next year. How about an article in one of those same three magazines each month?

To all my former Star colleagues recently let go or having to reapply for their jobs
I feel for you. Just a few short years ago, I was called into my editor's office and told my services were no longer required. I was devastated. I had sunk so much of my life in my job, I had no idea what to do. I drove home in shock and promptly had a mini-nervous breakdown on Twitter. The next morning, I started sending out e-mails to all the local publications, offering up a scratched-and-dented reporter for sale at dirt-cheap prices. I also canceled my subscription.
Over the coming weeks, I had deadline withdrawal. I missed the rush of getting a breaking news story in at the last minute. At the same time, I was dealing with Gannett's HR department, which was trying to screw me out of my contractually obligated severance. Because how could they pay me the money I paid into my unemployment and let the former CEO Craig Dubow walk away with a $37 million retirement package? He had bills to pay, dammit!
Since then, I've managed to carve out a pretty decent career as a freelancer specializing in cycling and outdoor travel journalism. (Ironically, during every review session, I would plead with my editors to let me write some travel features, but to no avail.) I've traveled to France and around the U.S. -- often on other folks' dime -- and written about my adventures for hundreds of thousands of readers. I'm always working, but on stories I'm passionate about and truly enjoy. As I sit here typing on my computer wearing a T-shirt and shorts, I can honestly tell you I am much, much happier now than I ever was at the Star.
For all of you fucked over by the greed of Gannett yet again, be glad you're out. You no longer have to be constantly looking over your shoulder looking for the inevitable axe to fall. You don't have to listen to some corporate talking head talking about recasting the newsroom with an eye on the future. Because if you think this is the last round of layoffs, you are sorely mistaken. Gannett doesn't care about our community or quality journalism, it cares about profit. Nothing more. And they are going to continue to downsize staff until they have squeezed every last nickel they can from the Star's carcass.
The good ship USS Indianapolis Star is taking on water and sinking. When it finally goes down -- and it will go down -- everyone left on that ship is going to be caught in the suction. (Although by that time there will likely only be one employee left, regurgitating press releases and covering the party crasher beat.) You have been given a life raft; use it to paddle away from Gannett and toward a brighter future.
I apologize for any mistakes, grammar errors or misspellings in this long-winded post. I didn't have a copy editor.

Covering NAHBS For Bike Magazine
As I type this, I'm sitting in a Charlotte, NC, Westin, overlooking the city. My friends at Bike Magazine asked me to cover the North American Handmade Bicycle Show, updating their online readers about all the cool mountain bike gear being introduced to the public this weekend. I'll also be hanging out at the Shamrock Cycles booth, talking about my gorgeous new travel bike that the incredibly talented Tim O'Donnell built for me.
If you see a middle-aged hipster with a long beard and Shamrock hat in Charlotte, flag me down and have me buy you a beer. I'd love to talk bikes with you.

My First Article For VeloNews Is Live!
I recently had the pleasure of working with Neal and Brian at VeloNews on a story about the incredible coaches and student-athletes at Marian University. You can read the piece here.
Although I hate bragging about my own work, I have to admit I'm really pleased with how the article turned out. But I think it owes less to my work as a writer and more to Marian Cycling Coach Dean Peterson's thoughtful, guiding hand and the tenacity and talent of his riders. Give it a read and let me know what you think.

Chicago baseball fans may be in for a long season
By Doug Halberstadt
Sports Columnist
I fully realize we are not even to the middle of May yet. That means it is probably way too early to start panicking. Technically, I'm probably not panicking; I'm just observant and concerned is all. In case you haven't seen the Major League Baseball standings recently, please allow me to point out that both teams from Chicago are firmly planted in the bottom of their respective divisions. Therein lies the cause for my concern.
First of all, on the North Side, the Cubs are already nine full games behind the division-leading St. Louis Cardinals. The Cards are 20-11. Somewhat ironically, the Cubs have the exact opposite win-loss record, 11-20 (at press time). The Cubs have dropped four straight and six of their last 10.
Meanwhile, the Sox aren't faring much better. They are six full games in back of the division-leading Kansas City Royals. The Sox are 12-17, and have incurred back-to-back losses and have split their last 10 games 5-5.
Both teams have dug themselves a bit of a whole early into the season. I'm afraid that if this trend continues, neither team will finish above .500 this year, let alone have any hopes of playing in the postseason. Things have to drastically change, and relatively soon, or the season could effectively over before the calendar turns to June.
Part of the problem for the Sox is run production. They are one of only two teams in the majors that have yet to score 100 runs. The Sox have 97 and Miami is the only team with fewer (94).
Head Coach Robin Ventura needs to find away to infuse some instant offense into his club.
His designated hitter, Adam Dunn, is batting a paltry .143 and only has 12 runs batted in. The usually reliable Paul Konerko is struggling so far this season as well. He leads the team with 15 runs batted in and his hitting below .250. I'd recommend Ventura light a fire under these guys before it's too late.
The Cubs, on the other hand, have scored 109 runs, but have surrendered 129. They have a team earned-run average of 3.84. That's chiefly the fault of their relieve staff. Out of the seven pitchers listed on their roster as relief pitchers, all of them have ERAs above 4.25. The highest of them belongs to Kyuji Fujikawa. He's pitched in 4.1 innings and given up 6 earned runs for a 12.46 ERA. The other reliever with a double-digit ERA is Kameron Loe. His is 10.80. Even their supposed bullpen ace, Carlos Marmol, has a lofty 6.17 ERA.
It's pretty plain to see why both of these clubs are in the cellar so soon. They are both suffering from deficiencies in key aspects of the game. Unless those needs get addressed soon, Chicago baseball fans could be in store for a very long and disheartening season.
