The Glories of Local Media

>> Thursday

This morning getting ready for work, I caught Fox News Chicago's 7-9 broadcast where their "on the town" reporter was at a diner close to the United Center participating in my favorite local news segment, "Ask the locals how the local team is going to do." Needless to say, no one had a negative or even lukewarm opinion on the Bulls' chances.

But that wasn't what got me. The on-the-town reporter, some blonde who I could tell probably couldn't name three players on the current team held up a plate of rather unattractive-looking sausage and eggs and loudly proclaimed,
"And the owner of this diner is SO CONFIDENT that the Bulls are going to win, that he's offered free breakfast to the players tomorrow!"
I found it laughable 1.) Because figuring a $7.00 breakfast for a 12-15 man roster is still looking at topping off around 100 bucks, and 2.) Because professional athletes making millions of dollars are so pinched for money that they'll play extra hard tonight to get a few strips of free bacon and some hash browns tomorrow morning. It's the NBA. They're not a bunch of 17-year-olds going to State.
No word on whether the players will also receive free coffee top-offs and get called "hon" by the likely-sassy waitress.

Just as long as Michael Sweetney gives his bacon away. He's too fat already. Tyrus Thomas could probably use it.
