MODERN LIFE IS RUBBISH

Other Things Dale Sveum Is Not That Into

By Chris Ryan at

You can write what you want about Chicago Cubs manager Dale Sveum. He is probably not going to read it. He told Patrick Mooney of CSNChicago.com the following: “I don’t read the papers. I’m not a guy that tweets, or whatever you call that thing. I’m not a big computer guy. I don’t read the news. [During] my free time, I watch the NFL channel as much as I can … to keep up on [things] for fantasy reasons.”

That's probably a really good idea. I try to watch as much NFL channel as I can too, to keep up on things, for environmental policy reasons. I wonder what else Dale Sveum is not into. What other wonders of the modern world is he not a big guy about?

About Last Night: What Would Tebow Do?

In case you were out living a life of leisure, here's what you missed in sports on Thursday.

  • Tim Tebow capped a game-winning drive with a 20-yard touchdown run to give the Broncos a 17-13 win over the Jets. It would be easy to overstate the significance of this event, but I do think it's fair to say that, objectively speaking, I will spend the next few months looking for the face of Tebow in my frosted flakes.
