In a nod to Carmen DeFalco, Jurko and Harry on Chicago’s ESPN Radio 1000, we’ll call this edition of Slammin’ Sam on Sports Media Links “The Afternoon Saloon.”
First, the continued fallout commentary from yesterday’s ejections of Mark Buehrle and Ozzie Guillen. Everybody likes to hear from the White Sox skipper, right?
Staying in Chicago, Dwyane Wade isn’t so sure that the Bulls organization is one he wants to be associated with, according to this report.
One thing is certain. Wade, LeBron and Joe Johnson are doing a lot of consorting and consulting this summer.
Finally, the two grandest stories of the weekend have to be the Indy 500 and college football’s hall of fame announcements.
Read about Badgers coach Barry Alvarez' election, as well as that of former Wolverine Desmond Howard.
Here is a different angle on the Indy 500 celeb crowd.
Thanks for stopping by! I’ll see you Tuesday.

Slammin' Sam on Sports Media Links
Happy Thursday, Everyone. Thanks for not giving Slammin’ Sam on Sports Media and Free Keon up for Lent. Today’s links are a little more locally focused for a change. In between, there’s plenty of national sports stories to talk about.
We start with the Olympics, of course.
Speed skater Shani Davis’ path toward gold began in Evanston where club founder Saunders “Sam” Hicks helped Davis ply his trade on the way to Davis’ defeat of Stephen Colbert.
From Shani Davis and Lindsey Vonn, the focus now shifts to a figure skating duel tonight.
On to topic No. 2. With pitchers and catchers reporting to warm baseball locales, White Sox mouthpiece A.J. Pierzynski says the South Siders did everything they could to lure Johnny Damon. Now the baseball’s in Damon’s glove.
While one player may be moving to the Windy City, another appears to be on his way out by this afternoon's NBA trade deadline.
Finally, I couldn’t get away, even if that meant a longer blog than usual, without saying RIP with an update on star recruit Rajaan Bennett. How sad.
