I grew up in the far western Chicago suburbs. Lived in Chicago proper for 7 years prior to moving up the Madison, WI. I work at the University of Wisconsin as a biomedical researcher. I've been a Cubs fan since 1969 when I was 7 years old.

Cub-themed Firefox add on
I stumbled across this Firefox add on earlier today. It turns your Firefox browser into a Cub-themed one. It's not perfect. I find the bookmark panels to be a bit jarring on the eyes for example, but as Cub fan I find it kind of cool. Hopefully it'll be tweeked a bit by the add on creator.

Video analysis of Prior

OK, here's my very first diary. I hope people find it worth taking a look at. I ran across a link to this article over on the Cubs MLB board and thought it would be worth bringing to people's attention over here:
Carlos Gomez has broken up video of Prior's delivery as it's changed from 2001-2007 and found some clear differences that might explain some of his problems.
As there have been a couple of recent posts concerning Priors delivery past and present I thought this might be a useful addition. Not being very knowledgeable about the role of mechanics in pitching (other than to know that they play a significant role in a pitcher's success or failure) as others here are, I can't say that Gomez's conclusions are relevant. Comments would be appreciated.
