DeVry Shuttle Question

Does anyone know if the DeVry Shuttle runs on Friday's?  I planned on using the shuttle for tomorrows game and just read on Cubs.com that it only runs on weekends and night games.  Do the Cubs consider Friday games to be a weekend game?  If not, does anyone have any advice on where to park a Chevy Avalanche in the city?   Any help would be greatly appreciated.  There, I met the 75 word limit.

Work visas for suspended players

I don't know if anyone else saw this or not but I thought it was diary worthy.  The AP put out an article today discussing the work visas for MLB players who have failed drugs tests due to PED's.  I read the article on Yahoo! sports and here is the link if you want to read the entire thing.  http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/news.  

Apparently any controlled substance triggers a review of these work visas.  Donald Fehr the beloved players union president said he would "attempt to make sure all foreign players are treated the same as U.S. citizens."  

My question is why??  Foreign players are NOT the same as U.S. citizens and should NOT be treated the same.  There are rules and regulations in place that govern these types of visas.  Why should foreign players be allowed to stay in the U.S. if they viotate these rules when anyone else would be made to leave?

I'd love to hear other opintions on this.  Hence the diary.
