Going green -- large and green

We here at Sports Pros(e) are not just sports geeks who sit around all day trying to figure out which one of the Cardinals' closers by committee Tony La Russa will hand the ball to tonight. (Though if you have any inside info on that, please let us know.)

We also are music geeks and are basking in the afterglow of Lolla (as well as three days of sun and not enough SPF 45 in the right places). Besides the awesome sets of Okkervil River, Bloc Party and many more, we were impressed by the fest organizers' commitment to going green with all the recycling containers and whatnot.

So in that spirit, we now dust off a gently used joke and offer it up again ...

The White Sox on Wednesday hosted an appearance by a baby T-Rex to hype the show, "Walking with the Dinosaurs: The Live Experience," which opens an 11-day run at the United Center on Thursday.

Hearing this, we couldn't help but wonder what Carl Everett, who had several tours of duty on the South Side, would make of the whole spectacle. Might it actually turn him into a believer at last?

Carl, the truth is out there. Go find it.
