Apparently its that time of year again, since at least one Seattlest contributor witnessed a few crow attacks on civilians in the past week, including an attack on his own feeble, defenseless person by a pair of crows on the north side of Freeway Park earlier this week.

Let it be noted that occasionally, Seattlest gives you advance notice about something. Just occasionally though, not often, so don't get too used to it. more ›

Freddy pitched seven scoreless innings for the Chicago White Sox to help bring the first World Series Championship to the Southside since 1917 in his first full season with the team.
