Michael Barrett is Okay

Can't say the same for the Bulls' Kirk Hinrich (story).

CHICAGO -- Chicago guard Kirk Hinrich missed the Bulls' game against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Saturday night because of a groin injury.

Hinrich, averaging 14.5 points and 5.8 assists, left late in the third quarter of Friday's 107-97 victory at Toronto after he aggravated a condition that had been nagging him for a week when he tried to stop T.J. Ford's penetration.

We've just about recovered from the drinking we did after the Cubs finalized their deal with Jason Marquis and even though we can't recognize ourselves for the grit and beards now covering our faces, we never fail to see a good neutering/castration/man-being-raped joke.
