This might be a few days late but who's counting? Here's my top albums for 2008. Rather than rank everything and do a simple "top ten", I'm just going to throw a bunch of albums into three bins. Also, I'm going to list these...

I like that the Cubs made a few moves yesterday, even though the moves themselves are a bit...curious. They obviously aren't content to sit back and hope the same roster will cruise to the playoffs with 97 wins again, and that's by far the most...

The Bears lost a heartbreaker to the Houston Texans today, 31-24, ending their 2008 season with a record of 9-7. The Bears weren't very good this year, but they had a chance right down to the last day of the season; and that's really all I was...

This team is thoroughly mediocre, but they keep winning and that's all that matters. Every time they take the field, I just can't get that damn Denny Green quote out of my head. You know the one. Kyle Orton was as ugly as his beard. He's confident...

The Bears need help to make the playoffs, and they got some serious help today: The Vikings lost to Atlanta, 24-17. The Bears "easiest" path to the playoffs required two Vikings losses and two Bears wins. One down, three to go. I'm not really...

I like the NBA, I really do. And I really want to like the Bulls; I try and try and try again. But I just can't get into them this year. I watch the Bulls, and I'm mostly disgusted. Poor disjointed play, a few flashes of brilliance, poor disjointed...

Bears Win! Offense was crap. Orton was sub-par; Forte was stuffed; receivers still suck royally. Lucky with a pair of huge pass interference calls. Lucky, because he wouldn't have caught them anyways. Turner's an idiot. What are you passing for...

I've never been a big fan of Thursday night football. It grinds my gears. I'm a traditionalist. I like my Bowl games on New Years Day, and I like my NFL football on Sundays. I let Monday Night Football slide because, well, Monday's suck and...

A free ticket to the Bears-Jags game landed in my lap today and I couldn't pass it up. (Thanks, Dave!) It was awfully cold out there, but it was a nice view of a much-needed win for the Bears. Some thoughts... Orton was solid. He's just a solid...

Here goes... The Bears chances for making the playoffs rose exponentially on Tuesday when The Great Girth in Minnesota known as "The Williams Brothers" were both suspended for the remainder of the regular season. Those two behemoths are imperative...

The Bears got beat by the Vikings pretty thoroughly tonight by a score of 34-14. The Bears started out well, scoring first on a 65-yard TD pass to Hester. But after blowing a first-and-goal at the one, the wheels came off fast. There's so much hate...

I'm anxiously awaiting the biggest Bears game of the year tonight. The Bears are visiting the Vikings tonight in an NFC showdown! How exciting. Well, at least on the surface. The Bears are trying to win a game on the road, in the garbage bag, to distance...

At least Detroit put up a fight. While watching today's Bears game, all I could think was, "holy crap, these guys are awful." How much do the Rams suck? Let me count the ways. Adewale Ogunleye had two sacks. It just goes to show, when you...

The Cubs signed Dempster to a 4-year deal worth $52 million dollars. It's a lot of money for a guy who's only had one good year in the last three, but overall I think its a pretty good deal. His underlying stats suggest his improvement last year...

For those of you who don’t know the Muskegon Big Reds you probably also don’t know that they are on one of the “ winningest ” high school football teams of all time, named to Sports Illustrated 's “ Best in State ” and just played a game this past...
