Stuff I Like: Sports! (not the album by Huey Lewis)

This might be the most obvious "Stuff I Like" post imaginable. Of course I like sports, I write a freaking sports blog. What prompts this post is the fact that the Olympics are over, and I must admit that I'm not that much of a fan and I'm...

7/31/2008: Quick hits on MLB, the NFL and the NBA

Ain't nothing like random thoughts by a faceless dude on the internets, so here goes: Today was the MLB Trade Deadline, and this might have been the most active trade deadline in terms of star power ever. Three first ballot hall of famers (Pudge,...

Bears, Bulls: Signs, Signs, Everywhere there's Signs

There was a few big signings in Chicago sports this week. Starting with the most recent, the Bulls signed Andres Nocioni to a five year deal worth $38 million. It's a good deal for both the Bulls and Noce. Noce had a pretty awful playoffs this past year...

Vacation's Over: Did I miss anything?

Labor Day Potpourri

Today was Labor Day and I just got back from a nice weekend with the family, which of course means it's time to catch up on weekend sports. The Bears made final cuts. Nothing surprising and the most notable name cut was former first rounder Michael Haynes...

Lousy Weekend for Jerry Angelo

Wow, what a terrible weekend for the Bears. First of all, Thomas Jones has reportedly stopped his offseason training program and is "receptive" to a trade. His new agent, Drew Rosenhaus, is becoming a thorn in the Bears' paw. Last weekend, contract negotiations...

Bulls, Tank in Trouble

Seems like Tank Johnson is fond of his gun, and he doesn't care who knows about it. "You ain't the only one with a Glock. If it wasn't for your gun and your badge, I'd kick your ass," he was reported saying to a police officer when his limo was getting...

Bulls robbed, Bears altercate

The Bulls were robbed tonight in the closing seconds of their loss to Portland. Luol Deng missed a potential game-winning shot, Andres Nocioni went for the rebound at the same time as a Theo Ratliff, and it appeared by the replay that Ratliff had knocked...

Thoughts on a beautiful Labor Day
