Boozer to the Bulls?

ESPN is reporting that a Carlos Boozer to Chicago in a four-team deal is on the table. They aren't giving specifics of yet, but they are basically reporting Boozer to Chicago, Hinrich to Portland and Tyrus Thomas to Utah. I don't want to get too...

Gordon Gone

Ben Gordon is signing a five-year deal worth $55 million dollars to play for the hated Detroit Pistons. I'm a little saddened by this. Gordon's not a superstar, or even an All-Star. He can't play defense to save his life, and he's not...

A Bulls Review on the Heels of the Greatest (First Round) Series Ever

Game Seven ended a little over 24 hours ago, and I'm kind of sad that the Bulls season is over. It seems kind of weird to say that, considering how much I loathed the team back in December, but its true. After the big trade , they morphed into a genuinely...

Great Time to be a Chicago Sports Fan

The Bulls and Hawks are looking good in the playoffs, the Cubs and Sox are both coming off playoff appearances and off to a decent start. Oh, and the Bears just traded for a franchise Quarterback, only two seasons removed from a Super Bowl appearance...

Shock and Awe: Bears Trade for Cutler

It's official, the Bears got Jay Cutler from Denver for Kyle Orton, two first rounders, and a third rounder. Denver's also sending a 5th rounder back. They certainly gave up a lot, but I love this deal for the Bears. A franchise QB is coming to...

First Van Lier, now Kerr

Arguably the two most popular pre-Jordan Bulls, guys who bleed red and black and have spent the majority of their lives in service to the Bulls, are gone. What a sad day for Chicago. First Norm Van Lier died at age 61, and now Johny "Red" Kerr...

Bulls overhaul roster; and I like it

No, they didn't get much closer to a 2009 championship with these moves, but they got a little better and freed some cap down the road. What's Old is New Again The Bulls brought back Brad Miller and Tim Thomas. I always liked Miller, I thought...

Why I can't get into the Bulls

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...

Quick Hits, Random Musings, Whatever

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...

Bulls Win Opener

I have to admit that I didn't watch more than 30 seconds of the Bulls preseason. Preseason basketball just doesn't do it for me. But I caught the season opener tonight, and it made lots of first impressions for the 2008-2009 season. Here goes...

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,...

Bulls take Rose

The Bulls, as expected, took Derrick Rose with the first pick in the 2008 NBA Draft. There's not much I can say about the pick that I haven't said before . Downey , today, said it best: Paxson can take the hometown kid, Rose, and not be skewered...

Vinny, Benny. Benny, Vinny.

The Bulls introduced Vinny Del Negro as their new head coach today. The choice isn't particularly inspiring but I'll take it. Vinny doesn't have any coaching experience, but he's Italian and he's got great hair. At least that's...

Indecisive Bulls lose out on another head coach

Jerry Reinsdorf is probably the type of guy that goes to McDonalds and looks at the menu for 20 minutes before ordering. Let's see...what do they have on the menu at this McDonalds.... a Big Mac, a Quarter Pounder, a double Quarter Pounder....so many...
