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 if the pick is a bust. But if Paxson picks Beasley...

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 what I got from his interview with Mac, Jurko &...

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 choices. That fancy new chicken sandwich sure...

So What Have I Missed? Bulls to Hire Collins and Cubs Streaking at Home

The other day, in the middle of nowhere, Georgia, I decided to take a second and check out espn.com on my cell. After all, "nowhere" gets 3G. My goal was to find out what time the Cubs game was starting, though instead I was greeted with the front page headline, "Bulls to hire Doug Collins...

Checking in on the Bulls and the Number One Pick

I haven't written about the Bulls lately because a) the Cubs have been playing well, b) there's been lots of Bears news, and c) the Bulls disgusted me this season. Awful. Just awful. But that's in the past. Lots has been going on lately and its time to check in. Mike D'Antoni didn't...

It's time to blow up the Bulls

Despite the victory over Utah the other night, I really think it's time to blow up the Bulls. It's still mind-boggling to me how sour this season has gone. Never in my wildest dreams would I have guessed that they'd miss the playoffs. And yes, I know that they still might make the playoffs...

Is it really time to blow up the Bulls? Mid-season analysis

I haven't written a word about the Bulls this season yet we're already at the half-way point. Truth is, there's been nothing to write about. Well, there's been plenty of stuff to write about, but momma always said "if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all...

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, but that was more due to his foot injury than...

NBA Draft: Y'all don't know how Joakim is gonna party with the Bulls!

Let me start by saying Joakim Noah seems like a nice kid. A really good basketball player, too. As an uber-athletic seven footer with long arms and high energy, he should fit in nicely with John Paxson's Bulls. He's a winner. Back-to-back champion, in fact. Now, he doesn't solve the Bulls low-post scoring...
