This entire season I have been saying that Bob Babich is terrible. I said it before the mainstream media picked up on it, and I continued harping on it all season. I wasn’t exactly being extremely insightful or anything. It was obvious to everyone that the Bears defense was not what it [...]

One of the best things on ESPN’s website is the column by the Ombuds(wo)man Le Anne Schreiber. It’s her job to call ESPN on all of their crap, not to mention sift through the e-mounds of complaints that the world-wide leader receives every day. She really does a great job and I highly [...]

In honor of Rickey Henderson getting into the Hall of Fame, here’s some classic Rickey moments. I’m not sure if they are all true, but they are believable either way. (Thanks to The Bad Guy for this link)
Oh you liked that poop story? Well here’s Part 2.
A nice long Bulls clip from the [...]

I just stumbled on two different hilarious pictures in the last 10 minutes that I felt I had to post. They are totally unrelated but both will make you laugh.
The first one is a movie poster that Cuzoogle photoshopped of Munich (via Zoner):
The second is a picture created by HHR regarding the story of [...]

There never seems to be a shortage of Ditka news in this city, and today is no different–though you can hardly call this news. After reporting a few weeks ago that some Chicago residents were pushing for Ditka to run for Governor, it now appears there is a push to have him named to [...]

If you are a reader of ESPN.com (I am, reluctantly) then you know about the recent renovation of their site. Obviously there are going to be a few bugs, but pre-writing stories before the game ends? That’s pretty shady. Well they clearly did that with regards to the Bulls game last night, [...]

The Winter Classic drew the highest ratings for a regular season NHL game since 1975. Just think if all those people at the Wrigley bars would have watched at home!
Angels are interested in Jermaine Dye. Oh, he might be traded? Something new!
Henderson and Rice are in, but Dawson is snubbed for the [...]

Eddy Curry is a fat, stupid slob, but this story is a little over the top. The New York Post (I know, I know, the Post is basically a tabloid, but you can’t miss this, trust me) is reporting that Eddy Curry is being charged with sexually harassing a chauffeur. Yeah you heard [...]

CBS decided to mic up Michigan State’s Tom Izzo for the Spartans’ game against Kansas Saturday. Most of the game we just heard Izzo screaming at his players to box out and push the ball, but after referee Steve Welmer hurt his foot in the first half, things got spicy.
Ever since the infamous [...]

The Blackhawks got a goal in each period and beat the Nashville Predators 3-1 at the United Center Sunday night. The win snapped a two game losing streak, including a loss to the Preds Saturday in Nashville.
Dustin Byfuglien got the scoring started in the first, only to have Nashville tie it up less than [...]

I’m not sure if you have heard about “Foodgate”, the recent Bulls tragedy (not counting what’s been occurring on the court). I avoided writing about it since I was hoping it would just go away, but the more I think about it, the more it reflects the sense that their is no real logic [...]

This video comes via Top Ten Chicago Sports. It is an interview with Da Coach when there were rumors he would be the next coach of the Bears. Not to say I don’t like Lovie, but Ditka just embodied this City’s gritty attitude. Too bad he was totally insane.

Illinois absolutely wrecks the Hoosiers. No matter how Illinois does this year (looks like they will be pretty good), it’s going to be fun to watch how horribly shitty Indiana is.
Marinelli gets hired as D-Line coach of the Bears. Can they please just give him Babich’s job?
Is Kenny Williams about to make a [...]

ESPN’s front page said something like “too much Tim Tebow and plenty of Percy Harvin…”; you don’t need to hear the rest. Everyone knows that the game last night was supposed to crown us a champion. But did it? I, for one, don’t think so.
As a fan of college football, and therefore a staunch opponent [...]
