The Bulls lost a ridiculous game to the Miami Heat last night.  D-Wade won it with a steal and a runner three.  That’s my favorite shot!  [ESPN]
The Big Ten handed out its postseason awards last night.  Travis Walton beat out Chester Frazier for Defensive Player of the Year.  Travesty!  Some Illini got recognition though.  [Big [...]

Joe Morgan is a complete idiot.  His hard-headed stubborn refusals to look at anything beyond what he deems to be true has ruined many games that he has called for ESPN.  His unbearable ego and sense of self-importance make me want to throw up, and even inspired the well-respected and now-defunct FireJoeMorgan.com.  Well I don’t [...]

Saw this over at Wrigleyville23 and couldn’t resist passing it on.  First baseman Micah Hoffpauir is hoping to be one of the last few Cubs to make the opening day roster this year.  Saturday he was trying to spread a little good will with the guys via a little ball-tap on Carlos Zambrano.

Who knows what [...]

It has become clear over the past few weeks that I have a man-crush on John Salmons.  I wrote last week making the case for Salmons to get minutes over Deng at the 3 spot.  With Deng’s injury and his season in jeopardy, the question takes on a new angle.  Instead of discussing whether Salmons [...]

The logjam that made up the Big Ten standings was finally sorted out yesterday afternoon when Wisconsin beat Indiana.  Going into the weekend Penn State could have been seeded as high as the two, but the Nittany Lions ended up with the six.  Ohio State could have been as low as the eight seed, but [...]

As many of you noticed last week, Stormin’ Norman will be writing for another blog in addition to his antics on this site.  Of course having two blogs means he’s twice as dorky and half as likely to ever know the love of a woman again.  The new blog is called Pippen Ain’t Easy and [...]

The Bulls are now in the driver’s seat for the 8th and final playoff spot in the East.  The playoff picture is very tight at the bottom, however.  There are 8 teams within 6 games of each other ranging from Detroit in 6th place to the Knicks in 13th place.  With all those teams having [...]

Bulls week in review.  It was a pretty good week. [Pippen Ain't Easy]
An awesome analysis of Jerry Angelo’s draft prowess.  I’d say overall he’s done a very good job. [Windy City Gridiron]
The first 3 cuts were made by the Cubs.  Meh. [BCB]
TO signed with the Bills.  I’m sure it will work out much better than [...]

First of all, I had no idea that Pacman Jones had signed up to be on Pros vs. Joes for the upcoming season.  Wait, let’s back up.  Pros vs. Joes is still on the air?
So things didn’t go too well for Pacman in Dallas, but at least he can relax and have some fun on [...]

A couple nights ago Chris Paul pulled the kind of move that you would only try and could likely only pull off on your little bro.  Thankfully, as Michael Scott would say, YouTube was there covering the game.  H/T to Ball Don’t Lie.

The first tickets for the NCAA Tournament will be punched this weekend, as at least a couple of conference tournaments will wrap up.  And Cornell is already in!  There is also plenty of bubble action and some games vital to seeding in the Big Ten Tournament.  Hey, Duke and North Carolina play this weekend, how [...]

Over the last couple of weeks, Vinny Del Negro and John Paxson have been going at it over Derrick Rose’s 4th quarter minutes. Vinny had been keeping Rose on the bench in crucial late-game situations and Paxson was upset. Before I go any farther, I think it’s obvious to 99% of people that Paxson is [...]

I was going to bust out my RP preview, but then I figured why waste your time. Some people like to take the top tier guys like Jonathan Papelbon and Joe Nathan early, while others like to wait and grab the Mike Gonzalezs and Trevor Hoffmans much later on. Either way, there’s no point in [...]

That four seed looked pretty good next to Illinois in the latest bracketology from ESPN.  Well after last night it will take quite a bit to get a four seed or better in the big dance.
Last night I was hearing how Penn State was trying to play its way into the tournament, while Illinois had [...]

Dear NQTC-Reading White Sox Fans,
In light of all recent chatter on the site about our White Sox coverage (or lack thereof), I feel that it is necessary to address the issue of the White Sox as it relates to NQTC.  I want to dispel any myths on StevieY19 and my stance on the Sox and [...]
