Is it time for the second round already?  How was that reintroduction to playoff hockey, Chicago?  After an amazing first round victory against Calgary, the Blackhawks face their second straight opponent from north of the border.
Calgary and Vancouver took their battle for a division title down to the end of the regular season, and Chicago [...]

1) Rod Beck’s Mullet- A 5-5 tie this week curbed the Mullet’s strut a little bit, but not so much that he didn’t try and suck all of us poor bastards into $50 bets.  That’s like all the money I’ve won betting against Chicago teams with Stormin’ Norman the last few years!  Kerry Wood and [...]

The Bulls are a decent team right now and show a lot of promise.  They may even become legitimate championship contenders down the road (way down the road).  That’s where former Bull Randy Brown comes in.  He was a reliable bench player on 3 of the Bulls championships.  Apparently he has fallen on some tough [...]

White Sox beat the Mariners behind the long ball.  What other method do they even use?  [Sun-Times]
Chicago lost to Arizona 10-0 yesterday.  10-0? We couldn’t even Gould to kick one lousy field…wait, that’s the Cubs score?  [Tribune]
No suspension for Rajon Rondo after his missed block/intentional foul/flagrant foul/slap of Brad Miller in Game 5.  Garnett’s reaction?  [...]

I’m in pretty bad shape right now, and I’m not even talking about the Bulls game.  I have a fever and on top of that I have a 25 page paper due in about 24 hours.  I don’t really have energy or time to get too in depth about last night’s game, but here is [...]

Hey Yo! The Bad Guy himself is here to discuss a couple guys you might be able to acquire on the cheaper side before they start to blow up, and some others who you won’t mind watching continue to suck on some other dude’s team.

After refreshing ESPN’s hockey playoff schedule just over 30 times, I finally figured out that the Blackhawks will start their series with Vancouver on Thursday night in Canada.  The series will shift to Chicago for Game 3 on Tuesday, May 5th for the first second round playoff hockey game in the United Center since the [...]

3 NBA coaches were fined for bitching about the refereeing.  Guess who was one of them?  I’ll give you a clue.  It rhymes with Cock Shivers. [ESPN]
Will everyone just shut up about Soriano batting leadoff?  I agree that he should be hitting 3rd, but that doesn’t mean he isn’t extremely effective in the leadoff role.  [...]

The answer is yes.  Take a look at this pregame report for a Blackhawks game from a few weeks ago.  Wow.

Apparently Barack Obama shot hoops with the UConn Women’s Basketball team yesterday.  Although reporters were not allowed to film the pick-up game, it appears that Barack did not lose to a girl:
Who won? Point guard Renee Montgomery offered the only report.
“He did!” she said. “The president can shoot!”
Whew, that would have been a bad one.  [...]

We were able to get a little closer look at what goes on behind the scenes with the Cubs after Mark DeRosa shared the fact that the Cubs have a team fantasy football league last summer.  Bleed Cubbie Blue has now offered us another look at the Cubbies.  This one is is a bit less [...]

The Blackhawks beat the Flames 4-1 to advance to the second round for the first time since 1996.  They’ll face the Vancouver Canucks.  [ESPN]
ESPN collects draft grades from across the interwebs and gives each team a GPA.  ESPN’s GPA=Fail. [Awful Announcing]
Four things to like and four things not to like about the Bears draft.  This [...]

After it seemed like the Bears would never make a draft choice, trading out of their only first day pick, Jerry Angelo did a solid job of filling needs with talented players.
Starting with defensive tackle Jarron Gilbert Angelo addressed the defensive line, which he called the “cornerstone of the franchise.”  Gilbert weighs in at 288 [...]

Ok this post is not directed towards myself, since I obviously already love the guy.  He has a cannon for an arm and is pretty accurate with the football.  The problem some people have is that they think he goes out and parties too much and has a bad attitude.  In regards to the first [...]

Everyone around the league thinks Fukudome is a bust after his disappointing season last summer.  Cubs fans feel the pain most of all, since a ton of us went out and bought a myriad of Fukudome merchandise.  Whether you just bought a headband, or went all out and got an authentic jersey, I’m sure you’re [...]
