I don’t know how many of you read Peter King, but I mostly try to avoid him.  It’s not that he isn’t a good sportswriter, he is actually one of the better ones.  The problem is that he is in bed with Brett Favre (that might be literal, I mean he really loves Favre).  As [...]

So everyone is making a big deal out of Cubs fans booing Milton Bradley in the first 6 weeks of the season.  Some are looking to blame blogs, and some just think the booing is inappropriate.  Either way the question of whether Cubs fans are too quick to boo has arisen again.
Booing is not necessarily [...]

Everyone knows about the…odd…classic White Sox jerseys that there have been over the years.  Some have been better than others, but all baseball fans know they are interesting.  There’s the classic horizontal striped:

And of course who can forget the capri pants and collared shirt phase:

But everyone has seen those classy looks before.  After having thought [...]

Some prick robbed a Little League concession stand of thousands of dollars worth of equipment and food.  That’s got to automatically lock you into going to hell.  [Southtown Star]
Cubs win the Peavy v. Harden matchup.  I still want Peavy though. [Tribune]
Could D.J. Moore start in front of Nathan Vashar and Corey Graham?  But he’s a [...]

The Cubbies have been playing mostly like shit so far this season, despite many preseason experts and fans picking them to win the National League.  Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on how you look at it), the reasons for their crappiness aren’t really that complex.  In case they somehow escaped you, here are those reasons in [...]

What an unbelievable game at the United Center last night.  After squandering a two goal lead and falling behind 5-4 with under eight minutes remaining, the Hawks rallied to win 7-5.  I’m a little short on time, so here are a few videos.
First, the anthem from last night:

Here are the highlights from a guy with [...]

I don’t envy anyone who missed the Hawks game last night.  Chicago won a 7-5 thriller to advance to the Western Conference Finals for the first time since 1995.  Kane had a hat trick. [Sun-Times]
Indians beat the White Sox in an AL Central pillow fight.  [Yahoo]
The Bears signed ex-Lions tight end Michael Gaines.  Quick scouting [...]

Great opportunity tonight for the underdog Blackhawks to close out the series against Vancouver and advance to the Western Conference Finals.
The Blackhawks won Game 5 in Vancouver by playing smart hockey and staying out of the penalty box, while the Canucks allowed the Hawks power play to give them a commanding lead in the series.  [...]

Big Baby Davis pushes a little kid after his game winner.  The Celtics are such bitches. [Docksquad]
The Cubs finally won one yesterday.  Finally something went right. [Sun-Times]
So at first they said he would be okay, then they said 4-6 weeks, but now it looks like Ramirez is going to miss about 2 months.  Oh and [...]

Here are 2 Derrick Rose videos I have been sitting on for a while.  The first one is Derrick Rose dropping the puck at a Hawks playoff game.  While that one is fun to watch, the second video has his explanations for all the ink he has (more interesting in my opinion).  Enjoy!

I think this is giving me a headache, but both make me smile so whatever.

In honor of Michael Jordan hitting his amazing Game 5 shot over Ehlo in 1989 (20 years ago yesterday) to send the Bulls to the Eastern Conference Semifinals, here is a hilarious video of what REALLY happened in that Cavs timeout.  Boy that Ehlo has a lot of heart, what a scrappy player!

That felt like one of the quickest hockey games I had ever watched.  One goal for Vancouver in the second period off a blocked shot provided the only scoring for the majority of the contest, but it seemed like time was running in that accelerated video game speed.
Part of that must have been the lack [...]
