Meanest Girl Ever Beats Up Other Girls On Soccer Field

6 November, 2009 (10:01) | Soccer, Video | By: Stormin' Norman Disciple

This video is just insane and needs no introduction.  I’d pick that girl to play on my soccer team, that’s for damn sure.

Bulls Stun Cavs in Cleveland, Begin to Discover Identity

6 November, 2009 (07:00) | Chicago Bulls | By: Stormin' Norman Disciple

As you can see from the picture, the Bulls and Cavs game was a physical battle.  The Bulls managed to pull it out 86-85 after a very poor final possession by Cleveland, but not before Hinrich lost a good amount of blood.  More importantly to note, I think we are learning the character of this [...]

Michael Jordan Was Once a Goofy College Kid

5 November, 2009 (07:47) | Michael Jordan | By: Stormin' Norman Disciple

I know it seems crazy to imagine, but once upon a time, Jordan was not the polished superstar billionaire we see today.  This picture is apparently a photo of a very young MJ dancing around with an umbrella in what loooks to be a dorm room (maybe his?).  Enjoy!

Final Blogpoll Week 9

4 November, 2009 (12:00) | College Football | By: StevieY19

Florida eye-gouges Bama and Texas to jump to the top spot, while Texas gets the most first place votes.  What does it mean?  Bad time for a bye week, Bama.  Also, don’t almost lose to Indiana.  Full poll and analysis at CBS Sports.  NQTC gets a mention!  Apparently I am very much in agreement with [...]

NBA Power Rankings [Week 1]

4 November, 2009 (09:24) | NBA | By: Stormin' Norman Disciple

Here are my NBA Power Rankings as of today.  I’m not like ESPN or any of the mainstream guys that do power rankings.  This is more a snapshot of where the teams fall at this moment, not where they should be or might be.  Also I will only be doing the top 16, since who [...]

When Politics and Sports Cross Paths, I Get Even More Controversial [Barack Obama Edition]

4 November, 2009 (08:02) | Barack Obama, Basketball | By: Stormin' Norman Disciple

Usually we don’t address politics too often on this site beyond the occasional “Barack’s got court vision” post.  I read something last week though that got my attention about our President.  It was about something seemingly innocuous: Obama’s apparent love of golf.  The love has gone a bit far, however.  As of last Monday, he [...]

Lance Briggs not only collects comic books, but writes his own personal blog about them which he updates almost daily.  He is fast becoming my favorite Bear (Cutler mancrush aside).  [Zoner]
The Bulls beat the Bucks, but it wasn’t pretty.  I mean like “I wish I hadn’t watched” ugly. Except for Deng’s 24-20 performance that is.  [...]

What Lindsey Hunter Should Have Told Tyrus Thomas

3 November, 2009 (08:39) | Chicago Bulls | By: Stormin' Norman Disciple

Now that Ben Gordon is gone, what will we argue about around here?  Oh that’s right, we’ve still got Mr. Lightning Rod of Controversy Tyrus Thomas.  Ever since Pax drafted him, he has proven to be nothing more than a waste of god-given talent.  Although its still  bit early to say he’s busted, I think [...]

The Bulls and Bears Each Taught Me One Important Lesson This Weekend

2 November, 2009 (10:30) | Chicago Bears, Chicago Bulls | By: Stormin' Norman Disciple

The Bulls have started 1-2, which in all honesty is a miracle considering they played San Antonio at home and Boston and Miami on the road.  The Bears on the other hand, have now moved to 4-3 after a solid pummeling of the lowly Browns.  It was a very busy sports weekend here in Chicago, [...]

Jonathan Toews and Adam Burish are Dumb and Dumber

2 November, 2009 (08:00) | Chicago Blackhawks | By: Stormin' Norman Disciple

Toews and Burish both rode the bench for the Hawks Friday with injuries, but that didn’t stop Chicago from downing the Canadiens 3-2.  Not only are they dominating on the ice (shaky goalie-work aside), but they seem to be gelling as a team off the ice as well.  Does a couple of idiots dressing up [...]
