How come everyone thinks they are a Blackhawks expert all of a sudden?  Anyways, here is commentor DC Blackhawks’ take on whether the Hawks overpaid for Toews.  Enjoy!
With the recent blockbuster signings of the Blackhawks future and the criticisms of over paying, I primarily refute the idea that the Hawks overpaid for Captain Jonathan Toews.  [...]

It looks like the Bulls are actively shopping Tyrus Thomas to the Knicks in a potential trade.  According to Yahoo Sports, the deal would look something like this:
For starters, multiple league executives believe the Chicago Bulls’ shopping of forward Tyrus Thomas(notes) could result with him moving sooner than later. As Thomas has rehabbed a broken [...]

Ron Artest was a little embarrassed about the interview he did with The Sporting News.  In that interview, he admitted to drinking during games and wanting to fight Ben Wallace.  Wow, I can understand why he would want to clear that up since those are some pretty controversial statements.  Have at it Ron:
Artest said Thursday [...]

Last night while watching the Bulls-Pistons game, announcers Neil Funk and Stacey King, in mentioning Jonas Jerebko, brought up his Swedish heritage. While they did not go much further than to mention his being drafted from Sweden and this being his rookie year, it got me thinking… “What if they had taken the same approach [...]

I’m not sure if it’s corn, but I am sure this is a lot of effort to show love for your team.  I don’t know if anyone has told the owners of this farm in Spring Grove, Illinois, but the Bears suck.  Making that maze this season is like Rule 5 Draftee buying Bulls season [...]

NQTC Reader JavierSandooski (formerly known as Ethan), is helping us cover some of the pressing and serious issues in Chicago Sports that StevieY19 or I normally write about.  Please show him the same courtesy and respect he always shows us in the comments-so basically none.  Enjoy!
Imagine if the Cubs locked up Alfonso Soriano, Milton Bradley [...]

Whoever made this video has too much time on their hands.  But with Tiger dominating the news 24 hours a day, isn’t that proof that we all have too much time?  See what I did there?  I’ll shut up and let you enjoy the video.

For those of you who don’t watch “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia”, I highly recommend it.  For those of you that do, bear with me while I explain the D.E.N.N.I.S. system.  In a recent episode of Always Sunny, Dennis explained his “foolproof system for getting any chick’s undying love”.  Here are the basic steps of [...]

Yesterday, we reported that Derrick Rose won Victoria’s Secret’s “Chicago’s Sexiest Athlete” award.  But come on now, did you really think that an election in Chicago would go off without some kind of scandal?  No Spain, No Gain has the details, and they aren’t pretty.  Apparently the Bulls site is reporting Derrick Rose won, but [...]

It only took us 11 years, but the Big Ten has finally broken through in the Big Ten-ACC Challenge.  Finally a reprieve from articles and posts about how the Big Ten is so overrated after 6-to-5 losses in the Challenge, despite consistently impressive post-season performances.  Let the ubridled hype commence! 
Alright maybe not, but it still [...]

I feel like this one is hit or miss.  With all the stupid crap out there about all the terrible Bears quarterbacks over the years, you have to be careful not to waste your time with the dumb ones.  I thought it was pretty funny though, it manages to mock Cutler instead of pretending like [...]

It’s too bad the Bulls can’t seem to win any games, but there is some good news.  Rose was awarded “Chicago’s Sexiest Athlete” by Victoria’s Secret and Joakim Noah was on the cover of GQ France.  There must be some confusion about Noah, since I’m pretty sure GQ guys are usually well-dressed and good-looking, but [...]

Ron Artest is famous for being insane.  Did he really see someone stab someone to death over a basketball game as a kid?  Did he really run into the stands over spilled beer?  Does he really think he’s a good rapper?  It’s basically accepted as a fact that he took a job at Circuit City [...]

So here is the audio to that damning voicemail Tiger left for his mistress. It doesn’t sound good for Woods.  After the video, enjoy Mr. Big Shot’s take on the situation and what it will really mean for Tiger’s career. Enjoy!

Some might argue that the Tiger Woods story has officially lost sports [...]

Before I answer the question about Chicago moving on from Ben Gordon, let me throw some numbers at you:
2008-2009 (w/Ben Gordon):
FG%: .457 (16th)
PPG: 105.1 (8th)
Opponents FG%: .458 (15th)
2009-2010 (w/o Ben Gordon):
FG%: .433 (27th)
PPG: 91.4 (27th)
Opponents FG%: .457 (18th)
The obvious answer to the question posed is that this city was over him about 6 months [...]
