Spider-Man vs. Barack Obama in a Game of One-on-One

9 January, 2009 (13:52) | Barack Obama | By: Stormin' Norman Disciple

Yes, you read that correctly. Apparently Spider-Man is doing a special comic featuring Barack Obama and his evil twin. The Chicagoist has more on the story: Now we’ve seen everything. In honor of Barack Obama’s inauguration, Marvel Comics is publishing an issue of The Amazing Spider-Man in which Spider-Man helps prevent an evil plot against [...]

I’m tired and I can’t feel my toes, but it was worth it. Bears win in overtime thriller. Playoff hopes are still alive. F$%* the Packers. Barack Obama becomes the first African-American President-Elect to play a round of golf. Think about that for a minute. I know Gooden’s only gone for a week, but our [...]

Average Black Basketball Player Tabbed to Play Barack Obama in Upcoming Movie

11 December, 2008 (19:17) | Barack Obama | By: Stormin' Norman Disciple

Remember when the Bulls got some guy named Pete Myers in the 1990′s? Boy that guy was going to be really good. The next Michael Jordan perhaps? Some “experts” thought so. Well things didn’t exactly turn out the way. In fact, after a short, unexciting stint in the NBA, Pete Myers’ career ended without much [...]

Cubs won’t offer salary arbitration to Kerry Wood or Bob Howry. That means neither will return and Cubs fans will miss them. Well, one of them. Dusty Dvoracek is out for the season with a ruptured right biceps. Uh, ouch. Weis tells a recruit that he is returning as Notre Dame’s coach. Then points out [...]

The Bulls have a go-to guy. No, it’s not Larry Hughes. Barack Obama is seating the press corps in categories of Sox fans and Cubs fans. Oops, a Sox fan was placed in the Cub fan section. Some notes on the Bears. HHR is starting a site called Fan Foodie. It goes to each sports [...]

Hey, did you see that Bears-Packers game? Boy was that embarassing, right? I mean wow, I’m just glad I’m not a Bears fan right now (shit, I am a Bears fan). Hilarious old-time advertisement with Steve Garvey. Chief Illiniwek is back! Unfortunately there’s not much for him to cheer for this weekend, OSU killed the [...]

Arenas Tattoo Photo

13 November, 2008 (14:45) | Barack Obama | By: Stormin' Norman Disciple

On Monday we reported on the new tattoo that Gilbert Arenas is sporting. Well now there’s photo proof: Even though Gilbert didn’t support Barack just a month ago, its all good. I mean its not like there isn’t room on the Barack bandwagon and we all jumped on (except noted change-hater Real Stadiums Have Roofs). [...]

The Links–Bet With Your Heart Edition

Bulls lose to Cavs as Lebron drops 41. Stormin’ Norman loses five dollars to me. The White Sox have invited Obama to throw out the first pitch on Opening Day. Makes you wonder how many season ticket holders will be allowed to attend. Meanwhile Loul’s Dong thinks Obama should make it illegal to be a [...]

New president elected last night. Alexi Giannoulias talks about the pick up game he played with Obama yesterday. Hawks rookie Kris Versteeg sings a little song. Hilarious. Tremendous Upside Potential thinks the White Sox won the election. It just goes to show if you meet a Sox fan, assume their IQ is about 20 points [...]

Obama Gets Support From Annoying Bum

5 November, 2008 (00:00) | Barack Obama, Chicago Cubs | By: Stormin' Norman Disciple

Home Run Derby is running a story that Ronnie “Woo-Woo” Wickers is an Obama supporter: Seems unlikely that this guy is registered to vote or even has a real birth certificate. Either way this doesn’t necessarily bode well for Barack. Remember who Ronnie usually cheers for? Yeah the Cubs, and look how that’s turned out.

"Yes We Can" Have a College Football Playoff!

I’m sure most of you either saw Obama and McCain on Monday Night Football yesterday or heard about it. One of the last questions asked by Chris Berman (wtf?) was relating to sports and asked what each candidate would like to change in the world of sports. In an age where the government is increasingly [...]

Barack O’Balla Returns

In honor of the election Tuesday, I’m going to post this video I found of Barack Obama playing ball. Response to his last video was a bit lukewarm, though I felt he had excellent court vision. This video should convince you that you would pick him up in a playground game. He hits threes here, [...]

Why are we giving Larry Hughes minutes? Entitlement for his big contract? I don’t like it. Top Ten Chicago Sissies from a couple years ago. Some still are, but sissies don’t last that long in sports (for the most part) McCain mocks himself and Obama in front of Obama. Don’t worry, Obama does the same [...]

The Obama/Madden Connection

15 October, 2008 (19:09) | Barack Obama | By: NQTC

I don’t want to get too political here, but Chicago-Native and Presidential Candidate Barack Obama has decided to use his campaign funds in an interesting manner. TheHill.com reports that the Obama Campaign will be running ads in the Madden ’09 video game. The Obama campaign has purchased space in the popular Xbox 360 game “Madden [...]
