Ozzie Guillen has chosen to enter the 21st century in the way that brings him the most attention: he signed up for Twitter.  Although rumor has it his sons are posting a lot of his tweets, the bottom line is that he has jumped on another opportunity to make his ridiculous thoughts and feelings known [...]

As a member of Generation “I Don’t Have Time to Follow Real News”, its hard to find time in my day between work, following sports, and doing nothing to actually figure out what’s really going on in the world. That’s where Comedy Central’s Daily Show and Colbert Report come in. I love Colbert’s [...]

In honor of the Christmas holiday, here are my holiday wish lists for Santa from various people and teams in Chicago sports.  Enjoy!
Chicago Bulls: Someone who can shoot over 30% from the field, a new coach, and a big 2010 free agent (i.e. Wade, James, Bosh, Johnson, etc.).
Vinny Del Negro: Competence and a miracle.
Joakim Noah: [...]

I literally feel nauseous from watching the Bulls and Bears this season.  Bad coaches, lack of talent, poor effort, ineffective management…I need to stop before I throw my laptop at the wall and light all my Chicago sports paraphernalia on fire.  Anyways, the point of this post was that I found this great picture that [...]

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 [...]

Antoine Walker, former NBA player and Chicago high school hoops legend, has fallen on some hard times.  Although he made millions during his playing career, he has had all kinds of financial problems ranging from being robbed to owing millions in gambling debts.
Well the news for Antoine is about to get a lot worse.  In [...]

After watching this documentary about pretty much the saddest moment any sports fan can experience, I was inspired to make a list of the top ten worst moments in Chicago sports history.  Feel free to add any omissions in the comments.
10. Bears Lose to Dolphins and Ruin Undefeated Season

In 1985, the Bears were the best [...]

People in Chicago and around the country are upset and shocked over yesterday’s events.  In a stunning twist, Chicago was eliminated in the first round of voting for the 2016 Olympics.  That means they came in 4th, after many, including Vegas, said they were a lock to win.  How could this happen you ask?  Well [...]

Although he isn’t as active as some of our more annoying commenters, he still has good taste in sports blogs.  This was sent to me by an anonymous NQTC reader:

Well that didn’t take long.  After railing against print media and how its dying, Mariotti left the Sun-Times to take his lucrative gig at AOL Fanhouse and focus more on his awful, awful appearances on ESPN’s Around the Horn.  Apparently he thinks that he can save print media from extinction, however, since he is now [...]

As some of you noticed (or not), I have been absent from NQTC since last Sunday.  As a result, South Side Sheik and StevieY19 managed to maintain the site using dignity, research, and well-thought out arguments and analysis about serious topics in sports.  Booorrrring.  So I’ve returned to bring the integrity of the site back [...]

With Bears Camp opening this weekend, I thought this would be a good time to let you all in on a new website starting up dedicated solely to Jay Cutler and his off- and on-field shenanigans (hopefully winning shenanigans).  The site is called “Jay Cutler Superstar” and is written by one of the great Chicago [...]

Over the past week or so there have been some great Chicago sports quotes, and each one would have lent itself to a great post all on its own.  Unfortunately, I’m studying for some stupid test and I don’t have time to make a million posts for you idiots.  Thus, I have combined them all [...]

About a month ago, Deadspin ran a story about all the people that Sports Illustrated has declared the “Chosen One”.  It is a hilarious list.  Some of them worked out, and some of them were complete busts.  In honor of that list (which you should definitely check out), I have decided to do my own [...]

The Cubs played the Dodgers on Sunday Night Baseball on ESPN the other night.  As ESPN always does on those national telecasts, it broadcast many live views of Chicago landmarks.  Notice anything wrong with this one?

I’ll give you a hint, take a look at the building on the left.  It’s the Sun-Times building, right?  Well [...]
