Without Noah, the Bulls are possibly the worst rebounding team I’ve ever had to watch (obviously that’s an exaggeration, but it sure feels like it).  Ironically enough, he’s making a great case for himself as the Bulls MVP this season from the bench, as the team looks like it won’t win a single game in [...]

When my hometown Chicago Bulls drafted Joakim Noah ninth overall that summer night back in 2006, I yelled and cursed at the television. When Noah was a Florida Gator, he was one of my least favorite college basketball players of all time. And he did a lot [...]

I have absolutely no idea why this video was made, but I definitely laughed out loud a few times while I watched it.  There are obvious issues like why Bill Russell is dressed like a doctor and Noah having straight hair. It does address all of Noah’s exploits from smoking weed to talking shit [...]

Excuse me if I don’t cover much of the first three quarters of this game, but  I was spending time with my grandmother who is extremely ill. Thus, most of my impressions from the first three quarters were based on what the radio team was telling me on the drive back into the city.
Without further [...]

To have expected the Bulls to be any better than 7-11 at this point in the season would have been delusional.  Like I have said 10 million times, the Bulls are at best a .500 team (maybe 39-43 wins), and they just finished the toughest part of their schedule (5th toughest opponent winning percentage so [...]

The Bulls game was not a pretty affair last night, and I’m not just talking about the blowout the Cleveland LeBrons put on Chicago. Noah, frustrated with his play perhaps but also annoyed with LeBron’s showboating and celebrating too much, started barking at LeBron from the bench. LeBron took exception to that and [...]

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 [...]

Just kidding, Greg Oden isn’t 60, but he sure looks like it, doesn’t he?  Anyways, even though the Bulls lost (badly), these posterizations of Oden by Noah and Rose were awesome.  Enjoy.

Before I start in on this post (which is mostly going to be about how Noah should be an all-star this season), I just want to throw out a huge “I told you so”.  I have loved Noah since day 1 (yes Ethan, I’m happy we took him over Spencer Hawes), and now that everyone [...]

Remember the story earlier today about Morrissey showing up at Bulls practice with salsa claiming he was going to literally eat his negative column about Noah?  Back in 2007, Rick Morrissey of the Chicago Tribune claimed he would eat his column with salsa on it if Noah even proved to be “useful”.
Well not only did [...]

We really don’t like most Chicago sportswriters around here.  Beyond a couple bearable ones, its amazing that these people still have jobs.  Their sensational, negative, agenda-filled columns are like nails on a chalkboard, but unfortunately we rely on them for information since they are the only ones with access to the locker rooms and clubhouses [...]

Were you wondering all summer if you were going to see the plodding unfocused Joakim Noah this season or the high-energy, rebounding Noah we saw in the Celtics series?  Well based on last night’s 10 point, 10 rebound fantastic performance, it looks like we can put some of those doubts to rest.  But how to [...]

What would be the most appropriate costumes for the Bulls to wear for Halloween?  That is the question I tried to answer when writing this.  And I know, Noah looks exactly like Sideshow Bob, but that didn’t seem like the best costume for him in my opinion.  Here they are:
Derrick Rose as Jesus

Sacreligious? Maybe.  True? [...]

Are you getting excited for the NBA season to start?  I know I am.  As fun as watching the Cubs suck, football once a week, and the occasional obsession with online Texas Hold ‘Em are, there’s nothing like the NBA.  One of the best parts of the beginning of the season are the predictions people [...]

Some crazy religious Baptist church has been in the news of late for the upcoming release of their new book.  The Amazing Grace Baptist Church in North Carolina is quite the organization.  Their website goes on and on about how all kinds of athletes and celebrities are going to hell for various reasons.  Of the [...]
