Joakim Noah and Derrick Rose Throw Down on 60-Year Old Man

24 November, 2009 (13:30) | Chicago Bulls | By: Stormin' Norman Disciple

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.

Rick Morrissey Is Driving The Joakim Noah Bandwagon, And There’s Room For a Few More

12 November, 2009 (09:35) | Chicago Bulls | By: Stormin' Norman Disciple

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 [...]

Rick Morrissey Actually EATS His Column [Video]

10 November, 2009 (20:28) | Chicago Bulls, Media | By: Stormin' Norman Disciple

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 [...]

Rick Morrissey Dips His Words in Salsa, Then Eats Them

10 November, 2009 (07:10) | Chicago Bulls, Media | By: Stormin' Norman Disciple

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 [...]

Noah Shows He’s Ready To Bang

30 October, 2009 (08:00) | Chicago Bulls | By: Stormin' Norman Disciple

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 Are The Bulls Being For Halloween?

27 October, 2009 (10:37) | Chicago Bulls | By: Stormin' Norman Disciple

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? [...]

ESPN Analysts Pick Derrick Rose for MVP? Even I’m Not That Crazy

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 [...]

Joakim Noah’s Hair Has Literally Condemned Him To Hell

16 October, 2009 (07:30) | Chicago Bulls | By: Stormin' Norman Disciple

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 [...]

Bulls Preseason Update

15 October, 2009 (12:00) | Chicago Bulls | By: Stormin' Norman Disciple

If you haven’t caught much of the Bulls preseason but want to know what’s going on with them, don’t worry.  I’ve got your back.  Before I do, however, I highly recommend checking out Kelly Dwyer’s Bulls Season Preview.  Anyways, here are some things of note so far in the Bulls hot 4-1 preseason start. Derrick [...]

So What Exactly Are We Supposed To Expect From The 2009-2010 Chicago Bulls?

20 August, 2009 (10:00) | Basketball, Chicago Bulls | By: Stormin' Norman Disciple

This year’s Bulls squad will be an interesting team.  Clearly they are waiting to make a splash in 2010 with all the money they have saved up, meaning that this season should probably be viewed as a rebuilding year.  The climactic end to last season and the emergence of Derrick Rose as a player on [...]

Noah Wears Shades To Protect From Sun at Lollapalooza

16 August, 2009 (08:29) | Chicago Bulls | By: Stormin' Norman Disciple

Or….he wears them to hide his “cashed out” eyes.  Just kidding, I can’t corroborate that claim with anything more than my gut.  It’s good to see he’s having fun this offseason though.  As opposed to previous years where he was getting arrested for possession of marijuana, this offseason we have only seen him with gorgeous [...]

Derrick Rose is apparently shooting between 500-1000 jumpers a day, 6 days a week.  On top of that, he is supposedly working on his 3-point range as well.  Good for the Bulls, bad for everyone else. [By The Horns] I love the WWE.  There, I said it.  Here is a list of the top ten [...]

Hey Joakim, Stop Bogarting That Joint

8 July, 2009 (11:00) | Basketball, Chicago Bulls | By: Stormin' Norman Disciple

Even though this text message is probably fake, I had to post it just because it’s hilarious: smoked weed with Joakim Noah last night….if he was half as fast to the basket as he is to grab a joint from me we’d have another championship on our hands Boom, roasted.  Get it?  Roasted?  He can [...]

Raptors Looking To Deal Bosh To Bulls (Internet Rumor Mill Spins Again)

11 June, 2009 (11:00) | Chicago Bulls | By: Stormin' Norman Disciple

A few days ago I had a conversation with NQTC reader Black Rob.  I sent him a link to a story about the Raptors trading Jason Kapono to the 76ers for Reggie Evans, a power forward.  I remarked “Does that qualify as news” after I sent the link.  He laughed because we both knew that [...]

The May Cubs TOOTBLAN report is out.  While the Cubs are stealing at a better rate than April (12/15), there were still a ton of baserunning errors to account for. [WV23] Brian Cole of the Bulls has been awarded the Team Physician of the Year.  Really?  They didn’t seem to catch that minor Deng injury [...]
