By Paul M. Banks is Founder/President of The Sports Bank.net, Say what you want about the 2010 Chicago White Sox, but at least they hold true to form. Everyone talks about how up-and-down they are, how they (warning: a cliché as painful as Jim Belushi coming) “are consistently inconsistent.” But it’s not entirely true. About [...]

Lane Kiffin has taken the SEC by storm since taking over as head coach of Tennessee.  Not on the field exactly, losing to Florida and starting 1-2, but off the field Kiffin is firing shots at all takers.  He accused Urban Meyer of violating NCAA rules in front of a bunch of people, violating rules [...]

I was less eager to write the obituary for the 2009 White Sox than Stormin Norman was when he gleefully leapt off the Cubs bandwagon earlier this month.  There was nothing cathartic for me in coming to grips with the Sox demise. Stormin Norman’s at least freed his mind from caring for a team that [...]

Jay Cutler cleans up pretty nice.  It appears he “got his hair did” for a magazine cover. [Jay Cutler Superstar] Michael Jordan’s perfection explained. [Hardwood Paroxysm] The best fantasy football team names by city.  Yeah, mine is in there for Chicago.  “Offense is not our Forte”.  Bam. [Detroit4lyfe] Ted Lilly was nominated by his teammates [...]

Mark Buehrle tossed a perfect game today against the Tampa Bay Rays, making it the first gem since Randy Johnson’s in 2003 and the 17th ever…or 18th, I don’t know.  Anyway, quite the accomplishment from the lefty after throwing a no-no a couple of years back that was damn close to a perfect game as [...]

Jake Peavy says no to the White Sox.  How embarassing. [Smells Like Mascot] As embarassing as a 20-0 loss?  I don’t know for sure, but the Sox had a BAD day yesterday. [Deadspin] The Bulls have a new GM, sort of, even though Pax is still kind of running things.  Either way, the new guy [...]

Shaq flirts with a box of donuts.  Don’t break the diet! [BDL] The Hawks choked last night, but since they got the split in Vancouver they can hold serve by winning Game 4, so no worries. [Sun-Times] Would you like to name the Cubs Class A Chiefs ballpark for a day?  It won’t cost you [...]

Whether you’re a North Sider or a South Sider, this day has been a long time coming.  Every winter seems so long, waiting for the new season to start.  Not that I don’t love football and the NBA, but there’s something magical about baseball season. It’s a new year for everyone.  From the Cubs down [...]

Who is Dempster giving an hj to?  Who cares, this GIF is hilarious. [Luol's Dong] The Bulls split their 2 games this week, and it was not pretty. [Pippen Ain't Easy] That “billionaire” who wanted a piece of D-Wade was really just some viral marketing campaign from Converse.  Still funny though. [NESW] Reed Johnson’s blog [...]

Blackhawks dominated the Blues last night and won 3-1.  Thank God that the “evil Hawks” didn’t show up.  [Yahoo] Trib article says Del Negro has “made the most” of his assistants.  So you’re saying it’s all his fault? [Tribune] Don Cooper talks White Sox fans down off the ledge.  First, I didn’t realize they were [...]

Don’t ever say we don’t listen to our readers’ input.  Due to the bitching and whining of NQTC’s Sox fans, I went out and found someone to write about the South Siders.  So here is General Zod, who will be writing once a week about whatever Sox story suits his fancy.  StevieY and I will [...]
