As you may have noticed, we haven’t had much activity going around on here, the darkest corner of the internet. It’s been a busy few weeks for me.
The Blackhawks are doing their thing on the ice as well as off the ice. It’s great to see an old friend in Andrew Ladd return. If only the Blackhawks would have brought back Dustin Byfuglien and the meatballs would have been in a frenzy. Oh well. Good win by them as well against the Capitals this past Sunday. That was a close one.
The Bulls continue to be a tire fire and will remain that way for the next decade. I think most of us NBA fans are aware that the Warriors are what the Bulls were in the 90’s. They may very well win five or six in a row. As of this writing, they are one win ahead of the pace of the 1995-96 Bulls for the best record in an NBA regular season. I never thought I would see a team get close to that mark.
Last, but not least, the Bears still have Ted Phillips employed. That fucking sucks. But hey, Alshon Jeffery is coming back with the franchise tag. Let’s pray the Bears don’t fuck it up by letting him go after next season.
Your thoughts as always, are welcome below.

Jesus fucking Christ, do the goddamned Bulls fucking suck dick. Fro, I think when the Bears pull their collective heads out of their asses (*cough*gasp*gag*puke), and release Robbie Dickface (He’s replaced Cutler. Sorry if anyone disagrees), you’ll be changing the header to “Fire Fred Hoiberg-and Disband the Bulls”.
I think you’re going to have to at least consider it. They’ve dropped to ninth place with last nights coyote ass ugly loss. Hoiberg is in over his head, and this band of miscreants don’t give a goddamn about defense, or anything else for that matter. Enough with them already. The Bulls aren’t to win jack shit with this team, period. Blow it up and start over. Starting with Paxson, Forman, and Hoiberg. Fuck em.

We’re heading back to the Fire John Paxson – Fire Gar Forman header soon. But I am not even kidding you, the last two games, I watched less than five minutes because I was so pissed off. I swear to God, I feel like these Bulls are the 2013/2014 Chicago Bears. Started off well and full of optimism, only to to turn to horse shit as time went on (mainly with the defense).
I can’t even go through every problem that is wrong. I am so fucking pissed. They can’t even give up less than 100 points a game anymore. They set a franchise worst with this last game letting the Heat shoot 67.6%. How is that even possible in the NBA? Fuck.

Also, off-topic, but I am heading to Raw on Monday in Rosemont. I don’t have a sign this time around because WWE has been confiscating any sign they please lately. If you remember, the “Larry Horse is my father” one was confiscated right after it was shown in the beginning of a show last summer. The idiot with the headset sitting by the announcers jumped over the barricade and came to me to say “You can’t have that sign.” When I asked him who told him that I can’t have it, he wouldn’t give me an answer.
I’d rather not risk it again and possibly get kicked out. I was able to snag a ringside seat for face value and I would be pissed if they tried kicking me out. You aren’t allowed to have fun with funny signs nor are you allowed to dress up like some of the superfans anymore. Not that I did that, but some fans were forced to change clothes or change seats on two different occasions in the last year. So, you can see where Vince and the other puppets are focusing their mind on.

Yeah, stupid bullshit that will in no way whatsoever affect business, or offend anyone in the arena, or watching on TV.
Also off topic, did you see that Erin McElroy had twin daughters? All nice and good, but WGNs coverage of it is waaaaaaaay too syrupy for me. Sorry, I’m not into mushy love stories, especially when one of the participants is a goddamned dork.

I saw parts of it this morning at work. It sucks how she issues after her second child. I don’t wish that on anyone. As you said, it’s more of who she’s married to rather than the actual situation.
For some reason, though, I still think he’s more tolerable than Konrad. That’s despite him stealing Jimmy D.’s lady. Thief.
March 2, 2016 at 5:05 pm
I’d rather jerk off with a cheese grater than listen to not so funnyman Konrad. And I want to punch Pat Tomasulo right in the fucking balls. Same goes for Robin Baumgarten.
I think Jimmy should dump her. He can do much better than that. She’s obviously NOT the brightest bulb on the string. Jimmy D., my frendt, you deserve better.

Thanks for the image. Ouch.

Hey, gents.
At the trade deadline, all the Bulls did was get rid of Hinrich. Pau Gasol was the only other Bull that anybody wanted to seriously discuss. That says a lot of bad about any future this roster has.
Remember D-Rose talking shit about his free-agency season? Didn’t look like anybody wanted an alleged point guard with injury issues and a pending civil court case for sexual assault.
Too bad the NBA draft is only two (WTF???) rounds, the Bulls need a roster refresh.
Fro, that really sucks about the signs. Fans showing off/showing out only adds to the WWE experience; no sense pissing off the paying customers.
Soccer: Other than the new US Men’s Team’s new crest, it looks like it’s gonna be a long year.
Go Black Hawks.

The Bulls have given up 100 points in 15 straight games. That tells you right there where they are and will be for the next decade. The Bulls have turned into the 2013 and 2014 Chicago Bears with their awful defense. It has made me lose interest this season.
March 5, 2016 at 5:45 pm
Oh. Hell. No.

dvx…..All I can say is if Josh Shitman hires that fuckin shitstain chinscare douche bucket, that will end his tenure there. That’s just outright fucking stupid.

ha ha ha…you guys beat me to the punch. Lovie Baker rides again?
March 5, 2016 at 10:28 pm
You know what guys? For the most part, I hate my sports life. Before I get into the topic above, the Bulls had an 18-point lead with about six minutes to go in the game only to see the Rockets get it down to 104-100 with a minute or so to go. Talk about having your ass chapped. Fuckers.
And yes, I am an Illini fan. The problem is, they have sucked so bad in both football and basketball, that I rarely talk about it on here. Just when I thought that Lovie Lee Smith was gone from this state, he finds his way back in it.
Chicago Tribune columnist and village idiot, David Haugh, thinks this is a great move. This guy has been the worst columnist in Chicago since Skip Bayless. And go figure, both have worked for the Tribune.

Folks, I thought about this earlier today and decided to share it with you. It’s all but confirmed that Lovie is taking the job at Illinois. Here are some things to think about:
1. In college, there are more players on the roster. I would think there are four or five quarterbacks. So, Lovie could say “Quarterback #1 is our quarterback”. Next week, he can gladly say the second one is. And so on and so forth.
2. Playing defense in college is way different than the NFL. More points are scored in college. Will Lovie actually try to install his “Cover Who” defense? Spoiler alert: It won’t work. Teams will run up the score on him.
Look, I could be entirely wrong about all of this and more. Some coaches are great in college but terrible in the NFL and vice versa. To date, I think there is only one coach that I can think that was successful on both levels (Jimmy Johnson). However, if Lovie thinks he can pull the garbage that he pulled in the NFL with his shitty schemes, his arrogance towards the media and finally, wanting control of decisions in personnel, then this is going to be another nightmare. Maybe I’m wrong, but history tells me differently.
