Discuss whatever is on your mind. This Saturday, I will be at the WWE Raw House Show in Rockford. And for those wondering, I will have the belt on me (the real one). If I get any good pictures, I will put them up sometime next week.

Have a good weekend ladies and gentleman.

Why are the leaders of the Bears idiots?

July 29, 2011

Well, the lockout has finally ended. So that means it’s time for Jerry Angelo to once again, publicly display his stupidity. It’s also time for me to discuss the upcoming season for our beloved Chicago Bears. Even though the Bears won the division and nearly won the NFC Championship game, I didn’t feel good about the team at all and with good reason. Their deficiencies came back to haunt them when it mattered the most. This upcoming season, I see more problems arising.

First off, I am aware of the team getting rid of Brad Maynard, Greg Olsen and Brandon Manumaleuseless. The only one I find a bit frustrating was Olsen. I thought he could have been a lot better if used wisely. After moRon Turner was mercifully let go, I had a little glimpse of confidence that Mike Martz would be better. I was wrong on that too. Mike Martz has been nothing short of awful. That also goes on Lovie Smith and Jerry Angelo but more on those clowns later. Mike Martz is just a piece of what is going to ruin this team’s chances. I can’t even explain all of the garbage he has done wrong and what Smith and Mike Tice had to do to get him to run the ball more. But the way I see it, he will return to his old-self and it’s going to be trouble for Jay Cutler. Mike Martz’s idiocy can be summed up in two words: Todd Collins. If that asshole thought Todd Collins was better than Caleb Hanie last year, then I have zero faith in this upcoming Bears’ team.

Then there is the inept Jerry Angelo and the delusional Lovie Smith. Angelo on one hand is the guy responsible for signing off on all decisions made by Smith and Martz to make this team better. He also has proven to be shitty by making draft picks and also screwing over other teams during the draft. On the other hand, Lovie will continue to spew out his “thoughts” on the Bears during every press conference. Once again, zero faith in these guys.

If the Bears want to get better, they should make the right choice and try to get some better players in free agency. It seems like Olin Kruetz is out the door so a center and another guard is important for the line. If those two problems don’t get solved, Cutler will be in a wheelchair by week three. It would be nice if they could get a wide receiver who can actually jump up and grab a ball along with knowing how to run a route properly. On the defensive side, well, you know what’s coming here. Can we please get a cornerback who knows how to cover a receiver? Is that too much to ask for? Nnamdi Asomougha is out there and I don’t give a damn how much he is going to get overpaid. I do not want to see the dynamic duo of Tim Jennings and Charles Tillman (Fuck you) out there ever again. That’s why the Bears lost in the NFC Championship game last year. That is as shitty as it can get. This “Cover Two (Who?)” defense is about as worthless as a used diaper.

Sure, there’s still time for the Bears to get better but I am not banking on it. The way I see it though, the Bears aren’t going to be good as their 11-5 record last year.

If anybody else has any thoughts, feel free to add them. If Irish Yeti is reading this, put your stats on another site.

IT’S STILL REAL TO ME DAMNIT!

Sunday night felt like 1998 all over again. WWE finally did something great for the first time in many years. I only wished I was at the Allstate Arena rather than streaming it online.

What a show.

Question for the Blackhawks fans: Can someone tell me why they re-signed Viktor Stalberg? To say he is useless is an understatement.

Whatever else is on your mind, feel free to discuss it.

The lockouts are everywhere.

Really? I wonder what I am going to do without football, basketball and ballet. What’s next?

Fire away folks.

Various topics to discuss.

This past weekend, the Blackhawks trading Brian Campbell and Troy Brouwer but I don’t really know what to say about that other than the team having a lot more money to spend. I will miss both players but it’s business and I am confident that Stan Bowman can find a way to get a good free agent or two in place of those guys.

The Bulls made a couple picks in last week’s draft. They drafted some guy from Real Madrid. They said he will be ready in a few years? Why? Isn’t a draft suppose to be for players who should be ready to help their team now? I don’t get it. They also picked up Jimmy Butler from Marquette. Supposedly, he is suppose to be Deng’s backup at small forward. His stats (Cue Irish Yeti) in college were pretty good (15 points, 6 rebounds per game) but as we know, that doesn’t mean shit in the NBA. I didn’t understand why the Bulls didn’t try to trade for a shooting guard in this draft. If Keith Bogus is still around, you can bet I am going to be angry all next season.

From what we are hearing, the NFL lockout might end soon. The owners and players will be meeting once again this week to try to get a deal done. There is a month left before training camp starts so time is ticking. If nothing is done by the middle of July, I may start to figure out what I may have to watch or do on my Sundays. It may not be all that bad. I could be watching the Bears’ secondary let quarterbacks like Aaron Rodgers or Michael Vick have their way with them. Maybe the secondary is working on that “prevent” defense during this time. Or is it the “Cover Who?” defense? I always imagine Lovie Smith in his accent saying the following at his press conference about this so-called “defense”: In the prevent, that means that we are preventing our defense from stopping the opposing offense.

Thoughts?

Fuck the Canucks: A great post by our good friend Nemo and a final word from yours truly.

June 15, 2011

Hahahahahahahahaha! Vancouver Canucks!! Played all year to host game 7. How’d that work out? You think it was going to win itself? Just guarantee it and not actually show up to play?!

I HATE that fucking stadium in Vancouver!!! Twice in a little over a year there have been heartbreaking overtime losses there-USA vs Can in the gold medal game and the Hawks just several weeks ago. I HATE those stupid white fucking towels they insist on waving. They probably make good handkerchiefs to cry into. (Fucking golden!)

I HATE how they try to make Canucks games an American vs Canadian thing-considering ALL NHL teams have Canadians, Americans, Swedes, Czechs, Finns, etc. Have you guys ever seen the national anthems before a game in Vancouver? They bring out some 4th grade music teacher reject to sing the Star Spangled Banner off key and WAY too fast. Then they bring in the professional opera singer to belt out Oh, Ca-na-wahh? So, friggin’ disrespectful! Sing both anthems right, you losers!!.

Anyhow, they may have barely beat a subpar Hawks team this year, but Vancouver’s angst will continue. Enjoy the Presidents’ trophy. Take that back to your hometown this summer and see who turns out!

                                                                                                         

Congratulations to the Boston Bruins for their dismantling of the Vancouver Canucks. That city has had seven championships from their sports in the last decade and it was their first hockey championship since 1972. Like Nemo, I cannot stand this fucking team. A majority of those guys are pieces of shit. They have Alex Burrows is enjoys pulling hair and biting fingers like a damn pussy. Include that with a douche like Ryan Kesler and a one of the dirtiest players in the game in Raffi Torres. Speaking of Torres, Barry Rozner of the Daily Herald said on the radio Wednesday morning that the Blackhawks should get him. Keep in the mind, this is the same guy that said they should trade Patrick Kane. What a dumbass.

In addition, their fans are pieces of shit too: As in 1994 when the Canucks pissed away the Cup against the Rangers, their fans were rioting in the city like sore losers. Here’s the link.

Last but not least, bye-bye Bobby Lu.
