Alright, folks. After taking a year off, the tournament for the most beautiful woman in Chicago television is back. The selection committee has given me 16 babes and now, it’s up to all of you to decide who’s your favorite.

Starting tomorrow and Thursday, the first two games will be played. Then, they will pick back up on Monday. The Final Four will be in two weeks along with the championship game. Remember, you can only vote once, so make it a good one. Games will last about a day and a half before voting ends.

Women will be compiled into four regions: DVX, Sunrise Zone, CS and GARY.

And the prize you ask? Well, take a look for yourself.

Bulls lose to the Clippers 96-86.

Nikola Mirotic had 16 of the Bulls’ 17 points in the final quarter.

Bulls shoot 31% from the field (27-87); miss eight free throws

Kirk Hinrich (0-7)

PATHETIC

This isn’t how I wanted to spend my Tuesday night. It’s enough that I was watching the Blackhawks only to see Patrick Kane get hurt. It looks like a shoulder injury for him. Then, about an hour or two later, I find out that Derrick Rose is out for the season. Great.

A reader who goes by “Nikola Drops” chimed in with a comment in the previous post on here. He already predicted that I was going to write about how this is on ThomASS. While this injury isn’t on him, directly. However, I will say that could have been caused from his previous injuries. It all started with the ACL tear three years ago, in my opinion.

I hate making comparisons or analogies, but I will here. With Rose, first, it was the ACL. Then, it’s a meniscus tear. Then another one. I compare this to an old car. In college, I drove an ’83 Cavalier. The first problem was a coolant fan relay and that lead to my car overheating. About three weeks later, the car began shaking. I needed to replace the alternator. Later, the serpentine belt. You get the point. At the end, the transmission fucked up. I ended up junking it for $50.

Derrick Rose is my 1983 Chevy Cavalier.

Dan Hampton: Give us Jay Cutler back in our day and Bears win 5 Super Bowls

Your thoughts?

Good to see the meatballs out in full force on a Sunday morning.

Bulls lose to the Rockets 101-90. It was their third loss in a row. They are 4-6 in their last ten games. In this game, they missed six free throws, shot 34% from the field and only played four bench players. Jimmy Butler logged 41 minutes in a game where the Bulls trailed for most of it. Again, this has been the trend all season and even all of these years since ThomASS took over.

The Bulls are now in fifth place in the conference and 11 games out of first. The players are tired, injured and mentally out of it. That’s a sign of a team tuning out their PATHETIC head coach.

It’s time to take out the trash. It stinks.

Heh. The big question remains, though, how did he get from his park in Springfield all the way up to Boston?

Our friends, Dan and Carl from Fire Ron Turner, will be in Vegas watching the Super Bowl and getting drunk. I want the Patriots to win. Fuck the Seahawks and their smug coach. Sure, Bill Belichick comes off as a scum bag but it seems like his players aren’t assholes like Dick Sherman and Marshawn Lynch.

The floor is yours.
