SHITTING BULL

It was all a dream. Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen, Dennis Rodman, Horace Grant, John Paxson, the Grant Park celebrations - all of it a beautiful dream. The reality of our new sports landscape in Chicago is that the Chicago Bulls are ABSOLUTELY FINISHED. In my opinion this season has been doomed from the moment King Kobe decided that he didn't want to be here (if the Bulls traded half the team away) and when Joakim Noah became the fall guy for this group of underachieving ballers. If you think for one friggin minute that I am gonna keep watching this season spiral out of control...you are CORRECT! I love it and am curious to see if anything else can happen. Bulls GM John Paxson has lost all control of the good ship Reinsdorf and everybody likes watching train wrecks. That is called human nature and the saddest part of it all is that there is at least five months to go. Good googly moogly.


I WANT MY OWN TV

Oprah has truly outdone herself this time and I love her. In a deal struck with the Discovery channel, Oprah is taking over the Discovery Health channel and turning it into the Oprah Winfrey Network OWN-TV. What do we have to look forward to...who knows? I just hope it's more Oprah. Hours and hours of Oprah. I would like to see Oprah cooking and running and in Africa at the school she created and Oprah in her garden and Oprah Oprah OOOOOOPPPPPPPPPRRRRRRAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Congrats beautiful and I promise never to bring up Chicago Celebrations and how dynamic a pyramid scheme that was. I Love You Oprah - mwaaaaaaaah!

O watch.


OJ CAN YOU SEE

Quick Hits

The season known as Year End Clearance is in full swing and with it a series of quick hits so you can get back to your "holiday" shopping.

Funeral Pyre

Stacy Peterson has been missing for a month now...Theresa Bunn has been dead since November 12th...she was murdered then set on fire not too far away from where I am writing this to you. Her killer hasn't been found and to make matters worse this case also gets little to zero media attention. This may have something to do with where the murder was committed (I should say murders there was a body of a young woman, Hazel Lewis who was also incinerated). On the southside of Chicago near and around Hyde Park the last few weeks have been stressful on the residents to say the least. But outside of the city all you hear about is a media hog who probably killed his second wife and who may end up on Oprah sooner than later. Fuck you Drew.

Making Up For Lost Time

The writers strike is in full swing and MAN I hope it ends soon. The execs at NBC are going to show “vintage” episodes of the Tonight Show starring…Jay Leno? Damn when does Conan start again?

From the SportsDesk

Devin Hester can out run you.

The Chicago Bulls really stink and John Paxson should be jailed for not getting Kobe or KG…

GO BLACK HAWKS!!!

Arsenal is the best football team you’ve never heard of.

…And Finally

Before Thankstaking I saw a photo of President Bush with some Native Americans…it is the most disturbing photograph I have seen in recent memory. It is also a biting commentary on where we are as a nation. The only time the indigenous are recognized is when we celebrate their massacre. Hope you had an enjoyable Thankstaking.
