February 10, 2016: Uncle Rico
Here I go again… I am the real live Uncle Rico when it comes to Chicago sports. I’m always reminiscing of the glory days. We just got done with the first “glory year” in my Chicago sports life, which was … Continued
February 9, 2016: Bull Dive
This is getting hard to watch. Nuggets, Wolves, Hornets. 3 straight losses. 2-5 road trip. 6th seed in the East?!? Wait it gets better. Noah has been done. Niko is out for a while. Buckets will now miss 3-4 weeks. … Continued
February 3, 2016: Improba-bull
I certainly didn’t think it was going to happen. With Buckets sidelined, I was already chalking this one up. They sure gave the Kings every opportunity, but they refused to accept. The Bulls held on to win a surprising game … Continued
February 1, 2016: Overreaction
Every…. single…. Bulls… loss… is…. the…. end…. of…. the…. world. The world ended again last night. In this latest edition of overreaction, I talk us all off the ledge, and try to convince us that it’s not as bad as … Continued

January 25, 2016: Typi-Bull
Who saw this coming? How about everybody? The Bulls coming off a big win falter at home to a team they should have beat. It’s pretty typi-Bull. It’s pretty frustrating being a Bulls fan these days. Every regular season is … Continued
January 23, 2016: A Shot in the Arm
If anybody needed one, it was the Bulls. They got one with a win over the Cavs…that’s short for Cavaliers, not baby cows. I had to clarify that for my son. Speaking of those Cavaliers, how about them firing their … Continued
January 22, 2016: My Philosophy
Now that the Bears season is over, the Bears gear goes into storage. I’m talking specifically about the winter gear…ski caps, scarf, gloves…I won’t wear my jerseys any more either. I’ll still wear tshirts and sweatpants, but my Blackhawks and … Continued
