We live in Chicago, quite possibly the sporting capital of the world. It seems to be one of the best sporting environments with the best venues in the world. All seems to suggest that except that when you look at out sports teams, they all suck. Suck to the extent that a great city, should have great teams. with only the White Sox winning recently, and the Bears making it to the Super Bowl a while back, there has been nothing to cheer about. When broken down, we see that we are satisfied with being above average. How long will that be enough. To me, it is like an unseasoned dish. Yes it will satisfy hunger, but it will not taste good.
Cubs - Lovable losers. How long will people love losing? Dusty Baker fleeced you guys at about 5M/Y, and all hge did was blow out the arms of your young stud pitchers. He also made racist comments about white players. He left town with as many rings as he came with...none. The best thing Baker ever did was take Corey Patterson with him. You guys chased Pinella, he came, same result. The Cubs are the best team in baseball, and they could not find someone who had been to a title in the last 15 years? Go get Torre! Look what he did with freakin half a Manny, and Derek Lowe?
Blackhawks - Cold losers. The best thing that happened sadly, was that Dollar Bill Wirtz died. Hopefully the next guy gets the Cubs PR guy, and whores out the team. He did you say? Freakin great. I have not cared about hockey since I went to an all-white high school. At least make me think about possibly going to a game sometime in the future perhaps.
Bulls - winning losers. SO much talent, SO few results. That ass-whipping in portland was nasty, and all I could hear was "With the 6th pick in the draft, the Bulls select......(Some dude from North Carolina, only because he has a winning pedigree)." The thing that sucks for the Bulls is, even if they suck, they are not garaunteed anything because of the lottery. I am ready to welcome Demar Derozan, not because he is good, but because 5 years from now, he will be our homegrown Larry Hughes.
Bears - Speaking of sucking, these guys would even lose a sucking contest. The worst thing the bears did was win the last two meaningless games last year. That dropped them out of the top 7 draft picks. We would up with a dude who needed back surgery. The bears have never had a good team. When the defense was good, offense sucked, when the offense was good that one year, the defense sucked. When Rex Grossman was good, you were probably drunk off your ass. Isn't it wierd
that we have never had a good quarteback? our highest paid quaterback ever, was Brian Griese at about 6M/yr. even freaking jp loshman makes more than that. Also, is it not crazy that Orton is playing his ass off, and making the same as Grossman? Orton came from a school with a history of shotgun formations, or as is popular now, WILDCAT. Look at Brees? he is good. I also know that Jerry Angelo has a history of good defensive draft picks, but why stick with grossman so ong when he sucked for so long. This should be Orton's second year as a starter, and Grossmans first year as a Detroit Lion. How the hell did Miami beat us to Bill Parcells? Parcells would not have pulled the trigger on Cedric Benson, Mark Bradley, or next years' Wide Reciever pick. He would have pulled the trigger on next years trade of a first rounder for multiple draft picks to invest in a line to proctect Orton's ankle, and Forte's neck.
White Sox - quitter losers. Simple here, get more pitching. Trade vazquez away for used balls and bats, get Linebrink healthy, insert Broadway into Vazquez' spot, Thronton starts the season in the Bullpen, Give Konerko b12 shots, and let 'em rip. Also, call Orlando Cabrera's next team's scoreboard operators at ramdom intervals, and argue that cabrera should have more errors.
MLS - playoffs every year, so you get a pass for now, but get a damn coach!
Chicago wolves - pass for now, but get on TV!
Chicago SKY - Scrimmage at the cage by the Police station on State. If it ain't a foul there, it ain't a foul anywhere. also, get on tv.
Chicago State, UIC, Loyola, get some Point Guards. DePaul, Northwestern, Get some Defensive minded centers. NIU, Get a solid SF, EIU, WIU, Ill ST, get help.
as always I remain,
