  1. Read more: http://football.realgm.com/src_twelfthwriter/61/20100420/25_fearless_draft_predictions/#ixzz0ln6nKAR7 Give away the farm for Eric Berry. But has Jerry done that the last couple of years, or just for Cutler?
  2. Whatever happens in the offseason, the Bulls desperately need a three point shooter.
  3. Why did you include the NFL draft. Are the Bears trading up? Well I hope so, but it is still interesting to watch nonetheless.
  4. Could there be a better day than tomorrow? Bulls and Hawks playoff game. Cubs and Sox play. NFL draft rd 1. Wish I had a few more TVs.
  5. Do we know if NJ can legally offer LeBron part ownership of the team to draw him in? How good could NJ be with LeBron, Wall or Turner, and a bunch of scrubs?
  6. I have heard a bunch of people say they only thing that NBA players want is a fat contract, but I have heard two people (Wade and Bosh) say that they didn't like the effort their team plays with and indirectly they want to win. This is good for the Bulls if it draws people away from NY/NJ and to Chicago. Boers and Bernstein said that these playoffs don't mean anything because the Bulls have no chance of winning a championship. I agree, but if the Bulls continue to fight and show some FAs that they are close to really putting something together, it just might draw one in that was unexpected.
  7. Kirk as a PG? Yuck. He will dribble the ball around until 5 seconds are left on the shot clock every possession. Can Shannon Brown play PG?
  8. But the 17 pick is going to Milwaukee right? Or does Milwaukee just have the option of taking it? Man that Deng and Hinrich money really looks bad.
  9. Not without a sign in trade in which Deng or Hinrich and some combination went out in exchange. I don't want Wade though to be perfectly honest. Him and Rose's skills will not compliment each other at all and each will be less effective. If the Bulls want the best bang for their buck this offseason (outside of Lebron of course) they should target Bosh as their main FA. Him and Ros playing pick and roll would be awesome. Just add some additional shooters and defenders. After signing Wade or Bosh by the way, we'd have roughly $4.3M to spend on another FA piece. I don't give two craps about bang for the buck. I want the best team and the Bulls have plenty of money to spend. Well, sorry, bang for buck was a stupid term to use in this context because Wade and Bosh will both get the same MAX contract. Bosh will make us a better team than Wade, despite the fact that Wade is probably a bit better. Just not as good of a fit. The reason I originally said bang for buck was because I was thinking about other PF options such as Boozer, Lee, and Amare. Bosh will provide to be more valuable than them as well, and potentially cheaper as well. If it is between Bosh and Wade I want Bosh too. The Bulls desperately need a low post presence. But the team can't win a championship adding just Bosh unless LeBron goes to a terrible team like NY or NJ. So I am looking for a way to get two guys: a 4 and a 2.

  11. Wade has expressed some discontent with his team this series. Maybe that increases his chances of coming to the Bulls. I am looking for some way for the Bulls to get a top line guy like Wade and a second tier free agent. Would a Wade/Boozer pickup be financially possible? If they managed that, they should be considered NBA title contenders.
  12. Boers and Bernstein were wondering if Samardzija was more important to Chicago sports as a pitcher or receiver on the Bears. Maybe he could do the Deion thing.
  13. Dusty sent a text to Lou saying just wait til the temperature warms up. Wait, wasn't it one of the warmest springs in recent memory?
  14. He's the only pitcher I have ever seen whose changeup is faster than his fastball
  15. Do you have the Jets wrapping up the division by week 16? I just don't see how our receivers are going to catch one ball that game.
  16. Yeah, I don't want that crap to be the only thing I'm forced to care about. The Cubs season has been over before the Hawks season has.
  17. FAIL. Putting this on Neimi is wrong. I'm putting this on Bowman. Because you are blaming him for not getting someone to play in net! Which means you are blaming Niemi! Otherwise, what the sam [expletive] are you talking about???? he obviously isn't watching the game I am watching the game. Niemi is average and a great goalie picks up the defense when they fail. I am not going to blame Niemi for being what he is - an average goalie at best.
  18. FAIL. Putting this on Neimi is wrong. I'm putting this on Bowman.
  19. Niemi is average at best. A goalie is the most important position in the NHL, akin to a QB in football. And you can't win a championship with an average goalie unless you have a world class defense. Bowman was on the Score last week and said he was totally comfortable with Niemi and never was tempted to trade for a goalie. Now he might have wasted a great season.
  20. Does Soriano have a diminished skills clause in his contract?
  21. I got the Bears at 7-9, missing the playoffs, and Lovie getting fired. Bet case scenario, 8-8. But if Favre retires, things could change.
  22. They'll probably get beat by Orlando again. Orlando Yes. No. No one even in Atlanta believes this. This is coming form someone who lives in Atlanta. They know their limits.
  23. The STARS get calls. They should. Jordan got them for years. Rose will in time.
  24. Nashville isn't winning another game in this series as long as the Cubs are their bad luck keep away from the UC.
