Yes you are. What do you think a Chicago sports talk station is going to talk about? Former well liked Blackhawk gives ex-teammate a cheap shot, injuring one of our starting defensemen one game after another player who plays the same position is injured by another semi-cheap hit, or Blackhawks player gives another teams player a cheap shot and other player is left uninjured. I was listening to the Score all day and I never heard one person even put the hit in context. Not until I watched the video myself did I see what Seabrook did to initiate his hit. Was Wiz justified in doing so? No, but it definitely played a part and any good sports talk host would have at least mentioned it.

The ESPN ticker said Campbell could be out for the year with a broken collarbone
-
Dick Stockton and friends were so boring that TNT let Ernie, Kenny, Charles, and Kevin do the play by play. No surprise: they were a lot better.
-
Will he really make that much more from Nike by moving to NYC? It's not like you cant put him on a billboard there if he stats in Cleveland.
-
He's still 19 years old. It's a perfectly reasonable decision. And what is he outperforms Fontenot doing ST? It wouldn't hurt to hold the decision until later.

So, who's going to Atlanta for Opening Day?

Planning on going to game 2 or 3 in Atlanta. -
Lou said that Castro is going to start the year in AAA. Are they trying to do that to save his arbitration years? I think it is a little too early to make this decision. I would have liked to have given a little more game time in Arizona to Castro first.

Is Gail Fisher pregnant?

I like the way their offense is shaping up. They are definitely improving.

Non story, wilson. Actually that is a story because it is in the newspaper redflash. And Kane is an immature goof for wearing his stupid silver medal in a posh club. Fine, it's a non-story story. As dex mention, he's just a kid having fun. Loosen up, please. I think the story is hilarious. Go out and have fun, but do you have to wear your silver medal?
-
I expect Alex Brown to get double digits in sacks this year. This move makes everyone so much better. If Tommie is playing like the Tommie of old, the Bears won't have to blitz and the Cover-2 will work just like it is designed. I could see this team returning to a top-5 defense with the acquisition of a decent safety.

For those out of market, NHL Center Ice is free on Comcast March 2-8.

First: Fourth rd pick for Olsen? What's next, Lance Briggs for a conditional 7th rd pick? Second: How can you call a player who has statistically improved each year in the league (39-391-2 to 6-612-8) a failed first round pick? I know stats don't show it all, but they dont lie either They are flaws in his game, but he still is improving as a player. So no, I don't consider Olsen a "failed first round" pick, and thus shouldn't be considered as on. No one is giving the Bears a second rounder. Third rounder - maybe - but they are not getting anything better. The Bears are stuck with a guy they don't need who wants out. You don't get what you should get in that position. Lance Briggs is a perennial Pro Bowler, Olsen isn't even close. Olsen is a failed first rounder because he can't block, can't shed blocks well, is undersized, doesn't have strong hands, has the fewest yards after the catch of any regular TE in the league last year, and hasn't shown the speed to break away from safeties that we thought he would. He is improving, but not fast enough. In Martz's scheme, he is worthless because Martz wants his TEs to first be able to block so that the wide outs can go deep. Yes Greg is improving, but he never showed first round talent.

Taylor starting over Forte? We'll see. I hope Hester is going to be the third or fourth receiver with Aromashodu becoming the starting wide out. Hester is most valuable returning every punt and kick and giving this team field position.
-
So Patrick Kane is in NYC at a club wearing his Team USA Jersey and his silver medal. That's stupid enough. Then he sees the Black Eyes Peas and purposely falls down next to them to get seen by them. What an immature goof. http://www.nypost.com/p/pagesix/love_the_peas_iUpdcoe2p89ngvTvci7BWJ

Couldn't the Bears have traded their picks for Boldin? Then trade Olsen for a fourth rounder to replace at least one of them? Olsen is just another one one Angelo's failed first round draft picks. If Forte doesn't pan out, Angelo should trade that pick every single year. The problem is that you HAVE to hit on your first rounders. Trading them might not be a bad idea, but I doubt Jerry will really ever do this. When you hit on your first rounders, you look like the Colts. When you don't, you look like the Bears.
-
The Bears should be the most profitable NFL teams in that they have the second biggest market all too themselves, but I remember that they were at the bottom end of the top 10 in profits. The Bears have money even though they should have more, but just as with the Cubs, they don't spend it well (giving in to Urlacher, Tommie, and Hester.) Go ahead and get Peppers, but that money better not keep them from pursuing a great player in his prime.
-
If the Bears sign Peppers to a big contract, how will that affect the salary cap when one finally gets resolved? Isn't age 30 the year that DEs really begin to get old? How many DEs over 30 have put up double digit sacks?
-
I don't think Andrews really dresses too risque. Some things might be a little tighter than normal, but she is just so beautiful that most anything she wears makes her look hot.
-
ESPN has been involved in a number of sexually-related miscues the last few years (Reynolds, Philips, Kutselias, and Tony) and although it brings them publicity, they realize four is too many. I think ESPN is just trying to stop this and laying down the kaybash by being a little too tough on Tony. What Tony did was wrong, but 2 weeks is a little excessive.
-
He was initially emotional, more than I thought. I didn't think he would miss the Masters, but I think he might now.

On the radio I heard, Tiger, why wasn't 18 holes enough for you?
-
I think so as well but, could that be another max FA? Wade and Bosh for example? Wade isn't going anywhere. Neither is LeBron. The Bulls best bet is Bosh and Joe Johnson, and that has a slim chance of happening. I doubt any team is getting two max contract players. The problem for the Bulls is that there are too many teams that can give max contracts and not enough great players. Joe Johnson does not have the skills to be a max contract player, but all you need to really be one is a team that is willing to offer him that. NY is going to offer him that after they fail to get LeBron. Why are some people suddenly so sure that neither Wade or LeBron are going anywhere? I have a guy who knows people.
