If this video doesn't make you smile, you are not a Bulls fan

I guess they played this "Evolve" video on the jumbo-tron at the United Center recently.  This is just good old fashioned fun. Seeing the college and high school clips of all guys, is just some good old cheesy stuff.  You've got Michael and Scottie and the current crop of stars DRose, Boozer, Deng, Noah, and Kyle Korver.  Wait Kyle Korver made this video? I guess they wanted to squeeze a white guy in there.  I bet Brian Scalabrine is pissed he didn't get to be the token white guy, he has made career of that. I would love some old clips of Scal shooting garbage time jumpers and waving towels from the bench.

SCAL-A-BRIN-EEEE!!!

Tommie Harris...He Gone!

CBS Chicago - On Monday, the Chicago Bears terminated the contracts of veterans Tommie Harris, Hunter Hillenmeyer and Kevin Shaffer.
Harris, a former Pro-Bowler, started 90 of 104 career games over his seven years as a Bear. He had 286 tackles, 28.5 sacks, six forced fumbles and was given the team’s 2007 Ed Block Courage Award and 2004 Brian Piccolo Award.
Hillenmeyer had 458 tackles, seven sacks and two interceptions in his 101 career games, 69 of which were as a starter.
Shaffer started seven games at right tackle over his two seasons with the Bears. He’s played in 132 career NFL games with Atlanta (2002-05), Cleveland (2006-08) and Chicago.

The Chicago Bears have finally cut Tommie Harris. It has been three years since Tommie has had a good season for the Bears, and he was the second highest paid player on the defense, making $10 million a season.

Tommie was one of the best defensive tackles in the league 5 years ago and a key to their 2006 NFC championship team but it seems like injuries, laziness and general crappy play has finally caught up with him.  How you go from being that good, to being benched for full games because the coach doesn't think you are good enough is beyond me. I won't miss Tommie Harris a bit anymore.  I missed him two years ago, when he decided to stop being good, but I'm over him now, as it appears the Bears are too.

And you thought being a male cheerleader couldn't get more embarrassing


Bro, I know you think you are part of the team, but stay off the court when the game is going on.  I didn't even know it was possible for a cheerleader to get a technical foul.  I'm assuming that he thinks he won the game here, even though he's not part of the team, but you've got to be smarter than this.  I mean you are already the lowest form of male "athlete" on the planet, no reason to blow a game for the actual athletes that people came to watch play. Dude is just lucky that Pitt ended up missing the three after the technical free throws. If Louisville blows that game he has to transfer schools, right?

And what makes a guy become a male cheerleader? Is it because you think it's your only chance to be part of a team or something? Just join a intramural flag-football or broomball team or something. Somebody get George W. Bush on the phone and ask him.
