Bill Laimbeer Is Still a Dick

ESPNChicago - Bill Laimbeer wasn't much of a fan of the last Chicago Bull to win MVP, and he doesn't appear too enamored with the franchise's current contender for the award, Derrick Rose.
The former Detroit Pistons center and current Minnesota Timberwolves assistant coach didn't care to make comparisons between Rose and five-time MVP Michael Jordan, but offered up one criticism of Rose.
"I wouldn't compare them because I don't really care about either of them," Laimbeer said Wednesday on "The Waddle & Silvy Show" on ESPN 1000. "One is a point guard and one is a shooting guard. They are two completely different positions. Derrick Rose has a lot to learn also as far as getting his teammates more involved. He takes the ball a lot himself these days. But he's a very aggressive player, he's fast, he's strong and he has the great skillset to be very successful. To compare the two would be a stretch at this point."

What's Going on With Bruce Weber and Oklahoma?

 

Chicago Sun-Times -  The Norman (Okla.) Transcript, citing a “well-placed” source, said Illinois coach Bruce Weber has emerged as a viable candidate to become the next coach at Oklahoma, saying there appears to be mutual interest.

Weber, who has been at Illinois the last eight seasons, appears to have some reasons to find Oklahoma attractive, the paper said.
Earlier this season, athletic director Ron Guenther issued a statement supporting Weber’s future at Illinois when it looked like it might miss the NCAA tournament for the third time in four years.
Illinois must replace four senior starters next season.
The source said another factor that could make OU attractive to Weber is that Guenther’s contract expires at the end of June. If it’s not renewed, the paper said Weber’s seat could get hot under a new athletic director.

Asik and Destroy: Bulls win 108-91

Like I said after the Bulls lost to the Sixers, you didn't want to be the Timberwolves on Wednesday night.  The Bulls did not start the game slow like they had the last few games and dominated the crappy T-Wolves 108-91.  It was nice to see the Bulls bounce back, but not really that impressive considering that I'm pretty sure the Bulls "Bench Mob" (the nickname given to the bench players by CJ Watson) could have beat the T-Wolves by 10 by themselves.

2011 MLB Predictions

 

Baseball season starts tomorrow, so it is time to get some predictions on the record.  

The Worst Drunk Dial Ever

Come on Ryan, you've got to give lady Dominic here a shot.  I mean, you both love yo-yo's, she has a good job at either EBAY or Jamba Juice and on top of that, she sounds totally sane.

I hope this starts a new trend of drunk dials being posted on the internet.  Forget texts from last night, drunk dials from last night is where it is at.  You know what, why stop there.  FaceTimes from last night is the future and we need to make that happen with the quickness.

Cleveland Beats the Heat and Lebron is a Punk...Again

 

The Cavs beat the Heat and Lebron James last night 102-90.  Does this make everything better for the fans in Cleveland?  No, but I guarantee they feel good right now.  The Cavs won their 15th game of the season, in a game that they controlled from beginning to end.  Lebron had a triple double, but that won't matter, because everyone will remember how he acted like a bitch...again.

2011 White Sox Season Preview: All In

According to the White Sox they are "all in" this year, but what does that really mean?  They increased their payroll by $20 million and signed Adam Dunn in the offseason.  Does it mean if they don't win they are going to blow the team up?  I'm not sure, and I don't know if anyone is sure, but one thing I do know, is that they have built a team that is ready to contend for a AL Central title.
