Chicago

Saturday night's game against the Utah Jazz marked the halfway point of the Chicago Bulls season, and if the 95-85 loss is any indication, both the team and its fans are in for some good sack time. Because ladies and gentlemen, your Chicago Bulls are pooped.

Despite losing the NFC Championship game to the Bears, Saints rookie Reggie Bush spent the entire trip back to New Orleans taunting Bears linebacker Brian Urlacher, just as he did during the third quarter of Sunday's game.

The Blackhawks lost two more games over the weekend in a sport that has nothing to do with the Chicago Bears. So, in all honesty, this great city is in no way concerned about a mismanaged, losing hockey team. Everyone in the city is far more concerned with the Bears' upcoming Super Bowl appearance. And that includes the players.

Chicago baseball fans will set aside their differences over the next two weeks and root for the Bears together, according to a recently inked treaty at City Hall Sunday night.

The entire city of Chicago could see it coming. We were being set up for one of the biggest collapses in the city's sports history. The Bears' once comfortable 16-0 first half lead had cut to just two as the New Orleans Saints' rookie sensation Reggie Bush was back flipping into the end zone.

Wednesday night, the Chicago Bulls beat the Milwaukee Bucks 99-90, a victory that can be attributed in part to the performance of Tyrus Thomas. During his energy-filled 18 minutes on the floor, the rookie scored eight hard-earned points, grabbed five timely rebounds, snatched four steals and threw down two monster blocks. He demonstrated why the Bulls were so darn excited to grab him in last summer's draft.

Mike Ditka said he doesn't care who wins the NFC Championship and it's upsetting a lot of Chicagoans. Ditka earned his legacy as the Bears head coach from 1982 to 1992 before coaching the Saints from 1997 to 1999 and holds the distinct title as the only head coach fired by both franchises.
