2010 NFL Predictions
For as long as I can remember, each year around this time, I have made my NFL predictions. It started in high school, continued through college, and continues to this very moment. It's a right of passage for me. My most vivid memory of doing predictions was my senior year in high school. I was sleep walking through a history class(I think) when I [...]
2010 NFL Fantasy Projections
At first, I wasn't going to give out any fantasy football projections this year because I am hideously mediocre(at best) at fantasy sports. I went, basically, wire to wire in fantasy baseball in '08 only to have the hurricane wipe out 3 of my starts in my semi final playoff week, and that was that. My fantasy history is the equivalent to Gay [...]
Weepy Lou & The Whiny Bitch
Cubs fans never cease to amaze me. Whether it's still packing Wrigley everyday, still throwing visiting teams home run balls back onto the field, cheering Mark DeRosa upon his return as if he was Ryne Sandberg, or how the drunk fools in the bleachers still think it's cool to act like a fool---those are just a few, I could go all day on [...]
Same Old Sorry Ass Bears
When I wrote before training camp started, that I want the Bears to shit the bed this season, it was for one reason. I don't want the Bears to be bad and make me suffer through another 16 game disaster like '09. The thinking was, having this team bumble their way to a 6-10 season would guarantee the departures of team President Ted Phillips, [...]
The Biggest Divas-Bitches In Sports
As I was working out yesterday, I kept thinking about what to write a blog about next. I had a few ideas going through my head until the cynical side of me took over. If you know me, you know I usually lean toward the negative aspect of things. I'm a realist, what can I say. If you're looking for Johnny Meatball sports fan, you've come to the [...]
NFL Breakout Players For 2010
I've officially reached my limit on bad Cubs baseball for the season and have, now, fully immersed myself into football season. You know the baseball season has sucked ass for you when you are counting down to the Hall of Fame game in Canton, Ohio(August 8th on NBC in case you were wondering). Baseball season has been even worse than I imagined [...]
What Bears Fan Should Want In 2010
Late July-early August is the time that hope springs eternal for NFL fans, unless you root for the Raiders, of course. As the Bears gear up to open training camp, Mr. Chi City is here to tell you, the Bears fan, what you should want out of your team in 2010. Having failed in my attempt to have the Bear's 3 stooges(Lovie Smith, Jerry Angelo, [...]
It’s Almost Over
After following the NBA's free agent madness the past couple of weeks, it's time to focus on my abysmal baseball team. I've had no motivation to watch the Cubs so far this season until now. Why? Because ,there is nothing else to watch sports-wise until NFL training camps open at the end of this month. So, for the next two weeks, it's time for [...]
D Day For The King
After two plus years of trades, salary cap managing, season tanking, and bowing to The King himself, LeBron James is finally ready to make a decision. Or, is he? The silliness of NBA free agency is mercifully nearing it's end, and I couldn't be happier. The past week of rumors and "people with knowledge of the situation" has been enough to [...]
Time To Man Up
For the past 4 days, the rampant speculation of free agency 2010 has reached an obnoxious level--articles, blogs, tweets, and a certain twice fired-loud mouth claiming to have the story that has yet to play out. The futures of LeBron James, Chris Bosh, and Dwyane Wade have been dissected more than a crime investigation. Everyone with a voice [...]
