“Who are those guys?”
-Butch Cassiday

After royally screwing up two potential high-profile head coaching hires (Mike D’Antoni and Doug Collins both walked away), there’s buzz that the Bulls are about to announce a new coach from the short list of Dwayne Casey, Chuck Person and Vinny Del Negro. ”Who are those guy,” […]

The Chicago Tribune is now reporting Doug Collins has backed out as a candidate for coaching the Bulls.  In the immortal words of Gomer Pyle, “surprise, surprise, surprise.”  In fact, Gomer might be the mascot for this coaching search, as skilled as this search’s execution as been.
I had refrained on commenting on Collins as a […]

Shortly after Tony Rezko was convicted on 16 of 24 charges, Illinois governor Rod Blagojevich hired a new media consultant to help address the situation:

Final Crisis, issue one… what a strange book. You’ve got your New Gods, Kamandi, Anthro, some apparent time travel, a couple good guys getting killed, red skies, dissention in the ranks of the Monitors, The Dark Side Club (yes, last week’s Flash is a tie-in of sorts), obscure villains like Libra and the Human Flame (yes, […]

You might know Comic Mix as a blog about comic books, science fiction and related pop culture.  What’s less known about Comic Mix, hidden back on the webpage’s third tab, is that it’s essentially First Comics 2.0.  Mike Gold, who was an editor of First, and after the collapse of First, took creators like Mike […]

And who have the Bulls been interviewing for a head coaching candidate? Lots of discount applicants, that is to say, people who are currently assistant coaches or not even an assistant. People like Chuck Person (assistant coach, Sacremento), Tyrone Corbin (local ties as a DePaul Alum, assistant with the Jazz), Jeff Hornacek (originally from the ‘burbs, special […]

Going out this weekend, I noticed a group of young ladies switching between two types of vodka drinks: the ever-trendy vodka and Red Bull; and the more traditional […]

You may have heard rumblings that DC is in the market for a new Executive Editor. Dan DiDio’s contract is up this year, and its common knowledge on the street that DC has been looking for a replacement. The last rumor I heard was that DC wasn’t happy with the candidates they identified to replace DiDio and […]

Why were the critics harshing on a perfectly enjoyable movie?  Possibly because people have some very different definitions of what an Indiana Jones movie is.  Let’s take a little walk, debunk some of the garbage being spewed and then address the annoying elephant in Walgreen’s, I mean, in the film.
First off, Indiana Jones movies, while […]

You’ve heard it’s better to be lucky than to be good?  Well, the Bulls got lucky and turned a 1.7% chance into the first pick in the 2008 lottery.
What does thing mean?  Most likely another Baby Bull.  The darn-near universally acknowledged candidates for 1st pick are freshman Mike Beasley and freshman Derrick Rose.  When looking […]
