Dude, I’m tellin’ ya………. A couple of things have happened in the sports world with a local flavor. On Friday, the Chicago Bears signed free agent Pro Bowl defensive end Julius Peppers to a huge contract. They also signed running back Chester Taylor away from the Minnesota Vikings where he’s been a pretty decent back […]

Dude, I’m tellin’ ya………. So far the year is only four days old. But in several regards, it’s already off to a flying start. At least in Chicago and the surrounding area. First off, I want to remind you about the West 34 gig coming up at Rolling Lanes in Countryside, IL on Friday, January 15. […]

Dude, I’m tellin ya……….. I was tempted to forego selecting an Asshole of the Month for December and instead giving a huge honor to the overall 2009 Asshole of the Year. Really, that was just an idea to take the easy way out. I was finding the pickings somewhat slim this month. Some would say that Tiger […]

Dude, I’m tellin’ ya……. Well, the end of the year is coming near and not a moment too soon. I think I speak for the majority of us who feel that 2009 sucked. Big time. So with that in mind, I am pretty jacked for the coming year. It absolutely can’t get any worse. I […]

Dude, I’m tellin’ ya…………. Don’t let the title of this one deceive you. It’s not a deep-rooted psychological examination of the correlation of video games and aggression. Hell, it hurt my head just to type those words. I’m not bright enough to pull off something like that. It’s just that I witnessed something yesterday that […]

Dude, I’m tellin’ ya………. As I recollected some of the amusing and cool gifts I have gotten thru the years for Christmas last week, I actually had to cut it short. The post was getting a little long and I still had some thoughtful and memorable gifts to remember. But that’s the nice thing about […]

Dude, I’m tellin’ ya…….. There were a couple of solid contenders for this month’s award. I can’t tell you how bad I would like to honor Chicago Bears head coach Lovie Smith here today. But that’s more of a personal thing. Really, it’s a “Chicago” thing. And despite what he’s doing to my favorite football […]

Dude, I’m tellin’ ya……… I caught up with a show recently on the dummy box profiling geniuses among us. Quite the dichotomy, I know. It was pretty impressive on what some kids can do. Adults too. But I’ve always marveled at profiles of child prodigies. I mean, three-quarters of the adults you come across every day […]

Dude, I’m tellin’ ya………. For the second time in 14 calender days yesterday afternoon, the Chicago Bears looked like they could use a hero. In what seemed like a rerun of the game against Cincinnati two weeks earlier, they got pummeled by a rather mediocre team. Yeah, the Arizona Cardinals made the Super Bowl last year, […]

Dude, I’m tellin’ ya………. The Bears tried to save a little face yesterday against the hapless Cleveland Browns and accomplished that goal—-a little bit. I didn’t think there could be a worse team in football than the Detroit Lions after we played them. But Cleveland sucks pretty bad too. And despite the Bears easy victory, […]
