NHL- Blackhawks Win First Game of 2-3 Week Strecth Without Marian Hossa

NHL- Blackhawks Win First Game of 2-3 Week Strecth Without Marian Hossa
As good as he looks in that suit, I know we’d all much rather see Hossa sporting the Hawk jersey on the ice for the next 2-3 weeks. Thanks a bunch Boynton!

NFL- Bears are getting Dolphins and short prep week at right time
The Bears have just three days off in between Sunday’s home win against the Vikings and Thursday night’s meeting with the 5-4 Miami Dolphins. All things considered, this short week, and game against a team with a winning record, could not come at a better time for the Chicago Bears. The team should be riding... Read more »

Bears best effort of the year leads them over the Minnesota Vikings 27-13

Bears best effort of the year leads them over the Minnesota Vikings 27-13
I am happy to say that my 7-9 Bears prediction for this season is looking like a pretty bad bet at this point. Following what was hands-down the team’s best game yesterday, a decisive 27-13 win over Brett Favre and the rival Vikings, the Bears sit at 6-3, and for the first time this season... Read more »

NHL- A(nother) victory for GM Stan Bowman- Turco vs. Niemi Round 2

GM Stan Bowman with his new goaltender Marty Turco Let me be straightforward: I did not want Antti Niemi to leave town, but I was not as concerned as many fans seemed to be about Marty Turco taking over.
