QUOTE (nitetrain8601 @ Jan 16, 2009 -> 03:38 PM) Rose, looks good, but he's not really a leader. He's humble to a fault. Doesn't have any killer instinct. Never has dating back to high school. QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jan 16, 2009 -> 03:46 PM) If you fired a GM after every bad move/moves they made we'd have a different GM every week. Everybody loved Paxson in 2007. Now a year and a half later he's garbage and should be fired. Give me a f***in' break. You make it sound as if it's one bad move that has put the Bulls in the position they are in now. It has been a series of draft picks, signings and extensions, trades, and, probably most importantly, non-moves/non-trades all orquestrated by pax that has given us the atrocious product (outside of Rose, in which I feel his hand was forced and their was no real choice as he is a hometown product) that you see on the floor night in and night out. He's the architect, and the team as currently constructed is absolute trash. Based on his prior work, it is abundantly clear that he lacks the vision, foresight, knowledge, and most obviously, ability and fortitude to make the right moves to right the ship. Therefore, he has to go and someone who can actually do the job is needed. And by the way, who cares if we as fans kinda liked a signing, draft pick, or trade the day it was made?? Most of us who luv the Bulls are gonna try to put a positive spin on it in our minds and hope for the best anyways. There is not one move he has made I have absolutely luved, outside of maybe the Rose pick, and even then I was worried about how long it would take for him to adjust and if his jumper could improve enough for him to reach star status. But I still feel the Bulls could not afford to not take the hometown kid anyways so the pick was automatic. Rose has very much exceeded my expectations (beasley has very much done the opposite), and I hope he continues to do so. We're not getting paid to do it. He is, and, therefore, he needs to get results. He hasn't. He's proven to suck at his job. He needs to go.

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Jan 15, 2009 -> 10:56 PM) Give it a few more years. A huge reason why the Bulls have gotten a "pass" from the fans is because there wasn't really ever a Winter alternative in the city. The Hawks were already awful, and the Bulls still had the name. With the Hawks marching back into the spotlight, and the Bulls being almost impossible to watch, the tide is starting to turn. Rose can't save the franchise by himself. BTW, I'm not saying the Bulls should be expecting 8,000 fans per night next year. That's just not going to happen. However, with times tough, and this team becoming more and more of an afterthought, season ticket sales are going to take a big hit next year. I see what you're saying, but I guess afterthought was too strong of a word for me. They're the Bulls. It's been a decade since MJ left, they have done ABSOLUTELY NOTHING since then, and they're 2nd in total attendance this year according to espn. http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/attendance I just think Chicago is gonna continue loving their Bulls no matter what. Not at Bears or cubby levels, but solidly there in 3rd. Chicago loves basketball... You want afterthought? Check out my avatar.

QUOTE (whitesoxbrian @ Jan 15, 2009 -> 09:48 PM) Finally, someone agrees with me. My friends were talking the other night at the Hawks game and all 3 of them said I was an idiot for thinking the Bulls aren't as popular as the Hawks. Hell with that- the Bulls games are silent when you watch them and it's a Deerfield crowd 95% of the time. Boooooring. Yeah but it's still always packed... Really though, let's be serious. It's nowhere near as bad as how it was for the hawks.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Jan 15, 2009 -> 07:07 PM) Deng doesn't even seem like half the player he used to be. He's only had ONE pretty good year... I have NOT liked the money he got since the very moment I heard it. Yeah, I felt we needed him more than gordon, but not for that much. Ridiculous he got that much coming off the year he did. There is not one move pax has made (and many he has not made) that I have liked. And Pooh doesn't count. Thank goodness he's from Chicago...

forgetting sarah marshall was not funny at all. I still get a little teary-eyed while watching WALL-E.

Aw, I'd feel bad saying anything mean about her. Unless she's a b****...

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jan 14, 2009 -> 02:11 PM) Check out the big brain on Brett. He must work out. Wrong movie??

You cannot convince me that a worse coach than jerry wainwright exists...

Why don't more people want pax fired?

I saw Gran Torino. Luved it. Not as good a movie as Million Dollar Baby but just as enjoyable. I enjoyed it wayy more than Benjamin Button, that's for sure. Also saw Falling Down on channel 50 late last night again. Another BADASS movie.

I know a bunch of the ushers have been De La Salle kids...

Well then I guess English women aren't curvy enough for me...

Went to watch the CPS Holiday Classic at DePaul yesterday. I watched Foreman dismantle Curie. The Foreman guards were impressive and Blackshear was a nonfactor. Farragut vs. Simeon was a close-fought game. Two games was enough for me, and tonight's final will be on channel 23.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jan 3, 2009 -> 11:22 PM) Tropic Thunder That movie was not funny at all...

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jan 3, 2009 -> 06:13 PM) Wall-E for best actor I was gonna say that...

I liked Speed Racer, and my 5-year-old brother luvs it, and enjoyed Hancock.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Dec 30, 2008 -> 10:18 PM) The Curious Case of Benjamin Button is easily one of the best movies I have ever seen. I liked it, but nowhere near that much.

Where do you shop online?

QUOTE (LosMediasBlancas @ Dec 26, 2008 -> 12:35 PM) In our family, the kids clean up, once you get older, you don't get jack. Amen. My 5-year-old brother got plenty of toys. I've joined the ranks of my parents in which we receive almost nothing. One uncle did give me a $50 dollar gift card, and another a shirt I'm going to return. I did buy myself the Air Jordan 11/12 Pack though And a wallet...

QUOTE (fathom @ Dec 23, 2008 -> 08:50 PM) I repeat...no coach gets less from the talent they have on their roster than Mark Few. wainwright is atrocious. Dar had 32 points and Mac gets another double-double with 22 boards yet they still lost to creighton tonight...
