The Chicago Blackhawks swept the San Jose Sharks to make the Stanley Cup Finals. The Sharks continue to be the best team in the regular season and then get taken out come playoff time. The Philadelphia Flyers beat the Montreal Canadiens last night to close out their series 4-1. The City of Brotherly Love VS. The Windy City. The Blackhawks are the favorite, and I feel they will win the Stanley Cup. The series begins this Saturday night in Chicago on NBC. The City of Chicago will be buzzing all week. But that is not the only thing that is buzzing in Chicago today.
Terrell Owens is flirting with the Chicago Bears. He has been hanging out with Jay Cutler and Greg Olsen. It appears that TO wants to be a Bear, and I'm pretty sure Cutler does too so that he actually has someone to play catch with. Lovie Smith is on the hot seat, and with the Packers supposedly the favorites next year in the NFC Central and Favre having surgery to play another year, its not looking good in Chi-town come fall. Sometimes coaches and organizations have to take a risk to be competitive or at least try. Don't be surprised if TO is a Bear come August.
The other big news of the day is that their is a report that Phil Jackson would be interested in the Chicago Bulls job, and I bet their is a catch to that. Lebron James has to become a Bull, then Phil would sign on the dotted line. Otherwise why leave LA and Kobe for Chicago or anywhere else. The Lebron James story may be the only story that actually will keep the Favre news away this summer.
If only the Cubs could get hot right now, then Chicago would be the Mecca of sports right now if its not already.
Things to come Soon: Craziest Sport in the world, and its deadly. Soccer(Futbol) in Spain.
I just might have to watch the hockey game tonight. I didn't think it'd be on regular tv. Cool Beans.
ReplyDeleteAs for Terrell Owens...That would make an interesting offensive setup for my Bears. Combine the skill of him with the speed of Hester and Knox add a great TE Olsen to the mix...and teams may have a problem with coverage and that could make the Bears passing game very difficult to defend, (if the offensive line can block for longer than 2-3 seconds of course).
I'm just praying that Urlacher will be able to play longer than 1/2 a game this season. That is where I think they really fell short last year, (defense), Urlacher is the support structure for that defense...and it was apparent last season.
Cubs will get hot. The Reds & Redbirds have got it coming...you'll see. I'm just happy to see Soriano actually trying hard on defense and running the bases.
