Congratulations to the Big Ten for having the top two teams in the country. With Northwestern and Illinois, you have an excellent shot at bookends.
2. Wait a second
The Gators became the fourth No. 2 team to lose. It’s never easy being second fiddle, as most Sox fans can tell you.
3. Brawl recall
Shame on the ‘Canes for fighting. I haven’t seen anything that unsightly out of Miami since David Caruso’s makeup artist called in sick.
4. That’s Kerr-rect!
Ex-Bull Steve Kerr predicts on Yahoo! that the Bulls will win the Central Division. He always was good with the long shot.
5. Shaky premise
T.O., was that supposed to be an end zone dance or were you convulsing? Somebody call the paramedics!
6. Just asking …
… because, you know, we have seen you in the end zone enough to know the difference.
7. Time and space
The Cardinals were in Chicago, then St. Louis, then Arizona. After Monday night against the Bears, I wonder what planet they’ll be on.
8. Last warning
Rex Grossman said this is a chance for the Bears to make another statement to the nation. Yes. “Beware.”
9. We’re not in … oh, yeah, we are
Wait, the Bulls played a game in Kansas? I didn’t realize Kirk Hinrich had that kind of pull.
FIVE THINGS
Other places the Bulls should play.
-In Mayor Daley’s office.
-In Cancun, as guests of Joe Francis.
-On that “Lost” island.
-In T.O.’s spacious ego.
-The Playboy Mansion. I’ll get my key.
