TOPIC 1: THE BULLS LOST TO MEMPHIS AFTER BEATING DETROIT. WHO GETS THE BOOT NEXT?

Nobody. They all deserve what they’re getting.

Jo Noah. Oh wait, did you mean “boot” or “booty”?

Ben Wallace. The Lakers are offering Nicholson and DiCaprio, which is more than fair.

When Benny the Bull is the

face of your franchise, anyone

is expendable.

Time to start looking at the

bigwigs. Sorry, John Paxson.

TOPIC 2: WHAT TRADE WOULD YOU MAKE TO IMPROVE THE BULLS?

Deng, Hinrich and whoever

else for Kobe. Think it’s still on the table?

I’d trade the Bulls bench for

an Oscar Mayer sandwich.

Both are baloney.

Building on No. 1, ship Ty

Thomas and a draft pick to

New York for Spike Lee.

Anyone with a heart for

Ben Wallace.

Anything but Kobe. He is an egotistical cancer that should be avoided at all costs.

TOPIC 3: MAKE UP A NAME FOR THE TWO WEEKS LEADING UP TO THE SUPER BOWL.

Hell Weeks.

Bowl Slaw — an unfilling side dish that detracts from the

main event.

Given the typical media

presence, “14 Days Later.”

The waste-of-time Pregame Show.

The Black Hole.

TOPIC 4: HOW RELIEVED ARE YOU THAT COLTS COACH TONY DUNGY DIDN’T RETIRE?

Ranks right up there with being relieved oil companies have been given tax breaks.

If he went out Tony

Soprano-style, would they play “Don’t Stop Achievin’ “?

It’s a relief knowing at least one coaching job isn’t available to the Petrinos of the world.

America is one again.

I am not a Colts fan, therefore

I am not a Tony Dungy fan.

TOPIC 5: SEN. JOHN MCCAIN AND CHUCK NORRIS ARE VERBALLY SPARRING. HELP THEM SETTLE IT.

OK. First one to break away from the kiss loses. GO!

They should use coot force.

Let’s make it fair: McCain is allowed brass knuckles. Norris is allowed one beard whisker.

It better stay verbal for

McCain’s sake.

John, you do realize

Chuck Norris could kick

your ass, right?
