These managers and coaches can carve up opponents
Nov 7, 2014 12:17 PM - If there were separate Mount Rushmores for active managers/coaches in each of the four major sports leagues, I think it's fair to say that Chicago right now would be represented on three of them by Tom Thibodeau, Joel Quenneville and Joe Maddon. -
Spellman's Scorecard: Maddon hiring will be a real treat
Oct 30, 2014 9:28 PM - The main reason I'm excited about the anticipated arrival of Joe Maddon is that he's universally respected. It's been a long time since we've had a guy like that on the North Side. A real long time. -
Bears Bites: Raise the white flag
Oct 26, 2014 6:25 PM - Five of the Bears' last seven games are at home. That could mean an awful lot of empty seats at Soldier Field. Not only do the Bears get shellacked by the Pats, now they have the bye week to soak it all in … and then get to travel to Green Bay the following week. Good times. -

Bears Bites: Not many reasons to smile
Sep 28, 2014 4:12 PM - After starting out the season 1-2, Rodgers told freaked-out Packers fans to chillax. If Jay Cutler tried to do the same thing this week after a 2-2 start, how do you think Bears Nation would respond? Think we all know the answer. -
Konerko's big day deserves a Sox sellout
Sep 26, 2014 6:01 AM - Here's hoping Paul Konerko gets the type of send-off he deserves. His big day, the Bears-Packers and the Ryder Cup make for quite the weekend. -
Bears Bites: Half the defense hurt but still an impressive win
Sep 23, 2014 5:53 AM - Playing without about half your defense. On the road again, this time on the opposite coast and in prime time. To slog out this kind of win? In a word: Impressive. -
Could Niners' lavish pregame festivities give Bears an edge?
Sep 12, 2014 5:30 AM - Well, it seems like the consensus final score for Sunday night's game is somewhere in the vicinity of 49ers 38, Bears 13. Not so sure about that.
