Don't Do It Bulls!!

All of a sudden the Chicago Bulls are in talks again with another franchise, in a possible trade move to get a great player in the league today, Carmelo Anthony. I know, I know, it sounds great, looks even better on paper, and it's an awesome opportunity. Of course there is a catch to this wonderful endeavor, they would have to give up Joakim Noah. Don't do it please!!! I have enough confidence in the Bulls front office to say, they will stay away from that deal because it's just simply not smart. He may not be an All Star yet, but he is definitely the emotional leader of this team. Yes, D. Rose is the ultimate leader of this team, but vocally, it's all Noah. Not to mention, you take Joakim away, then that leaves you without a Center, then we might as well just move to Utah. Boozer needs that good young Center to back him up so he won't have to play out of position. Getting Carmelo Anthony would be a great piece to counter what happened in Miami this summer, but they should really look for another way to pick him up. Try to work another trade, give up a Taj Gibson and James Johnson and a draft pick for Melo'. It sounds like a lot, but the overall outcome would be worth it. The other team that Anthony is considering is the New York Knicks, which once again I believe would be a mistake for him, still not enough to go around him it's just Amare Stoudemire. I believe if John Paxson puts his mind in the right place, he can make this workout for Chicago and do big things.

Are The Bears Ready For The Season Opener

The Chicago Bears have less than one week of practice left before the season opener against the Detroit Lions, and from what we saw as fans during preseason, it's going to be a scary season. With the talks of such a great coaching staff, and Peppers joining in alongside Chester Taylor, and Brandon Manumaleuna, we were excited to see this new look team in action. Well, things didn't seem that way through all four games in the preseason in this 2010 season. The offensive line looked the same as they always do, with Jay Cutler getting hit and sacked way too much. In this complicated offense, if they want to be successful, then they must give Cutler more time to throw the ball. To be honest, the problem that everyone thought was going to be the biggest issue hasn't been so bad, the Bears receiving core. With bright spots in Johnny Knox and Devin Aromashadeau, this seems to be the least of their problems. Defensively, the main issue seems to be in the secondary. The D line has new life with Julius Peppers leading them, and the linebackers need to find a way to remain healthy. Overall, if the offense is what worries me the most due to the fact that we didn't see much improvement unless the genius, Mike Martz, has something up his sleeve and won't unveil it until Sunday. Will this be the greatest show on sod? Or is this going to be another disappointing, long drawn out season?
