FLYERS FEELIN F*CKED

IF I WAS A FLYER FAN, IT WOULD PROBABLY MEAN THAT I WOULD RESIGN IN PHILADELPHIA, WHICH SUCKS BY ITSELF. IT WOULD ALSO MEAN THAT AFTER 2 GAMES IN THE STANLEY CUP FINALS THE FLYERS ARE IN A DEEP HOLE THAT COULD GET DEEPER IF THE PUCK DOESN'T ROLL THERE WAY COME WEDNESDAY NIGHT IN PHILLY. SO THE BLACKHAWKS TOOK CARE OF HOME ICE IN 2 VERY DIFFERENT FASHIONS. GAME ONE WAS YOUR TYPICAL 49-49 FOOTBALL GAME WHERE DEFENSE WAS OPTIONAL. A 6-5 FINAL SCORE WAS NOT WHAT A FAN OF EITHER TEAM WOULD HAVE PREFERED, BUT SINCE I'M A FAN OF THE TEAM WITH THE INDIAN ON THE FRONT, I'LL TAKE IT. GAME 2 WAS A MUCH MORE PHYSICAL 6-3 TYPE FOOTBALL GAME WHERE DEFENSE WAS THE TRUE STAR NO MATTER HOW POTENT OR SUCCESSFUL EITHER OFFENSIVE WAS. ANTTI NIEMI IS CONTINUING TO ETCH HIS NAME INTO BLACKHAWK STARDOM WITH ANOTHER SOLID PERFORMANCE. MARIAN HOSSA HOPEFULLY HAS GOT SOME PEOPLE OFF HIS BACK WITH A GOAL IN THE 2ND PERIOD. HE WAS NEVER ON MY SH*T LIST, HE DOES PLENTY OF OTHER THINGS THAT HELP CONTRIBUTE TO THE BLACKHAWKS SUCCESS, NOT JUST SCORE GOALS. SO THAT'LL BRING THINGS TO GAME 3 WEDNESDAY NIGHT IN THE CITY OF BROTHERLY LOVE. IT DOESN'T SCARE ME THAT THE BRUINS BLEW A 3-0 LEAD AGAINST THIS FLYER SQUAD. WE WIN GAME 3 IT'S OVER, BABY. AND CONSIDERING THE WAY THE HAWKS HAVE BEEN PLAYING ON THE ROAD THIS PAST MONTH, I THINK IT'S SAFE TO SAY THAT WE WILL BE HEARING A HEAVY DOSE OF CHELSEA DAGGER FROM LATE WEDNESDAY TO GAME 4 FRIDAY. LET'S GO HAWKS!!!!

HOW SWEEP IT IS!!!!!

THAT'S RIGHT. A FOUR GAME SWEEP PREDICTED BY YOUR BEST SOURCE OF CHICAGO BLACKHAWK HOCKEY, EZ & MR. SKI AT THE TRIPLE DOUBLE EVERY SATURDAY FROM 10:30-1:00 ON SPORTSTOWNCHICAGO.COM. IT STARTED UGLY BUT THE BETTER TEAM DEFINTELY PREVAILED AND WE WILL HOST THE PHILADELPHIA FLYERS IF THEY TAKE CARE OF BUSINESS THIS UPCOMING MONDAY AGAINST THE HABS. MY GUESS IF THAT THIS SERIES GOES AT LEAST 6 GAMES. LET'S HOPE SO BECAUSE WE JUST WITNESSED HOW SOME REST CAN BENEFIT OUR BLACKHAWKS.

BROOMS WILL ALSO BE ON DISPLAY MONDAY NIGHT IN BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS AS THE BOSTON CELTICS WILL ATTEMPT TO SHUT OUT THE ORLANDO MAGIC IN 4 GAMES. EVEN ME, EZ, WHO DIDN'T EXPECT THE CELTS TO SWEEP THE MAGIC IN 4, HAS GOT THE BROOM OUT READY TO PUT THE "EVER SO POWERFUL" MAGIC IN THEIR PROVERBIAL DEATH BED.

HOW BOUT THEM SUNS??? AN EXCITING GAME 3 IN PHOENIX LED BY THE ONE AND ONLY....ROBIN LOPEZ? YES ROBIN LOPEZ. AND I WILL GIVE PROPS TO ESPN'S MICHAEL WILBON WHO SAID THAT IF THE SUNS WOULD BE A FACTOR IN THIS SERIES THAT ROBIN LOPEZ WOULD HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY ABOUT IT. AND I AM PROUD TO SAY THAT NUMBER 1, AMARE STOUDEMIRE, MAKE ME EAT ALL THE VOMIT THAT I PUKED UP IN THE LATEST EDITION OF THE SATURDAY PUKEFEST WHEN I CALLED HIM OUT FOR PLAYING LIKE HOT GARBAGE. HE ANSWERED IN GAME 3 WITH 41 POINTS AND 11 REBOUNDS. NOT A BAD LINE AMARE, IF I MAY SAY SO MYSELF.

THINGS WE KNOW.....

THE BLACKHAWKS WILL APPEAR IN THE STANLEY CUP FINALS, REGARDLESS OF WHAT HAPPENS ON SUNDAY. NO WAY THAT THE SHARKS ROLL OFF 4 STRAIGHT, I DON'T CARE WHAT THE FLYERS DID TO THE BRUINS. IT AIN'T HAPPENING WITH THE BLACKHAWKS. THEY GOT TOO MUCH MOXY TO GIVE IT UP, ESPECIALLY IF IT GOES BACK TO SAN JOSE.

WE DO KNOW THAT THE BOSTON CELTICS WILL REPRESENT THE EASTERN CONFERENCE IN THE NBA FINALS. NOW IF YOU TOLD ME THAT THE CELTS WOULD BE UP 3-0 BEFORE THE SERIES STARTED I WOULD'VE TOLD YOU TO CHECK YO'SELF. HOWEVER, THE CELTICS NOT ONLY PLEASANTLY SUPRISED ME BUT HAVE SUPRISED THE ORLANDO MAGIC WHO LOOK ABSOLUTELY LOST AT TIMES. DOC RIVERS HAS THE CELTICS PLAYING LIKE THEY DID 2 YEARS AGO AND RAJON RANDO IS MAKING HIS CASE FOR THE MVP THIS POSTSEASON. HE WOULD DEFINETELY GET MY VOTE.

WE DO KNOW THAT IF THE PHOENIX SUNS WANT TO AT LEAST BE COMPETIVE AND SEND THIS SERIES BACK TO LOS ANGELES THERE GOING TO HAVE TO PLAY, OR AT LEAST ATTEMPT TO PLAY DEFENSE. SCORING 110 POINTS IS FINE, BUT GIVING UP 120 ISN'T GONNA GET IT DONE IN THE WESTERN CONFERENCE FINALS. THE SUNS SHOULD KNOW THIS MORE THAN OTHER ANY TEAM IN THE NBA. BUT I GUESS IF LAMAR ODOM KEEPS GETTING "LUCKY" THEN THERES NOTHING THE SUNS CAN DO.

MUCH TO EARLY TO SAY THAT WE KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT OUR 2 BASEBALL TEAMS IN CHICAGO OTHER THAN THAT THE PLAY AS OF LATE HAS BEEN BELOW AVERAGE. HOWEVER, WHAT BETTER TIME THAN NOW TO AT LEAST ATTEMPT TO TURN IT AROUND THAN NOW? CUBS TRY TO WIN THE 3 GAME SERIES WITH THE RANGERS TOMORROW AND THE SOX ATTEMPT TO SWEEP THE FISH. HUGE SERIES LATER THIS MONTH AS THE SOX PLAY 3 AT CLEAVLAND AND 4 AT TAMBA BAY. CUBS WILL SEE FOR THE FIRST TIME THIS YEAR THOSE DAMN REDBIRDS FROM ST. LOUIS.

IT IS ALSO KNOWN THAT THE TRIPLE DOUBLE WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE TO THE MASSES NEXT WEEK DUE TO THE MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND SO BE SURE TO CHECK THE BLOG REGULARLY TO STAY UPDATED ON EVERYTHING THAT IS RELATIVE TO THE SPORTING SCENE IN CHICAGO. ALSO COMING SOON THE 2010 TRIPLE DOUBLE MLB ALL STAR PREVIEW SHOW. EVERYTHING ABOUT MLB AND THE BEST OF THE BEST AS WE WILL TELL YOU WHO SHOULD BE INVITED TO THE MIDSUMMER CLASSIC IN ANAHEIM IN EARLY JULY. STAY TUNED.....

BAD Baseball, Hoops & Commited Indian

Hawks take game two in the western finals, by Saturday's show we'll know the fate of game three which is here in Chicago Friday evening, hopefully good news and a Stanley Cup final to look forward to where our scrappy opponent will be Philly or Montreal, of whom the Canadiens will have something to say about that eastern series being down 0-2 currently.

Cubs and Sox have won, both with sweeps of their series versus the rockies and tigers respectively, too bad they weren't both four game sets. Lou just continuing to provide stellar audio which we'll for sure play and comment for you Saturday, Zambrano back to rotation...soon, long relief will have to do for now.

Boston taking game two from Orlando going up 2-0 in east finals, Lakers try to duplicate that feat tomorrow...

Until Saturday, stay tuned sportstownchicago.com

4 GAME 1'S

THERE ALL DONE. NHL AND NBA PLAYOFF CONFERENCE FINALS ALL HAVE CONCLUDED GAME NUMBER ONE. AND HERE IS WHAT WE LEARNED...

HAWKS VS. SHARKS

THIS IS GOING TO BE THE BLACKHAWKS TOUGHEST OPPONENT THUS FAR AS THE CHASE FOR LORD STANLEY'S CUP CONTINUES. THERE'S PLENTY OF 2ND GUESSING GOING ON IN SAN JOSE AS SHARKS HEAD COACH TODD MCLELLAN DECIDED TO GAMBLE ON THE FACE OFF IN THE DEFENSIVE ZONE THAT LEAD TO EVANTUAL GAME WINNING SHOT BY DUSTIN BYFUGLIEN BY NOT CHANGING HIS LINE AND LEAVING HIS FIRST LINE OUT THERE. IT CAN BE ARGUED THAT GAME 1 SHOULD'VE WENT INTO OVERTIME AND WE WOULD BE DOWN 0-1. HOWEVER THE WAY THAT NIEMI WAS PLAYING BETWEEN THE PIPES MAYBE WE WOULD'VE WON ANYWAY. A HUGE GAME ONE WIN NONETHELESS.

FLYERS VS. CANADIENS

IT APPEARS THAT THE HABS NETMINDER JAROSLAV HALAK CAN INDEED BE RATTLED AS THE FLYERS TOOK GAME ONE IN A DOMINANT FASHION SHUTTING OUT THE CANADIENS 6-0. HALAK GAVE UP 4 GOALS ON 14 SHOTS AND WAS PULLED EARLY ON IN THE 2ND PERIOD. THE PRESSURE IS SURLY ON MONTREAL NOW....AS IT WAS WHEN THEY STARTED OFF IN THE PLAYOFFS AS THEY BEAT BOTH THE CAPITALS AND PENGUINS ON THE ROAD IN GAME 7'S. THIS IS NOT A SITUATION THERE NOT ACCUSTOMED TO AND PERHAPS THEY PLAY BEST WHEN BEHIND THE 8BALL.

CELTICS VS. MAGIC

NOT ONLY ARE THE CELTICS HEALTHY, THERE PLAYING LIKE THEY DID 2 YEARS AGO WHEN THEY WENT ON TO WIN THE NBA CHAMPIONSHIP. THE MAGIC ARE NO STRANGERS TO BEING DOWN TO THE CELTICS HOWEVER, LAST YEAR THE CELTS WERE TAKEN TO A GAME 7 AND LOST TO A HUNGRY MAGIC TEAM THAT HAD TO WIN THE LAST 2 GAMES TO ADVANCE. THE DIFFERENCE? KEVIN GARNETT WILL BE ON THE COURT PUMPING HIS CHEST AS OPPOSED TO DOING IT IN A SUIT AND TIE. ALSO RASHEED WALLACE IS ACTUALLY SHOWING UP IN THIS POSTSEASON. SOMETHING HE DIDN'T DO IN 82 GAMES FOR BOSTON.

LAKERS VS. SUNS

IF THE SUNS THINK THEY CAN TRY AND GET INTO A SCORING CONTEST WITH L.A. THEN IT'S GONNA BE A QUICK EXIT FOR ALVIN GENTRY'S SQUAD. KOBE ABSOLUTELY LIT THEM UP IN GAME ONE. I'M VERY INTRIGUED TO SEE WHAT THE SUNS DO TO THE BLACK MAMBA IN GAME 2. IF I'M A SUN, I'M GONNA LET SOMEONE ELSE BEAT ME. PROBLEM IS THAT PAU GASOL ANDREW BYNUM AND LAMOR ODOM AT TIMES PROPOSE MISMATCHES ON THE COURT AND INSTEAD OF LOSING BY 20 THEY'LL LOSE BY 10. THEY HAVE THEIR WORK CUT OUT FOR THEM.

SO THERE YOU HAVE IT. 4 GAME 1'S IN 2 MINUTES. 3 GAME 2'S WILL TAKE PLACE LATER TONIGHT. SOME SERIES MAY BE EVENED UP. OTHERS MAY TAKE A TURN FOR THE WORST AS HOME ICE/COURT MAY VERY WELL BE TAKEN ABRUPTLY BY CHICAGO AND BOSTON. PHILLY TRIES TO CONTINUE THEIR MOMENTUM BUT I GOT A FEELING HALAK IS GONNA HAVE ONE OF THOSE GAMES............CATCH YOU AT THE LOCAL WATERING HOLE!!!!

ONE OF THOSE DAYS....

THAT IS WHAT THIS SATURDAY THE 15TH OF MAY IS. ONE OF THOSE DAYS IN WHICH THERE REALLY ISN'T ANY MAJOR SPORTING EVENT TO CONSUME THE MASSES. NO OFFENSE TO THE MMA FANS OUT THERE BUT YOU KNOW WHEN THE MAIN NATIONAL APPEAL IS A STRIKEFORCE EVENT THERE'S NOT MUCH GOING ON TODAY. PLUS I'M CHEAP AND DON'T GET SHOWTIME! SO THIS IS A GOOD DAY TO ENJOY THE FINER THINGS IN LIFE. LIKE A WALK IN THE PARK, THROWING BAGS, PLAYING BEER BONG, GOIN OUT TO THE BAR AND HOOKING UP WITH WHO YOU THINK IS A PRECIOUS YOUNG LADY AND WHEN YOU WAKE UP THE NEXT MORNING IT TURNS OUT TO BE PRECIOUS HERSELF. DAMN BEER GOGGLES. SO HOPEFULLY THINGS GO WELL. OR AT LEAST BETTER THAN THERE GOING FOR MY CUBS. YET ANOTHER LOSS TO THE POWERHOUSE THAT IS THE PITTSBURGH PIRATES. THE F*CKIN PIRATES HAVE BEATIN US THE LAST 7 TIMES THAT WE HAVE MET. AT LEAST THE SOX GET THE ROYALS.....WHO ARE CURRENTLY BEATING THE SOX 4-1. CHICAGO BASEBALL IS AWESOME....

LET THE LEBRON COUNTDOWN BEGIN......

CELTICS WIN CAVS LOSE. OH YEA I CALLED IT. SO YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS........"WHERE WILL THE KING BE PLAYING BASKETBALL NEXT YEAR?" I THINK HE'LL STAY IN CLEAVLAND. HOWEVER THEY'RE MANY TEAMS THAT HAVE PLACED THEMSELVES IN THE FINANCIAL POSITION TO MAKE A SERIOUS RUN AT A FREE AGENT OF JAMES'S CALIBER. AND THE CHICAGO BULLS ARE AMONG THE SELECT FEW. SO LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT THE POSSIBLE FUTURE DESTINATIONS FOR THE "CHOSEN ONE".

-CHICAGO BULLS

WITH ROUGHLY 20 MILLION DOLLARS TO DANGLE IN FRONT OF THE KING, THE BULLS ARE A TOP 5 CONTENDER SIMPLY BECAUSE OF THE SUPPORTING CAST THAT WE HAVE HERE IN THE CHI. DERRICK ROSE, JOAKIM NOAH, TAJ GIBSON, AND TAKE YOUR MONTAGE OF KIRK HINRICH, LUOL DENG, & JAMES JOHNSON. THE BULLS CAST AS IT IS NOW IS MUCH MORE ATTRACTIVE THAN WHAT LEBRON WAS PLAYING WITH IN CLEAVLAND. PLUS YOU GOTTA FIGURE THAT JOE JOHNSON KINDA PLAYED HIS WAY OUT OF MAX CONTRACT STATUS SO MAYBE WE CAN GRAB JJ? SO YOUR LOOKING AT A POSSIBLE STARTING LINEUP OF DERRICK ROSE, JOE JOHNSON, LEBRON JAMES, TAJ GIBSON, AND JOAKIM NOAH.....OH....MY........GOD!!!

-LOS ANGELES CLIPPERS

IT'S NO SECRET THAT LBJ IS A DIVA. AND WHAT BETTER CITY TO SHOW OFF YOU GLITZ AND GLAMOUR THAT LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA. MONEY WISE THEY ARE ABOUT IN THE SAME BOAT AS THE BULLS ARE BEING THAT THEY'RE PROBABLY ONLY GONNA BE ABLE TO OFFER ONE MAX CONTRACT. NOW THE BULLS HAVE A FABOLOUS CORE OF PLAYERS, BUT DO THE CLIPS HAVE ENOUGH SUPPORTING CAST TO COUNTER? THIS NBA FAN SAYS YES. BARON DAVIS IS NO DERRICK ROSE, BUT HE HAS PROVEN IN YEARS PAST THAT HE CAN DEFINETELY PLAY AT AN EXTREMLY HIGH LEVEL AS A POINT GUARD. THE YOUNG ERIC GORDON HAS BEEN PLAYING OUT OF HIS HOOSIER MIND IN HIS FIRST 2 YEARS IN THE PRO'S. CHRIS KAMAN HAS DEFINETELY TURNED HEADS THIS YEAR. AND LET'S NOT FORGET THE NUMBER ONE DRAFT PICK LAST YEAR, BLAKE GRIFFIN, WHO MISSED THE ENTIRE YEAR DUE TO INJURY. YOU ADD A LEBRON JAMES TO THE MIX AND TINSLETOWN WILL DEFINETELY HAVE 2 MAJOR CONTENDERS.

-NEW YORK KNICKS

THE KNICKS HAVE BEEN PUTTING THEMSELVES IN THIS POSITION SINCE DONNIE WALSH SIGNED ON THE DOTTED LINE AND BECAME IN CHARGE OF RUNNING THE TEAM RELIEVING ISIAH THOMAS OF HIS DUTIES. YOU CANNOT MAKE AN ARGUMENT THAT LEBRON CAN END UP IN THE BIG APPLE OTHER THAN THAT THEY WILL MAKE HIM AN EXTREMLY RICH INDIVIDUAL. THEY WILL, HOWEVER, HAVE ENOUGH DOUGH TO POSSIBLY BRING ANOTHER FREE AGENT TO NYC. BUT HOW QUICKLY CAN THEY TURN THE KNICKS INTO A CONTENDER? IT HELPS THAT THEY'RE PLAYING IN THE EAST BUT IF HE CLAIMS HE WANTS TO WIN MORE THAN GET PAID THE KNICKS ARE NOT THE WAY TO GO.

-NEW JERSEY NETS

THE NETS, ON THE CONTRARY, HAVE A LITTLE MORE TO OFFER THAN THE KNICKERBOCKERS. NOW I KNOW WHAT YOUR THINKING, "HOW DO THE NETS HAVE MORE TO OFFER WHEN THEY BARELY WON DOUBLE DIGIT GAMES?" WELL JUST LOOK AT THE ROSTER. DEVON HARRIS IS A TOP 15 POINT GUARD AND IS ENTERING HIS PRIME. COURTNEY LEE IS NO SLOUCH NEITHER AT THE 2, ROOKIE TERRENCE WILLIAMS CAME ON STRONG LATE IN THE SEASON. BROOKE LOPEZ IS A FORMIDABLE BIG MAN AND CHRIS DOUGLAS-ROBERTS WAS TRULY THE ONLY BRIGHT SPOT FOR THIS TEAM FOR A MAJORITY OF THE SEASON. YOU ADD LBJ HERE AND THEY GET 30 GAMES BETTER.

-WASHINGTON WIZARDS

HERE IS THE ULTIMATE WILD CARD. THE WIZ WILL MOST LIKELY DECLINE THE 11.84 MILLION ON JOSH HOWARD'S OPTION. IF THEY DO NOT EXTEND THE QUALIFYING OFFER TO RANDY FOYE, THEN THERE LOOKING AT ENOUGH DEAD PRESIDENTS TO THROW AT THE KING. DON'T FORGET THAT THE WIZARDS ARE GONNA FINSIH WITH PROBABLY A TOP 5 DRAFT PICK. IF THE LOTTERY BALLS CAN BOUNCE THEIR WAY AND DRAFT JOHN WALL, WHO LEBRON HAS A FRIENDSHIP WITH, I WOULDN'T COUNT OUT THE WASHINGTON WIZARDS AS A POTENTIAL CONTENDER IN THE FINAL DESTINATION FOR LEBRON JAMES.

SO THERE YOU HAVE IT. SOME OF THE POSSIBILITIES FOR THE KING. I WILL NOW GO ON RECORD AND SAY THAT I DO THINK THAT HE WILL STAY IN CLEAVLAND BECAUSE I'VE BEEN SAYING IT FOR THE PAST YEAR SO I WON'T JUMP SHIP NOW...BUT IT'S FUN TO IMAGINE WHAT HE'LL LOOK LIKE IN A BULLS UNIFORM.

TO VANCOUVER...

WELL, TAKING THE SERIES 4-1 WOULD'VE BEEN NICE, BUT FINISHING IT IN 6 WILL DO I SUPPOSE. IF I MAY LOOK AT THE GLASS HALF FULL HERE, I DO BELIEVE THAT THIS VANCOUVER CANUCK TEAM THAT THE BLACKHAWKS SAW SUNDAY IS THE TEAM SAN JOSE WILL RESEMBLE MORE. MUCH MORE THAN THE VANCOUVER TEAM THAT WOULD COMMIT CLUTCH PENALITIES AT CLUTCH PERIODS IN THE GAME. SO WE GO IN TO BRITISH COLUMBIA THIS TUESDAY AND TAKE THE SERIES ON THEIR HOME ICE...I'LL TAKE THAT.

WHAT I WILL NOT TAKE IS ANYMORE ATLANTA HAWK BASKETBALL. DID I THINK THEY WOULD BEAT THE MAGIC? NO, I DID NOT. BUT DID I THINK THAT THEY WOULD LOSE BY AN AVERAGE OF 29 POINTS A GAME??? I DON'T THINK ANYBODY DID. AN ABSOLUTE EMBARRASMENT TO THE GAME OF BASKETBALL IS A GRAVE UNDERSTATMENT OF THE BRAND OF BASKETBALL THAT HEAD COACH MIKE WOODSON AND HAWKS ARE PUTTING ON DISPLAY. NO SENSE OF URGENCY ON EITHER SIDE OF THE FLOOR, NO ONE WANTS TO GET DIRTY OR BRUISED, AND IF IT WASN'T FOR JAMAL CRAWFORD, THE AVERAGE SCORE DIFFERENTIAL WOULD BE CLOSE TO 50. THIS HAS TO PUT A DENT IN THE RESUME OF FUTURE FREE AGENT JOE JOHNSON, WHO MANY BULLS FANS, ME INCLUDED, WOULD HAVE ENTERTAINED THE IDEA OF JOE JOINING DERRICK ROSE IN THE BACKCOURT NEXT SEASON. ATLANTA, SO LONG, AND THANKS FOR NOTHING.

ALSO A THANKS TO ALL THE BABY MAMA'S IN THE WORLD, ESPECIALLY MY OWN. SHOUT OUT TO THE PHOENIX SUNS WHO MADE IT LOOK WAY EASIER THAN I THINK ANY OF US ANTICIPATED....ESPECIALLY JR. I CANNOT WAIT UNTIL THE LAKERS AND SUNS GET UNDERWAY THAT'S GONNA BE FUN (SORRY UTAH). HOPEFULLY THE CELTS CAN TAKE CARE OF THE CLEAVLAND BRON BRON'S AND MAKE MY PRESEASON PREDICTION VALID FOR ONCE. BUT EVEN IF THEY DO THERE GONNA HAVE THEIR HANDS FULL WITH THE ORLANDO MAGIC. IT CAN BE ARGUED THAT THE MAGIC ARE PLAYING THE BEST BASKETBALL RIGHT NOW. BUT AS THEY SAY, THAT IS WHY THEY PLAY THE GAME.



PEACE.

Mighty Blackhawks

Open invitation to all to share your pukes on our Saturday pukefest every Saturday at noon, call us up at 630-403-5200 or e-mail the show 3tripledoubleshow@gmail.com

Blackhawks take control of the series vs Vancouver 2-1, I look for them to continue their choke hold on the Canucks in game 4, Niemi is the man right now and that's the key to getting far. So with two very inconsistent hitting and pitcing teams on both sides of town right now thank goodness for these hawks, embrace hockey Chicago it's here to stay for a while, I know I'm excited about it and I'm no hockey guy of any sort.

Talk to ya on Saturday!

DOUG GLANVILLE JOINS US

WE AT THE TRIPLE DOUBLE ARE PLEASED TO ANNOUNCE THAT FORMER PHILLIE, RANGER, AND CUB DOUG GLANVILLE WILL JOIN US IN ONE OF THE UPCOMING SATURDAYS TO TALK ABOUT HIS NEW BOOK, HIS CAREER DURING AND POST BASEBALL, AND SOME CUB RELATIONSHIPS THAT HE STILL HAS. DOUG PLAYED OUTFIELD FOR US AND AS I RECALL, HE HIT THE EVENTUALL GAME WINNING TRIPLE IN THE TOP OF THE 11TH AGAINST THE MARLINS IN SOUTH FLORIDA TO SEND BACK TO GIVE THE CUBS A 2-1 SERIES LEAD. CUBS WERE BACK IN CHICAGO WITH A 3-2 LEAD. DON'T REMEMBER WHAT HAPPEND IN GAME 6 AND NOBODY CARES (STUPID BARTMAN AND ALEX GONZALEZ MUFFING THE INNING ENDING DOUBLE PLAY BALL...). NOPE, CAN'T REMEMBER AT ALL ONCE THE DATE IS SET WE WILL DEFINTELY PUT IT ON THE BLOG SO EVERYONE CAN KNOW. OF COURSE WE WILL STILL HAVE THE SATURDAY PUKEFEST, CUBS/SOX DISCUSSION, THE BULLS SEARCH FOR A COACH, THAT IS IF VINNY IS GIVEN HIS PINK SLIP WHEN SATURDAY ARRIVES, BEARS, AND THE BLACKHAWKS ARE HOPEFULLY NOT IN A BIGGER HOLE THAN THEY ARE NOW. UNTIL NEXT TIME.......

GOOD PUKE

I FEEL MUCH BETTER AFTER GETTING MY ALLY MCBEAL ON DURING OUR FIRST EVER SATURDAY PUKEFEST. WHAT CAN I SAY LEBRON JAMES MAKES ME HURL. ANYWHO, NEXT WEEK WE WILL DEFINITELY TRY TO GET A GUEST ON TO DROP SOME KNOWLEDGE. HOPFULLY WERE TALKING A BLACKHAWKS SWEEP AS WELL, BUT I WON'T KEEP MY HOPES UP. I'M A CUBS FAN, WHAT CAN I SAY? AND TO BE FAIR TO DEZ BRYANT, I SUPPOSE THAT YOUR MOTHER COULD HAVE BEEN YOUR FATHERS TAILOR, OR ACCOUTANT, OR DRIVER.......OR BOTTOM BITCH. SORRY DEZ, YOUR A COWBOY NOW AND I HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO HATE YOU. IF THIS OFFENDS YOU, FEEL FREE TO DRY YOUR TEARS WITH YOUR NOW MILLIONS OF DOLLARS. AGAIN, YOU ARE A COWBOY , AND I MUST HATE YOU. TILL NEXT TIME PEOPLE, I'M OUT LIKE THE DALLAS MAVERICKS EVERY YEAR AFTER THE FIRST ROUND. STUPID SPURS...
