'We can't throw too much at him because he's starting right now and playing a big role. With some of those bottom-of-the-barrel rookies, you can kind of take more advantage of them. Derrick Rose, slowly but surely when he finds his role, we'll have him doing some chores.

I have no doubt

they will find some fun “chores” for him as the season goes on.

I’m gonna rule this world. I’m gonna kick some ass. I’m gonna rise up, gonna kick a little ass. Rock, flag, and eagle!"

I always got the feeling that our guys were kind of mellow on the rooks anyway

You read about some teams making the rookies carry around dolls or little pink backpacks, and the only things I ever remember hearing about in Chicago are Joakim and the wrong donuts and then when they’ve had them sing, I think that was at the team scrimmage.

Man-slave, bring me my PB&J!

Kendall Gill said

last year or the year before that he always made Kirk fix his sandwich when they were on the plane. He would always send it back for more mayo or something else. :-)
