Another Bulls blog picks up my slack

by your friendly BullsBlogger on Jul 10, 2007 10:16 PM CDT in News

Say hello to 'Only the Bulls' (and hello to hscs's revived blog, since he alerted me to this site), a Bulls blog who I assume got it's name after that radio jingle that's in my head but I can't quite place as from where. Is it on the official telecasts? ("only the one and only...CHICAGO BULLS!")

Anyway, they have a take on the news of the weekend, touching on Nocioni's contract (front-loaded, which makes things slightly more palatable), Ben Gordon's agent switch, and rumblings on Luis Scola.

wow this site has pictures!

New pictures. I love it! Well it was nice knowing you!

The truth is there will be no trades, these are your Chicago Bulls.

besides, plenty of other Bulls sites have come and gone over the years, I welcome a few staying around.

did tyrus get new tats?

by joejoeEnglish94bulls4ever on Jul 10, 2007 10:49 PM CDT 0 recs

Yes, that's what the dynamic Pepsi League

announcing crew said.

AS I try not to look at tats (why, why would anyone willingly have a needle stuck on their skin to form a picture?), I can't say if he has or hasn't.

they like attention.

Or the way of the Pirate.

Chandler Tats

Let's hope Tyrus doesn't go the way of Tyson Chandler, who came back after every offseason at the exact same, puny weight, but with more and more tatoos.

On Bulls blogs

I like the new one. It'd make my life easier if these guys merged, seeing as how they're all Blogspot brethren, but all good.

Shhhh...

We had been plotting a hostile takeover, but I suppose that cat's outta the bag now.

And while you're at it

Check and see if this guy is still alive... might not be after the Bulls lost game 3 to the Pistons.

A Scola trade question

If Pax trades for him do we have "Bird Rights" with him or do we have to sign him while still being under the cap?

by LD9 on Jul 11, 2007 12:48 AM CDT 0 recs

Rookie Contract

So you can sign him and go over the cap, the problem is with the buy out. I'm not exactly sure how that would work.

by Wade.Jones on Jul 11, 2007 3:30 AM CDT up 0 recs

Buy-out

I believe the buy out is not taken into account when calculating the luxury tax. Not that this is a solid indication but thats how it works in other sports (Baseball-yankees buy out kei igawa's contract)

by Sambossanova on Jul 11, 2007 12:07 PM CDT up 0 recs

he was a second-round pick

so to sign him they have to use their exception money.

by your friendly BullsBlogger on Jul 11, 2007 8:40 AM CDT up 0 recs

but

they can give him the minimum exception....the CBA allows you to give as many minimum salaries as needed to fill out roster

in miles' typing news, the new version of Firefox has spell check embedded in typing. Yay for readability!

by milesgmsu on Jul 11, 2007 11:35 AM CDT up 0 recs

right, I said they can use their exception

I could have said exception(s), but Scola's not coming over to make the minimum, sheesh.

by your friendly BullsBlogger on Jul 11, 2007 12:05 PM CDT up 0 recs

that "sheesh"

reminded me of Sam Smith.

Thanks for the Link!

Means a lot to a new blog. Been a long time reader here, great stuff. Definitely NOT competition(it's a community!). Oh, and I believe the song is still played before every game.

just wait

The Fanhouse could grace you with less than 5 readers any day now.

Nice Job

Remember a healthy Nocioni, the one you loved.

by Option27 on Jul 11, 2007 10:06 AM CDT up 0 recs

The Song...

I believe was played before every game during one of the second 3-peat years..

There was also a song with the lyrics.. "guess who's back... the red and white bulls"

hence my signature...

The red and white

Yeah he does

by sue369 on Jul 11, 2007 12:07 PM CDT up 0 recs

Great picture.

:) and he is not leaving the gym until he hits 700 15 footers.

by Jesse07 on Jul 11, 2007 12:26 PM CDT up 0 recs

I don't think he was that small last year.

I mean, he wasn't Alonzo Mourning or Kevin Willis, but he wasn't Kevin Durant or Adam Morrison, either.

Yes, of course.

Great Skiles Quotes

I love the Skiles quotes under the Linton Johnson III article. Especially this one:
"Linton, obviously, stands out with 13 defensive rebounds, which is very impressive considering our center (Eddy Curry) got 1."
