Marc Stein and Bill Simmons on the Bulls 'dysfunction'
This is from this week's Bill Simmons podcast with Marc Stein. They got into some free agent talk, and Stein really hammers the Bulls front office as if it's common knowledge, and the once bullish Simmons agrees. Here's my best transcription: [getting off a discussion of Cavs failing to blow...
Morning Shootaround: Tweet Tweet, Bringing Back Big Ben, Reinsdoofus, and a Fun Fact
It's early Sunday morning and I figured I'd do a little shoot around the web to some links that I think are worthy of a read. After the Pistons' performance on Sundays last season, a Sunday morning shootaround never hurt anybody. Let's kick things off with a little Twitter talk. I'm not going to...
