Julio Borbon Desperately Wants You To Think He Was Hit By This Pitch
It really is a gripping performance. You have to respect how thoroughly Borbon commits himself to the act, even taking time to bend over in faux agony as the plate umpire tries to explain to Dale Sveum that the ball was a good two feet from touching Borbon. Bravo, Julio....
Blackhawks Raise Ticket Prices For The Fourth Time In Six Years

Patrick Kane's Middle Finger Is Ready For The Playoffs [Update: Doppelkaner]
Rest easy, Blackhawks fans. The Stanley Cup playoffs begin tonight, and Patrick Kane looks like for all the world like he's back to behaving like Patrick Kane, which is to say he and his middle finger were spotted at a bar in Lincoln Park the other night....
"And That's The Cubs? My Fuckin' Ass!": Lee Elia's Famous Rant Is 30
On April 29, 1983, the Cubs lost by a run to the Dodgers at Wrigley Field, dropping them to 5-14, last place in the National League East. Afterward, a reporter asked Cubs manager Lee Elia a question about fan support. Elia responded with an unrivaled fusillade of profanities....
The Bulls Win 3OT Classic Against Nets And What The Hell Is This Photo
As we noted a couple of times (Nate Robinson scuffling! Nate Robinson banking in a 20-foot runner!) this afternoon the Bulls' 142-134 triple overtime win over the Nets was straight-up bananagrams and what on earth is happening in this AP photo....
The Final Seconds Of Overtime In Chicago Were Nuts
Nate Robinson—whose own mother would probably fight him, too—almost won the game for the Bulls with this ridiculous floating runner from just inside the three-point line. ...
Bulls Fans Break Out The Big Guns, Clothe Michael Jordan Statue
The Bulls and Nets are headed to overtime in Game 4 of their series and it is almost assuredly because of this little bit of Chicago voodoo....
Anibal Sanchez's 17-K Game Trumped Even Randy Johnson's 1992 "Hammer From Hell" Game
If we can indulge in a brief moment of Welcome Back, Baseball — still early enough in the season, right? — it’s a joy to watch a sport that puts the ball in the hands of the defense. Virtually any other sport you care to name turns a defensive player into an offensive player as soon as he takes poss...
Nate Robinson And C.J. Watson Wrestle In Chicago
Tempers flared in Chicago with seven minutes left in the second quarter as Nate Robinson and C.J. Watson got a little physical on a Brooklyn possession....
This Tweet About Patrick Kane Could Not Be More Inaccurate
Nice to see Kaner up to his old tricks. In Edmonton!...
Patrick Kane Successfully Completes Taxi Ride
A few days out from the playoffs (and a possible first-round matchup with Detroit), Patrick Kane is doing some shilling for Uber, a startup that allows you to order a car service via smartphone app. But perhaps more importantly for the Blackhawks forward, it doesn't require him or the driver to carr...
C.J. Watson Hits Halftime Buzzer-Beater, Walks Off Court
He actually walked off before the shot even went in. The buzzer sounds with the ball still in the air and he just heads for the locker room. Once it goes in he hops out of the picture....
This Is The Worst Tattoo Of Nate Robinson You Will Ever See
OK, sorry, that headline is a bit sensational. Not because there might actually be a worse Nate Robinson tattoo out there, but because this is probably the only Nate Robinson tattoo that exists in the world. Anyway, holy shit, this tattoo!...
Sad Derrick Rose, Likely Out For Season, Gets Sued By Newly Obese Fan
It just keeps getting worse for Derrick Rose fans. The Chicago Bulls point guard tore his ACL in the first round of the 2012 playoffs, and we haven't seen him in a game since. They were without their star all year, but the Bulls still fought their way to a playoff berth, finishing fifth in the East...
Jean Segura Stole Second Base, Then Got Caught Trying To Steal Second
One indication of just how strange Jean Segura’s adventures on the basepaths were in Milwaukee’s 5-4 win over the Cubs last night: The first 19 paragraphs of the Associated Press's 33-paragraph game story were about his baserunning in the eighth inning....
Rick Telander Doesn't Realize That Baseline "Raptors" Sign Isn't Real
It's been two seasons since Toronto introduced their 3D, optical illusion "Raptors" sign underneath each basket. It was sort of cool at first, and even now good for a moment of "oh yeah," whenever you catch a Raps game. But at least we all understand how it works. One Sun-Times columnist does not....
