  1. Hawks talk of town

    <strong>Dan McNeil</strong> previously had been muzzled for much of his two-decade plus sports talk radio career when it came to discussing his passion, hockey. The WSCR-AM 670 late morning host even received an edict once when the team was in a Stanley Cup Final.

  2. Predicting NHL playoffs perilous

    If anybody in the sports observation business ever tells you he or she doesn't take enormous joy in being right, they're lying.
    If anybody in the sports observation business ever tells you he or she doesn't take enormous joy in being right, they're lying. Everybody with a laptop or a microphone relishes every opportunity to spike the ball after a prediction — be it on a...

  3. Blackhawks got lucky

    I agree with the adage that suggests "luck is where hard work meets opportunity."
    I agree with the adage that suggests "luck is where hard work meets opportunity." It was coined by a first-century Roman philosopher named Seneca, but I always attribute it to former Blackhawk Richie Preston. It's more colorful that way and it's a way...

  4. This no time to extend Smith's contract

    Of course Phil Emery and Lovie Smith denied they have been knocking knees over a fresh contract for the coach. There's no upside for either of them if they indicate otherwise.
    Of course Phil Emery and Lovie Smith denied they have been knocking knees over a fresh contract for the coach. There's no upside for either of them if they indicate otherwise. If they're being truthful and Emery does wait until after the season for such...

  5. Ricketts to blame for Wood

    It became obvious several years ago that when the final chapter of the Kerry Wood story was written, it wasn't going to have a happy ending. An ugly last act, however, could have been avoided.
    It became obvious several years ago that when the final chapter of the Kerry Wood story was written, it wasn't going to have a happy ending. An ugly last act, however, could have been avoided. I'm not going to blame Wood. Nor will I point the finger at...

  6. Not time to panic about Reed — yet

    If Addison Reed now appears on your list of White Sox concerns as the division leaders brace themselves for the dog days of August, I understand why.

  7. Words won't win it for Bears

    Marc Trestman was a smash at his introductory news conference Thursday in Lake Forest. The Bears new head coach definitively answered "yes" to the qualities Phil Emery suggested were requisite for the job when the Bears general manager outlined his blueprint on New Year's Day.

  8. Jaguars give Bears defense chance to shine

    It doesn't look like a fair fight. The Bears, fresh off an explosive blowout victory over the Cowboys on the national stage, against the Jaguars, who've been outscored 54-17 at EverBank Field and are 1-3.

  9. Smith's dismissal renews hope

    With each New Year there arrives the chance to clear the slate and begin anew. I was delighted the Bears did that Monday when they showed Lovie Smith the door. It made for a more celebratory Rockin' Bears New Year's Eve than the Fog Bowl victory over...

    In less than three weeks, there will be answers to all the questions being debated around water coolers from Milwaukee to Merrillville.

  11. Next 2 games watershed for Cutler

    I'm relieved the Bears have concluded the junior varsity portion of their schedule and finally have a worthy opponent Sunday night at Soldier Field. The comedy of errors in Nashville was entertaining, but it's time for a 15-round bout between two legitimate heavyweight contenders.

  12. Emery needs to strengthen Bears offensive line

    Greed is unattractive, but what kind of poker player walks away from the table when the dealer keeps throwing him hot cards?
    Greed is unattractive, but what kind of poker player walks away from the table when the dealer keeps throwing him hot cards? I got my wish when the Bears closed the book on Brian Urlacher's career here. As a bonus, Urlacher whined like a jilted...
