In Chicago - Anything Is An Excuse To Hire A Goon

I hope I’m not alone in assuming these guys did shit like this all the time. I think we’re way past the ability to be shocked by tame pictures.

as long as da Bears were winning…………….
WTF win the cup !!

…someone better get out the ladder so we can pull some retired numbers from the rafters.

okay, but fighting. And but heavyweights and enforcing. Doesn’t anyone understand?

ive been successfully skipping his “writing” til today….

Please consider death as an alternative to writing about sports in arguably the best sports city in the nation.

Signed,

Die hard Chicago sports fans

First order of business: did you guys see what those Blackhawks did? Crusin’ in a limo with young chicks on an off night.

You know, that kind of objectification of women and general liberine behavior- well, us NHL tough guys, we got no truck with those antics, right?

Let’s smash their faces in.

Question: whart planet would this conversation take place on?

Morrissey deserves credit for getting all dressed up in a clown suit and handing you the seltzer bottle, though. Nice post.

Holy shit.

Don’t we have a game to talk about?

San Jose maybe?

How am I supposed to prepare for this game when all anybody can talk about is the hawks without shirts on?

Was it happening on the way to or between periods of a game?

Aren’t there media people in the locker room?

Anybody see Venus Williams asssuit the other day?

came from the scene where Braden took off all his clothes and gear and skated around the tough guys. Oglethorpe won’t stand for shit like that.

these Hawks should be focused on winning hockey games!!! oh wait.

Where he writes that this year’s team is a bunch of childish punks.
Unlike last year when the team took a bus to his good friend Tallon’s father’s funeral.
Probably find some way to blame it on Stan too.

I wish they were with Hossa chicks.

That is all I have to say about that

Is not so much the article itself as it is the back cover of the Suntimes today. The four photos are on the back cover of the fucking paper. Good lord, I know that papers need to be sold, but do you really have to embarrass athletes from our most successful team by actually putting the photos on the cover?

For fuck’s sake, the previously inept Bulls have won 4 road games in a row….isn’t that cover worthy?!

I’m not surprised that Morrisey wrote on the topic, but publishing photos of perfectly legal activity (especially on the cover) is beyond dumb. Lance Briggs’ trashed lamborghini I get, but this….

That would be good.

Now, how to get rid of that Heatley bastard.

We’ll be skins.

John may be in a bind with his old lady, but okay, whats the deal with the rest of the guys? I was that age once, and am sure I would have done the same thing given the chance. I’m married and fear I would have done the same as John, but already know I did’nt wouldn’t.

I would figure reporters may actually have a clue about the topic they are reporting before being stupid. Guess I was wrong.

Or at least, you know. Stay sane. I’ll settle with knowing there’s at least one writer in Chicago who can make sense at a time like this.

It should be pointed out that the Hawks confirmed the pictures were taken on Saturday night AFTER the team’s 5-1 loss to the Canucks and with the players knowing coach Joel Quenneville had given them Sunday off.

[…]

The Hawks were angry with themselves for losing. I was in the dressing room GM Place and saw it. But it was game 52 in an 82-game schedule, the fifth stop on an eight-game, 15-day road trip. Isn’t this a team that has proven itself time and time again this season to earn the benefit of the doubt from fans for an occasional loss? Look at the body of work here. It was one loss in January.

These were three players on a 21-man roster photographed. Where do you think the others were that night? I guarantee you most of them, if not all of them, were out on the town as well. All that is missing is the photo evidence.

This just in: Pro athletes like to go out on the road. Stop the presses.

And one last thing: For anyone to even remotely compare these limo pictures to Theo Fleury getting beat up in a Columbus strip club in January 2003 as leading to a possible collapse by the Hawks here is as off base as it comes and shows a complete and total lack of knowledge of either situation.

He’d be drinking out of skull.

Actually the frame of the picture was too close. It cut out Joel Q. He was in the limo as well, wearing another man’s skin and drinking out of shrunken head.

people who have their panties all in a knot over this must’ve never gotten drunk and done something stupid in their entire lives.

and i find that hard to believe, even if you are a quaker or a mormon

I’m just glad the pictures didn’t have any TNA, with those girls I’da gouged my eyes out.

Rick Morrisey is the biggest dumbfuck on the Trib staff. He said a while back that Tiger wouldnt win the masters, but tiger raped the field. He also said that North Korea should attack us because of the way President Obama was dressed during the all-star game. This is also coming from a wirter, whose newspaper devotes a whole quarter of a page about the Hawks…….the cubs got more coverage after a hawks win………

The bold font stops here!

let alone the crazy dumb shit Morrissey penned.

Not that I feel dumber because of what you wrote, rather from what it was about.
