The Bulls are teetering on a Marc Trestman-like experience, aren’t they?
Preseason hype full of postseason dreams. Bad losses. A coach who seems to be over his head and on the verge of losing the locker room. I couldn’t help but think of the parallels as I started writing today’s Bullets — especially after Zach LaVine spoke out in the wake of last night’s loss.
It is amazing that the clean slate that was given to the Bulls to start the year has already been mucked up, while the good vibes that accompanied the clean slate are also a distant memory. It is only November! I guess it’s up to the Bears (uh oh!) to salvage the weekend.
His running style. His personality.

On this date in 2015, Bears chairman George McCaskey presented me this No. 34 Bears jersey in the Soldier Field press box before the final Bears game I covered for the Chicago Tribune. McCaskey said some nice things about me in front of my colleagues. My number in college was 34. pic.twitter.com/LZ6heljMXB
