Mr. Trubisky goes to Orlando

Thursday, Jan 24

Don't worry, Mitch Trubisky. Time shall heal your broken football heart. The Bears QB of course is still stung by his team's playoff loss several weeks ago, though soaking up the sun and stardom of the Pro Bowl is a decent consolation prize. Even if it took him awhile to believe that coach Matt Nagy wasn't trolling him. In addition to the skills competitions, Trubisky held court on all things beard and the end of his social media blackout. The Bears teammates with him in Orlando are cutting loose, too, though they seemed pretty serious about winning at dodgeball — all while Brian Urlacher was a dunk tank target. Brad Biggs is awash in your questions — some of which still center on Cody Parkey — which he tackles in his mailbag. Brad also rolled out the third installment in an 11-part roster review. This edition: offensive line. And if you missed it, Colleen Kane and Dan Wiederer discussed all the Pro Bowl sights and sounds on Facebook Live.

One of these teams ...

… is not like the other. Well, both the Bulls and Hawks are rebuilding, but Atlanta at times looked like it was toying with its hosts in a blowout win Wednesday. Kris Dunn had more to say about the Bulls' defense — sort of.

Pickup sticks

Swearing is bad, kids. Don't do it. Unless you're a Blackhawks player. Then you can write anything from curse words to happy thoughts on your hockey sticks as a form of motivation.

Head scratcher

We're all waiting for Manny Machado to sign somewhere. What's taking so long? White Sox manager Rick Renteria can't figure it out, either, but he and the South Siders are keeping busy in the community.

Sweet meat pies!

Macaulay Culkin was great in "Home Alone," but the thought of him in "Rookie of the Year"? No thanks. Thomas Ian Nicholas will always be Henry Rowengartner, even if Fox films a remake — without the Cubs.

Got 'em again

Illinois lost to Wisconsin on Wednesday — the 14th straight time the Illini have fallen to the Badgers. Ouch. Depending on your perspective, the losses by Loyola and DePaul were just as painful.
