1. His heart must be breaking, though

About his Bulls. Best team in the NBA this year, and then Derrick Rose goes down. So sad.

[neurochaos]

7. The Bulls; the best team in the NBA?

LOL, what are you on?

As long as Lebron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh are on the Miami Heat, that will be the best team in the NBA. Rose or no Rose, the Bulls can't beat the Heat in a 7 game playoff series going up against that trio.

8. W-L

Chicago 50-16
Miami 46-20

9. Funny how the Bulls had a better record than did the Heat last year...

and exactly what happened in the Eastern Conference Finals... with a healthy Derrick Rose?

6. How dare Pres O

10. Not that I think ball-handling skills make

for great presidents, but can anyone imagine Rmoney tossing around a basketball? He wouldn't know which end of the ball is up.

11. Pics #5 and #6 are just begging for a caption. n/t

12. What never ceases to hearten me is just how

comfortable our President looks in every setting. He knows how to connect with everyone he meets.

Mitt can't even look comfortable in a staged photo-op, unless perhaps when he knows that everyone around him is at least a millionnaire++++.
