After a dismal 4-10 start, the Bulls fired head coach Bill Cartwright today. Since Cartwright took over for Tim Floyd in 2001, the Bull's record is 51-100 -- and you thought the Bears were bad. (They won this weekend, by the way.)
In other news, the Fire lost the MLS championship to the San Jose Earthquakes 4-2.
