Q101.1’s Alex Quigley is a big Bears and Cubs fan, so forgive him his perpetual disappointment. Listen to him from 3 to 6 p.m. weekdays.

What are you gonna call this new version of the Bulls?
Vickie.
“Miller Light”: Pay’s great, less fulfilling.
Bullistic: They’ve become overwrought or irrational.
Bulls — Beta (version 0.67853c) @iphoneappsin140
Derrick and the Jordanaires.
How well will Orlando’s Dwight Howard do on the dunk-o-meter against the Bulls?
So well that time will stop and the dunk-o-meter will turn into the Shawon-o-meter.
I expect Dominique Wilkins-caliber highlights, and Pam Anderson-caliber celebratory chest-bumps.
Not well. Even Dwight Howard can’t Superman that Jo.
Give him a 4. It isn’t hard to dunk on the Bulls since ’98. @salaminizer
It won’t matter. He’ll be shown up by a dude who’s 14 inches shorter wearing green shoes. Again.
We need a shorter, easier way to refer to Jeff Samardzija. What should it be?
Vickie.
“Dzj.” Rolls right off the tongue.
Boo J. A wide receiver from Notre Dame? Joke’s on “Boo.”
Mr. Mxyzptlk @rcpatterson
In honor of “WALL-E’s” award at Sunday’s Oscars, I say MARD-Z. Flows well.
What are you hoping the Blackhawks do before the NHL trade deadline?
Keep Khabi, the nucleus but still make a deal for a veteran forward.
Bow down to Ovechkin’s greatness. That’s right: bandwagon Capitals fan, here.
Revive the streak but the Blackhawks aren’t that buff.
Find another center, and maybe clone Duncan Keith. Mostly, keep it awesome. @ChiBlackhawks

Who should be on bubble watch in college basketball?
Jerry Wainwright.
Notre Dame Fighting Irish. Specifically, they should listen for a distinct popping sound.
I’d love to say UF, but we’ve already blown the bubble.
Northwestern. Oh, wait. That bubble popped last night. @sizzlemaker
Bourbon and hookers. (I was told you’re supposed to say this on your first day.)
