Chicago is the best sports city of 2010

[Straight Shooter]

I can't argue with the Sporting news. With the Blackhawks being the Champs, the Bulls making some big signings, and the Bears also making some big time signings it's true that we are the best sports town of 2010.

Funny, they left the Sox and Cubbies out of the picture. I guess you don't have to claim all of your teams...

It's not a team by team thing. They looked at the overall sports landscape of Chicago. The Sox weren't exactly horrible when you really think about it, I mean last year they finished with 79 wins and this year they had 88 wins. The Fire had a good year also as they made the playoffs. The Bulls also made the playoffs. Northwestern had a good year and even played in a bowl game.

Nope. Denver. We don't need big signings......this town is Broncos crazy, Rockies crazy, Nuggets crazy, and Avalanche crazy.......best fans in the country.

Toronto is 44!!! Better than what I expected. Well, the Jays had 85 wins this season, the Leafs are undefeated 2-0, and the Raptors are a young and exciting team! I say we climb those charts very soon!

The Bulls only big signing was Boozer, who is already hurt

Cubs and Sox are mentioned in the actual magazine I believe

It seems there isn't that many strong contenders this year for the title.
