Anyone notice?

In this Bulls playoff run (Yeah I know, they lost tonight to the Pistons) has anyone else in the city noticed there isn't as much hype for them as they deserve? I think I know why. We're all still feeling true sorrow from the Superbowl dismantling of an ever so promising Chicago Bear team. We all have a "Sports Happiness" disorder now in which we cant commit to a team until they are the utter brink of winning. We all remember the joys of that Super Bowl Sunday. Everyone thought the Big City of Chicago would put a good beating on that little distant cousin of a city Indianapolis Colts' team. Everyone, seriously everyone, thought that if the Bears could just come through with a special teams big play the game would be in the bag. What happened, FIRST PLAY BAM! Devin Hester runs back the kickoff for a Touchdown. The City was shaking from hundreds of thousands cheering. Then we all know what happened in the following 59 minutes of the game. The Bears got the there asses handed to them. Chicago was cut deep that night and is still bleeding a little to this day. I don't think it will last for any extended time in this very tough city, but it is here this year. It will take another football season. As long as the Bears don't go to and loose the Superbowl again the wound should scab up and heal. As for the Bulls, there are outta luck as far as timing is concerned. They are however, a very underestimated team who by sweeping the Heat have exceeded any and all expectations set upon them. They are young, very quick, and have an amazing Coach in Skiles whose 5 postseason trips in 7 years of coaching speaks for itself. The not so Baby but not grown yet Bulls have there work cut out for them but benefit from no pressure on there shoulders. That may be the reason they loose to the Pistons though :/
