August 14, 2020: The Hate Files XLVII

posted in: Bears, Blackhawks, Bulls, Cubs, White Sox | 0

Well, when it rains it pours… as far as things to talk about when it comes to Chicago sports. After going through a drought due to COVID, now it’s hot and heavy. I wanted to talk about the Blackhawks Game 2 loss. I wanted to talk about the Cubs, the best team in baseball. I wanted to talk about the White Sox… no I didn’t. But when I got the text early this morning, I knew what time it was. Jim Boylen, welcome to your Hate File.

As with pretty much every ex-Chicago person that receives their very own entry, I didn’t start off hating you. I hated that the Bulls got rid of Thibs; I still can’t get over that. I hated the guy that replaced him; Fredberg has his very own folder as well. When you were named to take over for Hoiberg, I was fine; in fact, I would have been fine if they named the Water Cooler as head coach… anybody but Hoiberg. As it turns out, the Bulls would have been better off giving Mr. Cooler a chance…

I wanted you to do well… I wished you well… I didn’t hate you from the jump… I wanted to give you a chance. This is all true. You weren’t that great at first impressions though, with the team threatening a mutiny after working them into the ground. Look, I don’t mind work; I already said I loved Thibs. Were the players being too soft? I didn’t know; I still held my judgment. One thing that pissed me off, and it wasn’t really even your fault, was that the Bulls signed you to an extension after your glorious 17-41 start to your coaching career; wtf?!?! Like I said, wasn’t your fault, but extending this unproven guy was an asinine move. I hate to say I told you so.

The following year came and… slowly but surely, you wore your welcome out. Lots of people had already arrived at this conclusion; I was finally there. My biggest problem was that you appeared to make the talent on our team worse; yes, that is possible. Yeah, I’m blaming you for Lauri’s step backwards. Telling Coby to stop shooting mid range jumpers, one of his strengths; was that true? Running possibly the worst offense ever; that’s on you too, right? Not to mention the losses that started piling up… I really thought this team had talent; there was no way possible our record should have been 22-43 before COVID hit… no fricking way. So if you’re negatively impacting our team and subsequently our record, having the water cooler as coach, which essentially means no coach at all, would have actually been better. Yeah, you got to go…

Once GarPax were finally no more, and Artie came in, I just knew your days were numbered; there was no way in hell that this smart basketball mind would keep you, right? Well, changes were made… all good ones… the end result seemed inevitable, yet it’s almost like a “timeout” was called by AK. Maybe this was a teaching moment, done for you to gain some sort of experience, to better yourself, from this foregone conclusion. Does that sound familiar Jim? Do you see how stupid it was? Pissed me the hell off… But thankfully this timeout didn’t result in a loss for the Bulls, because relieving you of your duties is a huge win for the franchise.

I can’t say I’ll miss you, or your post-game interviews that were oh so educational. No, at this very moment, now, after this latest and greatest move… OK, breaking up GarPax was pretty cool too… but only now, do I have complete trust in Artie and in the future direction of this franchise, and that makes me very happy. It makes me very happy that we don’t have to deal with a coach that will slowly either ruin the young talent on this team or run them out of town. No… thankfully we can move forward freely, without our ankle weight; it will be amazing how much better we will play without it. How am I so sure? It’s because you were that bad Jimmy boy. So take this souvenir, this special Hate File designed exclusively for you, and hang it on your fridge. You can admire it, from your couch, where maybe, just maybe, you’ll get a virtual coaching assistant job with the Flint Tropics… bye bye Jimmy.
