CHICAGO -- A team of surgeons has been called in to try to figure out the problem with the net. I think Hugh Laurie has been spotted.

Meanwhile, I went back for some pizza in the media room. My friend, USA Today Sportswriter and food critic, Marlen Garcia, warned me that it was bad, and she's right. It was awful. Now, we're in Chicago (or close enough). To get bad pizza around here, it almost has to be a goal. There needs to be a task force, meetings, etc. to get something like that done. I can't even make bad pizza, and I can't cook anything tougher than Spaghettio's. Maybe it's imported from Canada. Or New York.

Hey! In the time it took me to write that, they fixed the net, the teams went through a couple of minutes of layup lines, and we're ready to restart the game.
