    Brian Hanley notes Jim Boylan's sadness:
    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Chris Duhon did not play Sunday, a victim of the backcourt crowd.

    ''It's unfortunate; I feel bad for Du,'' Boylan said. ''I said that after the game to our guys, just not enough minutes to go around.''</div>

    Heh.

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>NOTE: Drew Gooden and Larry Hughes both have worn headbands during their careers, but they will have to adhere to the Bulls' no-headband rule (to which Ben Wallace had received an exception).</div>

    Double heh.

    The lack of headbands was noticable. I think I commented on it in the game thread.

    How about Du? He goes from starter to DNP in 2 games.

    I guess Kirk earned his starting job back.

    No headband rule is beyond stupid. What purpose does it serve?

    I think a few seasons back, Eddie Robinson used to wear his headband around the neck, and some people were wearing it crooked so they decided to eliminate the headband in Chicago.

    That is the stupidest ****ing rule ever, I thought they got rid of it. I didn't know they made an exception for Ben.

    The fact that they made an exception for Wallace makes that even more idiotic rule.

    What was idiotic is the Bulls signed Wallace, then handed out Ben Wallace bobblehead dolls that had headbands on.

    There was plenty of idiocy to go around. Van Lier was still ripping on them on the radio
