But the team's best first quarter -- in which they built a 19-point lead -- fizzled quickly, and the Bulls dropped to 0-3 in the preseason with a 96-86 loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Bill Zwecker: “You could tell Madonna and Guy [Ritchie] were through — just by
looking in his eyes,’’ a longtime member of the pop superstar’s team
said Wednesday. “Ever since the end of last year, he’s had a hang-dog,
sad look in his eyes. I just knew they were done.” And after months of strong denials, Madonna’s publicist Liz Rosenberg
