Chicago Bulls or the Chicago bulls
Please consider the following sentence:
Los Angeles Times -- When Jordan came out of retirement the first time, in 1995, he made a lot of people happy,
namely the Chicago Bulls and their fans and the Chicago White Sox minor league hitting instructors.
My question is this:
Why is it "the Chicago Bulls" and not just "Chicago Bulls" since their official name is "Chicago Bulls"?
Thank you.
