No, it wasn't on the air, silly...
If was off the air after Gill got into a rather-heated discussion with B1G Ten Network analyst Tim Doyle over the following observation from last night's Bulls-Nuggets game...
Doyle and Gill went up against a wall and drew blood in front of Chicago Business Report reporter Danny Ecker- who was an eyewitness and wrote all about it.
Gill has been temporarily removed from the show, "Sports Talk Live," until everything is examined in due course.
"We're looking further into the incident that took place in our newsroom earlier today," said CSN Chicago news director Kevin Cross in a statement. "Until the investigation is complete, Kendall Gill will not be appearing on our air."

ICYMI: Rondo vs. Humphries: Basketbrawl (UPDATED)
You know, basketball players don't fight much better than baseball players and we are about to link to some video that will show you why.
Wednesday night in the New Jersey vs. Boston game, things got a bit--Chippy-- when Nets forward Kris Humphries (yes, Mr. Kardashian) pushed Celtics center Kevin Garnett down. As soon as that happened 6-1 point guard Rajon Rondo jumped in to defend Garnett's honor.
And the melee ensued.
There really isn't much else to say other than Nets guard Gerald Wallace got involved too. All three primary participants got multiple technical fouls and were asked to leave the game. And we are pretty sure there will be some significant fines involved too, but they haven't been levied yet.
In the meantime, enjoy your Basketbrawl:
PM UPDATE: From the NBA its own self...
Rajon Rondo of the Boston Celtics has been suspended two games without pay for fighting with Brooklyn’s Kris Humphries during the second quarter of the Nets’ 95-83 victory over the Celtics at TD Garden on Wednesday, Nov. 28. Additionally, Brooklyn's Gerald Wallace has been fined $35,000 and Boston’s Kevin Garnett has been fined $25,000 for escalating the altercation. The penalties were announced today by Stu Jackson, NBA Executive Vice President, Basketball Operations.
Rondo will serve his suspension on Friday, Nov. 30 when the Celtics host the Portland Trail Blazers and Saturday, Dec. 1 when the Celtics play the Milwaukee Bucks at BMO Harris Bradley Center.
