well, there are many other, more religious/philosophical reasons that i could think of...
such as, in India, the bull is considered to be holy, indeed a god.
In egyptian mythology, the Bull was the incarnation of Ra
A bull is the largest of the livestock, of which sheep and goats are members(christian reference)
i am sure there are more, but that is what came off the top of my head...i would much rather think it was one of these, than that it was a reference to the Chicago bulls...
okay look they make mistakes in movies, that is inevitable. No matter how hard an editor tries, mistakes will make their way into movies. Yes it was a mistake, b/c the backgrounds were all CG. The same thing in M1 when the bomb drops to the bottom floor, and we see the fire in slow motion or bullet time or whatever, the columns are back to normal, and all the dead swat are gone. Of course I didn't notice it until someone else pointed it out to me. most of the time the moviemakers know where your attention is focused, and leave some of the background elements out to save time and money and whatever else. So in a way its good for us, in that it doesn't take forever for the movie to come out and bad for us at the same time especially when you do notice it and it takes away from the full effect sometimes, but like i said if your attention is focused where the moviemakers intended, then you don't lose too much.
I was talking about the scene in M1 when Trin and Neo send the elevator with the bomb on it to the first floor while the "fly" up to the top. When the bomb explodes, blowing the elevator door off, everything becomes slow motion, and then you can see that all the columns that were just shattered moments before are back to normal, and there are no dead people laying anywhere. That's the scene I'm talking about.

Or maybe the Matrix just cleaned it up so anyone walking into the building wouldn't find the lobby in ruins and dead people everywhere.

if you watch the lobby shootout again, all of the fighting and shooting were done on the left and right sides of the lobby. when the bomb drops and the fire "runs" out of the elevator, pay attention to the left and right side of the screen, there is clearly rubble and who's to say that the bodies were not merely blocked out by the columns... i think this is only visible in the widescreen format of the film. however, there is definitely one body missing, the one neo killed last... right in front of the elevator doors... unless he was engulfed by the flames before one could notice.
