Some cities have none of that. You discredit 11 championships as if other cities have that as well. In my lifetime as a Chicago sports fan I’ve seen 12 championships in 41 years. That’s pretty darn good for a city.  I do consider myself lucky.

This guy is just like me except I don’t have any friends. Like any friends at all. Also, I don’t actually communicate my insider knowledge to anyone. I do have massive scoops though. I didn’t tell anyone but I totally knew Holly Holmes was going to beat Ronda Rousey. I watched the weigh in and I just knew. Also, this…

Funny story.  So I grew up a Cubs fan living on the North side and have been to a few games at Wrigley through the years.  A day after the Cubs won I suffered an aneurysm.  I had a cluster of veins burst.  I was really lucky because it drained out from a ventricle which is the brains natural way to flush things out…

I never understood the binary thinking on this.  Why not both?  Sometimes you like this.  Other times you like that.  I sometimes like pineapple on my pizza.  Other times I like pepperoni.  Other times I like a ton of veggies.  The list goes on and on.  I had potato on my pizza once and it tasted really good.  Why…

I love the Bears and as a Chicago native I’ve rooted for them for close to four decades now. Overall I feel lucky. I was just a kid but I remember them winning a Super Bowl and though they haven’t been able to repeat it they’ve had a few good years to soften the many bad ones. Other fans aren’t so lucky. My…

Here you go.  Science!  You are welcome.

Part of playing the game is playing the game both on and off the field.  Not saying it’s right or I agree with it but none the less it’s reality.

I’m just happy Avatar is on.  I love that series so very much.  I have watched it from start to finish 3 times and I have watched individual episodes a dozen times.  The Tales of Ba Sing Se is the best animated episode of anything of all time.  I will say you need to do the legwork leading up to it for it to carry as…

It’s long been a mystery to me why I never played in college. I haven’t ever figured out why scouts weren’t banging down my door. At 5'8" and 145 lbs I was perfectly built for the inside LB position. Imposing. As for tackling, it’s not like players were given an option. Coaches would ream players out if they tried any…

So my only experience playing was at the high school level (You probably have heard of me. I scored 4 TDs in one game.) but proper tackling technique is to put your shoulder on the ball carrier and wrap up their legs with your arms. Though ideal that only happens a fraction of the time as ball carriers are trying hard…

As a white, straight, cis-gender male I just want to know which month is White, Straight, Cis-gender Male History Month?  I know we all learn about guys like me but can’t we have a month really dedicated to learning even more about us?  All kidding aside I really worry about humanity.  I know there is still good in…

Love of the game. They should be playing a kid’s game for free. Freedom isn’t free. Show respect. Rub some dirt on it and get back out there. It’d be a whole lot safer if they didn’t wear helmets and pads.  Should be happy with what they already are getting. Bad role models. They should prove it first. What about the…

My wife would take our daughter and tell me to go fuck myself if I was in that position of power and had that much control and chose to do nothing after she told me about it. To be fair my wife makes a great living so she would have no concern about supporting herself but I know she would tell me I’m not the…

My wife would take our daughter and tell me to go fuck myself if I was in that position of power and had that much control and chose to do nothing.  To be fair my wife makes a great living so she would have no concern about supporting herself but I know she would tell me I’m not the person she thought I was and she…

As a Bear’s fan the fact they lost to this team has always made me apologetic to all other fan bases. Sorry everyone that we allowed Manning to win his first ring. I sometimes ponder an alternate universe where Tommie Harris didn’t get injured and that his presence would have won that game or possibly even Kyle Orton…

If only a knight in shining white armor could ride in and make America great again.  Where is the savior for regular white guys like me?  Pete Rose is just yet another example of a white male being run over by “Facts” just because he’s saying what we all are thinking.

As an old man I remember when America was a shining city on a hill rather than this rainbow, multi-lettered, veteran hating, ribbons for everyone town in a valley. If only someone could speak for me, a regular white guy with several failed marriages and bankruptcies who likes to assert my will on others, and make…

I would add that the dwindling fan base needs to change their thinking as well.  As a life long Bears fan I remember reading a comment from a fan that they will never forget or forgive that Kyle Fuller would accept an offer from the Packers.  This idea that a rivalry that most people don’t even care about anymore…

So many people sacrificing and dying so that people back home can lose freedoms.  Freedom isn’t free nor is it allowed.

To be fair brick and mortar stores are suffering because of online sales.  People really are voting with their dollars and buying elsewhere.
