I’ll bet no one saw anything like this coming. Usually these public/private partnerships are great for both parties and a real positive for the surrounding community.

A suburban stadium that turns into a financial boondoggle for the municipality that encouraged a pro sports team to locate outside its major market?

God, that stupid team. Long live Candlestick.

The product has dropped severely in quality over the years, but I’d day this is one of the main reasons

My month old hot take:

I thought NFL broadcasts don’t bother to show the national anthem in favor of the studio pregame chuckling blowhards continuing to chuckle and blow hard until they throw it to the local feed just before kickoff. Am I wrong? I ask because I don’t watch anymore, due to the NFL’s CTE denial schemes, Goodell playing idiot…

*Game 5 (the final game)

I realized earlier the only thing worse than the Cubs winning the series is Cleveland holding two titles so

As a lifelong Cubs fan, the part of me that’s transitioning into an early curmudgeon stage says the same. It’s like, come on, we KNOW better than to expect good things. I think that’s why I’m taking this loss with less despair than my friends have expected. “Forget it, Jake — it’s Wrigleyville.”

Never feel bad

Wow I really was getting ready for Cubs fans to act like assholes all year because they won. Now I almost (not quite but almost) feel bad that I will spend all year being the asshole by reminding them that my team won it’s World Series.

Paying tens of thousands of dollars to watch the Cubs lose 7-2 at home to the Cleveland Indians in the World Series is the ultimate Cubs fan experience. It could only be improved by becoming the new Bartman. Or possibly if you were there with your 95-year-old grandpa and he got trampled to death by drunk bros in…

I personally cannot wait for Chicago to not win this

Those fans look pretty dejected. They are Cubs fans, you think they’d be used to losing.

I like that they used the live version. I honestly thought the screaming at the beginning of the video was people on the plane.

Some people actually jumped off the wing into the Hudson to attempt to get their checked bags out from under the plane.

Seconded. When I travel, the handbag I take is very small, kept at my feet, and full of the more critical things I tend to travel with such as wallet, documents, phone, and keys. It takes zero time to grab it and is nowhere close to large enough to obstruct anyone so yeah, in an emergency, I WOULD take it.

The guy has the wherewithal to film in landscape, in a life threatening situation, and it gets posted in vertical.

I would like to proceed with getting all this boring crap I have to do done as quickly as possible, so I can get to the relaxing and fun part of my day. Would you kinda proceed to get the hell out of my way good sir / madam?

I want to tell her to calm down but then I think about the seething existential rage I experience at people that walk three wide in hallways and amble, or left lane hogs, or people that take too long to use the sugar/cream station at Starbucks, or people that forgot the form at the Post Office, or try and get on the…
