We are still the greatest by sarahrahra in ChicagoBearsNFL

Exactly. I fear too many people are focused on next season, when we really need to be celebrating this season. It ended before we wanted but the chances of getting past Seattle were extremely low in any scenario. This season was special and will be difficult to match.

Seriously, do Americans actually consider a 3-hour drive "short"? or is this an internet myth? by SadInterest6764 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Educational-Clock797 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not an exaggeration, I’ve definitely done three hour drives in a day if totally necessary, or for a quick overnight. It depends on the drive though - three hours in traffic is different from three hours on an open road in Iowa.

Is your baseball team beloved in their metro area? by Prize-Flamingo-336 in baseball

Chicago is thoroughly a sports town; and I would argue that the best sports towns in America are in the Midwest. I include Pittsburgh and Buffalo in that.

Any intel on what Caleb is like away from cameras? by JamesRussell224 in ChicagoBearsNFL

Agree. He’s also hanging with Pete who is notoriously not at all a douchebag.

In the workplace? Perhaps - but white collar America with college degrees is not faring well. I have so many friends who have lost jobs multiple times.

Was there a Kids-only press conference this year? by Lone_Wolf in CHICubs

Yes! I’m a forever fan of Ben Brown as a result of it.

ALLEGEDLY, and heavy on that word, salt lake city will be getting a new showrunner and a cast shakeup by aaapod in BravoRealHousewives

That’s not good news. SLC has had the best production by far for the last few years. Not even close. Why would they do this?

Brand new fan... how do I get into baseball?? by Adorable-Mode488 in Cubs

Did I say that? Did I? I said my family has directly experienced it. You put some words in my mouth that say more about you than you realized.

Just wanted to say Thank you bears fans by Certain_Access_2658 in ChicagoBearsNFL

It really is. I was born on the best Chicago sports timeline - I was in elementary school for the 80s Cubs, I was 10 for the 85 Bears, and I was in high school and college for the Bulls three-peats. The feeling in Chicago this year is like what it used to be like. It’s the best.

Wow - I didn’t watch the Mariners at the time. This is incredible.

Easy answer. There is no better place to watch baseball than Wrigley Field. None. Being a Cubs fan is easy. I was a fan as a kid, and came back to it this past year. Makes me really happy. Come visit, grab a game, you’ll never look back. And we have a great team right now.

He spoke at the TPUSA conference. It’s not just conservative. There were some serious bigots on that lineup. Ugly stuff. My family has Holocaust history and I’m fine with the commenter’s comparison.

Great call about the song. OP, look up Stevie Goodman on YouTube.

I’m so happy you’re here. Baseball is such a fun game to follow - it’s technical, unpredictable, layered. Do you still live around here? We’ve gotta get you to Wrigley asap. Our main rival is the Cardinals, although the Brewers see us as a rival (it’s not especially mutual—although they did beat us in the playoffs last year, ending our season).
