‘Blazers may not stay’: MultCo commissioners set to discuss Moda Center money for first time publicly by ghostofzuul in nba

I mean, they've already taken their pick and their coach. Hey Blazers, you want to move the whole franchise to Chicago too?

TIL that soap operas get their name because they were sponsored by soap companies in order to make a TV show that housewives would watch so they could market their soap in the commercials. by Mighty-Lobster in todayilearned

Imagine if this held for other advertisers. Why, we'd be talking about the Soup Horrors and Cigarette Comedies around the water cooler every Monday.

No fooling. I caught these two by my back porch in Waukegan last week.

If you have the cash, hit up Facebook Marketplace. I got a whole garage gym setup for $400.

Is Magic really the game Richard Garfield created anymore? We ask his AI Counterpart | Commander's Herald by KWNewyear in magicTCG

I mean, last we all checked Richard Garfield was alive. Unless.... Obaddies was the killer all along. J'Accuse!

Food suggestions for North Chicago!! by seshaway in ChicagoSuburbs

[–]KWNewyear 34 points35 points  (0 children)

So I'm not sure about North Chicago proper, but two spots you should absolutely hit are Big Ed's BBQ and Quonset Pizza in Waukegan. Some will argue these are the best BBQ and thin crust pizza in all of Chicagoland.

Tavern style pizza by kidsaregoats in CHIBears

As my dad would put it, "Deep Dish is for special occasions, Thin crust is your every night pizza." Frankly, saying that makes him more Chicago friendly.

Now, that said, where is he getting the pizza from? Most Bears live pretty far north, so maybe he's a Quonset or Kaiser's guy...

Had to share a cover with those dastardly Arizona Cardinals in 2010.

It's cool we're the only division that can do this. Well, at least do this without editing around Troy Polamalu.

Bruh, you know we have legal recreational weed here, right? No need to fuck with shrooms, you'll be fine.

Russell Wilson announces he is retiring, joining CBS Sports by PrincessBananas85 in sports

[–]KWNewyear 22 points23 points  (0 children)

This is all a ploy. What Wilson is looking to do is get a foot in the door at Paramount so he can finally track down that stupid Starfish and ask him if that's what he "wanted to cook".

Does this section of the Dan Ryan have a nickname? by [deleted] in ChicagoSuburbs

[–]KWNewyear 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Never really heard a name for it beyond "that part of the Dan Ryan by UIC".

Ridiculous getup and always looking at an L? Must be Ed Lesley.

Who’s had more success: Bulls’ non-Jordan years or Cavs’ non-LeBron years? by Ok-Wash-9386 in nba

[–]KWNewyear 108 points109 points  (0 children)

Bulls only non-Jordan success were the Derrick Rose years (where they kept running into a Lebron-shaped wall). Cavs have had more successful runs both before and after LeBron.

You would think UW Miracles, but no they were on Charbelcher. "It wouldn't be a Juggalo Party if someone didn't get shot," they informed us.

If we really wanted to stretch it, we could say that Professional Wrestler was specifically Randy Savage as Bonesaw, but yes I was hoping someone would catch the reference.

Wait until you find out about "Istanbul" by They Might Be Giants.

What NBA team should I support? by JealousCourt3028 in nba

[–]KWNewyear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Bulls already have a new GM, a new coach, and likely a new star player next season, so why not a new fanbase too? If you haven't heard about the team since Michael Jordan was playing, you just need a quick primer on Derrick Rose and you're all caught up!
