You have a beautiful mid-mod house, my guy.

The story of Paul Patterson, unsung Bears executive from 1967 to 1974 and the team's first full-time Black employee, on Windy City Gridiron. Bear Down!

90s also had Chelios and Savard on the Hawks. Jordan/Thomas/Sosa/Chelios is quite a set.

The closest I can come is the mid-80s you had Payton/Jordan/Dawson/Fisk and in the '90s Jordan/Thomas/Sosa. But Payton didn't really line up with Jordan necessarily and the overlap with baseball superstars was brief.

A discussion on that other app with @bpopetv.bsky.social made me want to bring it over here with @readjack.bsky.social. If the Bulls somehow landed Giannis, would that be the Chicago sports ever had it
Bears - Williams
Cubs - PCA
Blackhawks - Bedard
White Sox - Montgomery
Bulls - Giannis
Sky - Reese

I understand this joke, but I'm 6'1" (6'2" according to Spencer's height chart) and I fit just fine.

I owned a 500 Abarth and I support this 110 percent. They are riotously fun and funny. Would be a great race car. Overall, the reliability of mine wasn't all that bad. Never ceased to put a smile on my face. It's a car that doesn't take itself seriously. And it doesn't go fast enough to kill you.

I like to say "THE FIT IS GO" every time.

That's really gross. This is some prosperity gospel shill, I'm guessing?

Notre Dame: “look it’s really hard to win a national championship in 21st century college football”

Indiana (rollerskating backwards): “it’s not that hard”

The first part is why it's a funny joke. Glad it landed with you.

Indiana University has won a college football national championship and a Heisman Trophy more recently than Notre Dame. #IU

A lot of fun was had now and there's a lot of promise to deliver on going forward. The Bears for certain have their capital Q Quarterback.

WCGSL returns next season. Thank you all so much for hanging out with me and @samhouseholder.bsky.social, and with the rest of the WCG crew. Bear Down, y'all.

I knew it had to be close but I didn’t know it was that bad. Jay only had 1 win? Woof.

That’s a good way of looking at it but the offense has blown every chance they’ve had.

The Bears have run out of luck, mojo, 9 lives, whatever you want to call it. Brutal.

At least if you go down blitzing, it’s like “at least your tried something.” If you continue to just let Love sit back and pick you apart and have CBs and LBs flailing desperately at the Packers receivers, well we already know what that looks like. #DaBears

Defense has no answers. Offense can’t get out of their own way and are playing desperate already. Bad mix. #DaBears

That effort showed by Stevenson on Love’s scramble is exactly why he isn’t playing more, @sjsillini.bsky.social

So glad someone else said this. Also the uniform matchup took me until the 2nd quarter to figure out which one was which when I glanced up at the TV.
