‘Bear Down’: How a songwriter’s challenge became Chicago’s rallying cry Chicago’s favorite fight song, “Bear Down,” began as bet among songwriters. It ended up being a city’s rallying cry.

Chris, you make the show. The best in the business. Radio is hard to produce - you are masterful. Full Ride is boring without you.

Cubism fascinates me. I can spend 10 minutes or more in front of a Braque or Picasso cubist piece finding discoveries.

I have put off a vacation in Chicago for 2 years....waiting for the re-opening to view @svengoolieofficial.bsky.social set! I hope the Svengoolie store is open there too!

In LA for the game! You have to visit Westwood and UCLA campus. I can't believe UCLA is not #1 in recruiting every year.....who wouldn't want to spend their college days on that magnificent campus with ocean breezes?

@danieljtgallen.bsky.social Nice article on Drew Allar's take on his performance. 3 years in as starter and does not seem to be easy yet. And of course, Beau Pribula's Heisman like performances at Mizzou probably adds some pressure. Beau is a super star!

Daniel, you have some pull there - get an intern on it right now!

@danieljtgallen.bsky.social do you have a printable one page depth chart for PSU? I sent to 247 site and chat boards but did not see one?

Great article. Analysis spot on

Thanks Daniel - so it really (Really!) is a day to day battle all summer for QB2? How did Alanzo Ford look - - fully recovered from injury....moving well????

My wife and I finally visited Tulsa (first time ever in Oklahoma) and we walked the whole city. Came for the @bobdylancenter.bsky.social (marvelous!) and stayed for all the Arts Deco architecture and the city's amazing gardens. The food was terrific too. Put Tulsa on your vacation list.

Can he try any harder to LOSE every farmer vote from California (Migrant losses) to the Midwest (Corn farmers who supply stock for Coke Corn Syrup)? I don't know how a farmer could ever support this guy again.

And now I have the Cornell Alma Mater (High Above Cayuga's Water") running through my head!

HA! I own that album!! Bought it in 1976! I listen to it a lot during football season!!

AGREED! I remember this cover. I cut it out this Johnny Bench figure for 5th grade collage poster school project. Thanks for posting it. Brings back such memories.

When I first saw this interview, I thought Trump's response was strange. Now I see it as totally revealing. Elon Knows. And Swan is a GREAT interviewer - this is how Trump should be interviewed by everyone.

Column: Reunion weekend offers relief to die-hard Chicago White Sox fans tired of rebuilds A reunion of the 2005 World Series champions and a statue dedication for Mark Buehrle gave die-hard Chicago White Sox fans a chance to forget their current woes.

How is it possible that Army-Navy is not #1. The traditions and emotions of that game are beyond all other rivalries. Havard-Yale should be higher too.

I love the reference to Three Finger Brown (the greatest all time Cubs Pitcher IMO)

Now I have to out and get them!

Thanks. By the way, my favorite parts of the shows are your homages to Floyd "The Barber" or the "Stooges". The songs too. Very creative. Very witty. Very must see TV. I love to visit Chicago - there must be a Sven "museum" one can visit?

@svengoolieofficial.bsky.social Love your show - watch every week. Can you show EQUINOX (1970)? I remember as a kid seeing those commercials for it as a kid and was fascinated. My parents would not take me to it since I was only 10.

What is the flavor? That looks too good (I always default to the butter pecan when I get back to campus) and I want to try it (coming home for the White Out game).

Well done and informative. Wow, MD is so important to PSU recruiting. Wish NJ was more dark blue too.

Will Trump now sell that Tesla he said he was going to buy during the "White House" Tesla commercial?

Greatest ever!

Never heard of those albums....but I am sure that Blood on the Tracks is better than Desire (or any other album ever made after 1959 - year of Time Out and Kind of Blue).

Good article. And agree that Narduzzi leverages the lack of "The Game" for attention. But I also want PennSt and Pitt to play every year, as the last game of the season. Pitt really is our biggest Rival. Perhaps our only Rival. I miss the rivalry.

"The Way" is an amazing hiking movie too!
