NBC Chicago digital news guy. Lots of Cubs, Arsenal and college football posts incoming.
I'm not sure how many times we need to go through the "this public transit/light rail/pedestrian project will ruin by business"-to-"this is freaking awesome" process until it finally gets through.

I'm a realist and know that rooting for just about any pro sports franchise comes with a certain degree of "you're supporting jerks," but this Cubs stuff does nothing to dampen my desire to consume more minor league and independent baseball.

Hey man. That cash to keep Kalani Sitake at BYU didn't come from thin air.

I'm still finishing up William Manchester's biography of Douglas MacArthur, so that seems like a logical follow-up!

So I hit 40 this year, and I've been reading WWII history books nonstop. I think we're hitting appropriate milestones in our age.

It's frequently the same story: "We're in on this guy. Once the price gets to a certain point, we bow out." That's not how market value works in baseball.

Brett's take is way more nuanced and wide-ranging than mine, but my point remains the same: I'm tired of this "gee golly, we sure tried" routine.

I think MAYBE you can argue the Bears were a bit too cavalier with the clock and put themselves in a spot to have to try a hero play, BUT that play was well-designed and Caleb didn't execute it.

This is UC Davis' last run as an FCS school right?
