i’ll add, watching the city shine in the primetime lights, the skyline in the background, feeling the electric energy of the city, i really can’t imagine the bears anywhere but soldier field. huge aura loss if they take their ball to hammond or arlington heights.
Pretty excellent Illinois sports day. As a life long Cardinals happy to see Sox turn a big corner and Bears win. Noticed the Leo Luck invoked during the Bear game, but we are still guessin’ he was a football Cardinals fan in those days.

It seemed that every eephus floater he threw up there found a friendly pair of hands.
That’s a good point Bob Adams. I’ll bet when I asked AI the odds, it did not know the playoff teams and that very low World Series percentage is its continuous past thinking

Lurker - Hard to believe Super Intelligence didn’t know who the playoff teams would be. That’s not super at all.

The Sox being in the playoffs is a miracle. The Cubs being in the playoffs was pretty much expected at the start of the year.
Per today’s music selection: it’s sometimes fun to go to the live tapes and compare them to the sweetened up overdubbed Europe 72 version.

Swift’s last run cost me a fantasy football matchup. Darn the luck (exclamation point).
