  1. the 2026 Cubs are addicted to being streaky. oh well, i guess thats just the ride they want to take us on
  2. "Iceman" is too ubiquitous a nickname for someone for Caleb to trademark, honestly. I'm fine with him having it as just something we (and Jeff Joniak) call him. I love that he has a nickname that isn't his initials and his number or something. Long have the glory days of real fun nicknames passed. Now the best we can hope for is "Touchdown Tom"
  3. If Rome is healthy, I think he leads in catches. I think Burden leads in yards, and Loveland in Touchdowns. Also I hate those all-white uni's, but hey, we're living in an era where they need as many alternate unis out there as possible so we have to live with them.
  4. Thank god the Cubs actually figured out a way to win that because if they lost the PCA-Cycle-Game I would have given up on the team the rest of the season. (Is that good? Should I do that anyway?)
  5. frankly, i find it offensive the cubs are gonna win this last one with an offensive explosion. at least have the dignity to get swept.
  6. the only thing i can say about this is if the cubs were gonna have one of the absolute worst stretches of baseball i can imagine i'd rather it happen early than late
  7. Of course. I'll believe they're actually moving to Indiana when they actually put a shovel in dirt, not a second earlier. And maybe not even then!
  8. Not to get this to be too political, but it is very funny the GOP is making shoveling hundreds of millions of dollars to a billionaire family (with almost nothing in return!) as a huge political "win" for them
  9. I look forward to getting some sort of strange, obscure cancer from attending a Bears game in an abandoned steel mill
  10. i do have to say i'm impressed at how much bad blood the Bears organization has manufactured over something as silly and inconsequential as building a stadium. They've almost perfectly managed to look as stupid, craven and greedy as possible. Bravo.
  11. 1. I still don’t believe them 2. I don’t care if they move to Hammond. Go. Who cares
  12. Yes “a Jared Verse” any player possibly comparable that the Rams would be interested in, correct
  13. I dont know if we have a Jared Verse on the roster, but if the price was a Verse-esque player, a 1st round pick, a 2nd next year and a 3rd the following year.... I'm considering it for the Bears. It probably immediately puts them in Super Bowl conversation. But it's a risk for a year or two window, no doubt.
  14. 25 years of being Bears fan and the thing that's pissed me off more than the decades of football incompetence and never being able to find a QB or renovating a stadium that was smaller than the one that previously sat there and etc. etc. are these stupid stadium shenanigans. I'm so bored with it. Stop it! I'm bored! Just declare you're building on Arlington Heights. It makes me keep thinking about Brandon Johnson, who I don't really want to think about, or Indiana, which I also don't really ever want to think about! You're pissing me off!
  15. i think the cubs should consider winning, instead of losing
  16. Limitations of numbers is less of a problem than it used to be now that they've relaxed the rules on what numbers you can use. Honestly, I do think they should retire Urlacher's number. He is an all-time great.
  17. I may shell out and go to Lambeau for the first time for that Oct 11th game. horsefeathers it. Let’s roll.
  18. As far as schedules go, I’m as pleased as can be. Starts pretty light (if teams are roughly what they were last year, and they never are) and then gets tougher by the end. we have a tough schedule this year, but I don’t hate the way it’s lined up for us.
  19. The 2026 Cubs unlocked the secret of how to get the baseball gods to shine down on you and it’s to injure as many pitchers as possible. None shall stand when we’re done. Receive our tribute, O Gods!
  20. this team is RIDICULOUS. god. so much has gone wrong with the roster and yet... so much has gone right in the games.
