The Bears made pick

The Cubs nearly let this one get away, I found out after, they won Pitching, man… pitching

So, in short… The Bears want a Billionaire Bailout instead of having a Billionaire minority share owner build the Bears new building Remember that during this process

It should be noted… The University of Pittsburgh and the Pittsburgh Steelers share a building, some facilities, and the greater good of the Three Rivers community is better for it Pat Ryan is building a building for Northwestern University football… after the Bears refused Ryan’s help

When the Billionaire Bears get their windfall, and the Chicago Park District is stuck with the bonds, remember those Chicago legislators when Chicagoans wonder aloud “why are park district programs lacking funding?” Those Ward offices, legislative offices will find it tough sledding

When you tell someone to move on, but their response is “you can’t quit me” Friend, you mocked children who are sexually abused, go bother someone else who thinks it’s funny that children are abused

. @peternickeas.bsky.social knows the score The amount of time and “who all” are negotiating to give the Billionaire Bears a bailout, when state agencies, cities, towns, farmers, schools, hospitals are hurting… But, gotta spend that time on Billionaire Sports Owners wants?

Right now, the priority of state government is giving the Billionaire Bears a handout, while state universities are underfunded, K-12 education is still lacking in too many districts, but making sure the Billionaire Bears “get theirs”?

Caving to the Billionaire Bears is not doing what’s best for the people of Illinois Ask… the Cubs, Blackhawks, and Bulls Otherwise, the phony leaders made that up to say no to… the Cubs, Blackhawks, and Bulls Billionaire Bears… getting a windfall? Stay tuned

You can’t be a proper sports league unless you boo your Commissioner

Pre-Golf, Pre-Draft, “Later Pic Drop” Hope I get that 9 holes in

Reading the comments in the post, it’s not that there are two sides, what there is are the shaping of overarching talking points, in large part because no one really knows what would/could come out of the Senate, but the “Help the Bears” narrative and the positive points to help the Bears are out

I don’t block these folks, I report them, it’s more important that these folks are reported than blocked Make note of this person mocking the sexual abuse of children Make note

When someone mocks victims of child abuse because the trolling isn’t working Make note of a person who mocks sexual abuse as a joke

The fact, *fact*, the Bears are of a thought that they are going to need more windfall handouts to be satisfied with whatever the ILGA and governor have currently on the table… … and that the Senate will likely oblige, doing so as ZERO has changed with the Bears, does Springfield care about IL?

The Cubs and the Bulls/Blackhawks got nowhere near *ANY* handout that the Bears are trying to leverage… … and this ILGA looks like it will oblige Unreal

The Bears Handout Bill is in the Senate and will get amended like “a billion” times, but no money for the Park District from the Bears, this will be solely on Harmon and the Senate… at that point Pritzker will need to decide if signing a Bears Handout Bill is good for Illinois

How does the ILGA and the governor sign a bill to give the Bears a windfall, needlessly, without securing, minimum $300 mil… … from the Bears… … to the Chi Park District? Any Chicago legislator who gives the Bears a monetary windfall without CPD $$$ secured failed Chicago I’ll die on this hill

Point of Information; Russia is making money, again, exporting oil, allowed now by the Trump Regime, Trump choosing a windfall for Russia, and again, Russia “winning”, not America or the world… purposely

A good time to remember the Strait of Hormuz was open, no hostilities, boarding, or interventions… in early February Don’t forget it, and what caused the global economic turmoil, and who, personally, on a “feeling” caused this to happen

Countless times I’ve touted, with amazement, the musical gift @capitolfax.bsky.social has & his willingness to share that with “just the right song” be it daily or the end of the week Restaurant Quality, maybe a HoF next level, share Thanks Rich & @isabelmiller.bsky.social for the hard work

For me? OL, DL, a pass rusher that can cover as an OLB Such glaring needs even I can see it, just hope the Bears address them

Dear Chicago Bears Or-Gan-Eye-Zay-Shun; Tonight is round 1 of the annual draft You had an incredible season last year, I for one enjoyed it immensely Do fans a solid, draft smartly, wisely, & with calculation to build off last year’s success Focus on the product on the field tonight Thanks, OW

The only honesty that the Trump Regime gave to the American people was that Trump never touted anyone in his new regime were “only the best people” If there’s appreciation needed, I appreciate that we, as a country, were not gaslit this time with that phony falsehood

Good morning, MAGA/GOP ran on the idea of affordability, the “Biden Economy”, “who do you trust” on the economy, and “are you better off”, promising Trump was going to make our daily lives better, cheaper, and prosperous How’s that working out, only the uber-wealthy are likely happy Good morning

First? Always read CapFax, they have it covered, especially on this Bears bill If you are a legislator or a legislative leader at this point of the film and you are feeling pressure to deliver for the Bears (your vote, an agreeing, pledging support) especially after nothing has changed in 8 days…

Thru mid 6, it’s been a delight, a real treat

They are in a groove, the starting pitching is spotty, gotta stretch these guys out with better outings, but 8 in a row, “no real complaints”

If you are a legislator or a legislative leader at this point of the film and you are feeling pressure to deliver for the Bears (your vote, an agreeing, pledging support) especially after nothing has changed in 8 days… … don’t look around… *you* … you are the mark the Bears counted on folding

That said, “make your hay”, these are games you need to stack, stack wins now Baseball is a long season, an April win and a September win are indeed different, especially when you may have earned fewer April wins

The Cubs getting the Mets and the Phillies back to back with them both struggling is a prime example that a 162 game season still needs some luck

Ask Minneapolis and the state of Minnesota on the real remorse on the deal they made with, you guessed it, Kevin Warren

The most disappointing thing I’ve seen in the last week is the Bears really owning the day because it seems some can’t *not* pander to an $8 billion dollar monopoly with 0% debt… gotta give them giveaways Cubs, Bulls, Blackhawks, none got all the Bears are getting So disappointing

Hey. Hi. *YOUR* West Coast Baseball menu tonight Every, and any, time you can watch Ohtani throw, it’s must see

Where exactly is the Chicago Park District in all this? “… and I ask for a no vote”

The Bears Deal and each and every amendment make that deal worse and worse The Bears have no leverage except for perceived pride The Bulls/Blackhawks built their building, the Cubs renovations… … the Bears are not any more special than the Cubs, Bulls, or Bears Not one nickel

Do not (I’m absolutely not) celebrate Tucker admitting he’s as fault as much as anyone that pushed MAGA and Trump Do look at Tucker as he is, the crumbling of even the grifters of MAGA realizing they didn’t destroy the fatted calf, they put the republic is real peril by his hand too That’s it

Both… Both can be absolute & true; Tucker Carlson’s mea culpa is a big deal that he admitted it, it’s wow Tucker Carlson’s mea culpa is too little too late and Tucker Carlson is one who made a whole career about gaslighting America and feeding a cult utter garbage to help an authoritarian “Both”

If Trump is protecting Howard Lutnick who is (at this moment with 3 million pages still hidden) merely mentioned and there’s no pushback by Trump, imagine how bad it must be that Trump can’t defend pedophiles… so Trump hides the Epstein Files instead So yeah, “I know” Release the Epstein Files

I know, I know it, that Trump is protecting pedophiles by refusing to release the Epstein Files “How do *you* know it?!” Easy Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick is in the files already released… and Trump won’t fire Lutnick and Lutnick won’t resign Trump is protecting Lutnick in plain sight

We need to have a national Fair Maps law and requirement Until such time that happens, “Remember Texas” is the cry if the overreaching goal is to stop authoritarian rule Don’t complain that the authoritarians changed the rules, use the rules to save our democracy

Good morning, The redistricting of Virginia reminds, again, that this Trump Regime and their changing rules to keep power must be met by using those same rules against the Trump Regime Democracy matters, even when a vote is to gerrymander to *keep* an overall democracy over tyranny Good morning

A rollie-coaster of a ball game tonight The ball flying out of the ball park The winning streak continues at 7

After I had my rant about the Bears, all of today I watched, waiting, and read… This Bears deal is exactly the kind of thing… … … I can’t

The Phillies have given up so many walks, it’s like a merry go round

It’s not that I *want* Virginia to draw a 9-1 Dem map It’s that I know I *need* Virginia to draw that 9-1 Dem map to offset MAGA Regime rule via “new rules” One can’t point at these new rules, all must use these new rules until a national Fair Maps goes into existence
