Chicago Bears’ proposed stadium site in Hammond would be built on giant slag heap, near hazardous waste sites

Welp. Edgar, you're gonna get another few weeks to try and get things going in the bigs.

I wanna see Ryan Coogler write & direct a Live And Let Die adaptation that's set in 1953 when it was written.

This dude doesn't know sh-t.

Had a nice and nifty Sean Newcomb story I was preparing for today (he’s been great!), but now I’ve been called upon to write about the trending topic known as “Munetaka Murakami” soxmachine.com/2026/05/mune...

I've wondered what the first 5 Bond novels would look like as period pieces in film. Casino Royale Live And Let Die Moonraker Diamonds Are Forever From Russia With Love The latter was supposed to be the end of the series until Fleming changed his mind.

Somebody in the Colorado legislature is probably looking up the impeachment process as we speak.

Today on @soxmachine.com: Justin Ishbia's plan for a new White Sox stadium involves Amtrak, who has plans for Bridgeport. After a month of investigating, I spoke with 11th Ward Alderman, Nicole Lee, who is trying to get City Hall's attention on this matter. Feature: soxmachine.com/2026/05/just...

The White Sox are 21-21

By 2031, 68 of the Green Line’s 70 stops are set to meet accessibility standards for riders with disabilities, according to the MBTA. The plans include modernizing stops across all branches and consolidating some stations.

American Indian humor is something else.

Does Embiid not realize the Sixers aren't his team anymore? Maxey is the guy there now, so he's the guy the front office will cater to.

Final: White Sox 2, Mariners 1. The Sox scored 2 runs in the 8th. Randal Grichuk hit a game-tying home run. Miguel Vargas had the go-ahead sacrifice fly RBI. The Sox (19-21) won 2 of 3 in the series.

Tonight…

we don’t talk enough about how Chicago is the most gorgeous city in the country

A little historical note on that: colorization was never actually the point. 🧵 I was in post production at Lorimar in the late eighties while the colorization was going on. I had a good friend who was involved in doing the restoration work prior to colorization.

I wonder what the "protocol" is for a response to something like this (which is clearly intentional on Cole's part). Cause Cole's not gonna pitch against the Dash again, so does something happen if he pitches against the White Sox later on in the year?

The White Sox placed outfielder Austin Hays on the 10-day injured list (retroactive to May 2) with a left calf strain, agreed to terms with outfielder Randal Grichuk on a one-year, $1.25 million contract and transferred INF/OF Tanner Murray to the 60-day injured list.

Munetaka Murakami wants every piece of information the White Sox are offering him. So for his interpreter Kenzo Yagi, a lifelong baseball fan has had to suddenly become a baseball expert, learning complex terminology and concepts to translate them accurately. soxmachine.com/2026/05/mune...

White Sox are promoting Braden Montgomery to Triple-A Charlotte.

I don't think Mills really wanted to run for the Senate. I think she felt like she had to because no other prominent Maine Dem wanted to face Collins. That being said...man...if Platner blows this, some people are gonna look really, really bad.

None of the games unfolded in the expected manner, but the White Sox managed to end up on the right side of the score in all of them to sweep the Angels.

No

This is the first time since 2021 that the White Sox have won 10+ games before May.

If Caleb Lomu is available at #25, I feel like he'll be the pick. #Bears

I, for one, very much appreciate every other MLB team badly overthinking signing Murakami last offseason.

the levels of overthinking it took for the entire league to pass on signing Murakami long-term was truly amazing

With Billy Donovan gone, I wonder if Sam Cassell finally gets his head coaching opportunity in Chicago.

"There should be no mystery why younger Americans are as pro-Palestinian today as their forebears were once pro-Israeli. Rabin staked his life on peace. What will posterity say of Netanyahu?" My column on why America is falling out of love with Israel. www.ft.com/content/353e...

I haven't been to Vegas in a decade and honestly, I probably won't go back unless I need to for work. If I'm gonna go on a casino weekend trip, I'll probably do Reno or Deadwood instead of Vegas.

OPINION by Bryan Driscoll: Vegas hasn’t gotten greedy — it’s become downright cruel. Today’s middle-class tourists are subjected to the constant humiliation of scuzzy upcharges and nickel-and-dime torture. Read it here: thenevadaindependent.com/article/opin...

Celtics Game 1

Am I the only old sod who wishes the NFL would move the draft back to Saturday & Sunday?

It'll probably be No, but he should be

White Sox traded Lenyn Sosa to the Blue Jays for recent 17th round pick Jordan Rich and a PTBNL

Can I just say The President is not going to win a feud with a White Sox fan

@keithsmithnba.bsky.social is there something I'm missing with regard to Wemby's eligibility for postseason awards? Basketball Reference & ESPN have him at only 64 games played this season, but there's already been multiple stories written about how he became eligible after last game.

🚨 BREAKING: Nico Schlotterbeck has extended his contract until 2031. Announcement imminent! 🗞 @kicker #BVB

#NadeshikoJapan This stresses the increasingly tougher stance the top ranking Nadeshiko Japan players have been taking. Like demanding the increase of price money at the WAC, to receive detailed tactical instructions before games. The tolerance for amateurish structures is dropping. #woso #女子サッカー

White Sox are optioning opening day starter Shane Smith. Tyler Schweitzer is coming up to take his roster spot.

Markets open in 25 minutes. O/U 29.5 minutes after that before the White House rushes out a statement saying the President misspoke and the thing is taken down?

Happy Easter

I am irrationally hyped that the Weather Channel brought back the Local Forecast in online form on their website.
