What a dagger of a few minute stretch there for LA. Spencer Knight almost gives away two goals with bad passes and then the Hawks get a goal in the last thirty seconds.

Touchdown Utah.

Illinois's own @kadymcfadden.bsky.social starring on Volts!

If he name was Dr Torro I would be a bit suspsicious

Damn, that wasn't fair Bedard.

It's not stale, but if our next president is a Gen Xer, it's time to reboot Back to the Future.

I've said this before and I'll find any chance I can to say it again and again and again. That Pope Chicago Bob is not only a Sox fan, but a real one is one of the unexpected delights of my sports life. chicago.suntimes.com/pope-leo-xiv...

That is funny and I had to post it here to make sure @scotttkennedy.bsky.social enjoyed.

This team is so much fun.

Conor Bedard can do very cool things with a hockey stick.

👀

This statement makes me irrationally angry.

It can't be a coincidence that we have Chicago Pope and the Bears have more wins than Detroit, Minnesota, and Green Bay.

Two things confirmed today: the Blackhawks are a good hockey team, and don't turn on the Bears until the final five minutes of the game.

Make that five goals and nine assists in Bedard's last SEVEN games (he had a third primary assist tonight and I can't count).

This is getting silly.

There's magic disappearing and reappearing Bertuzzi again.

Omg, it's real life Office Space, except at the FBI.

I was confused when Stefanik announced. This line of attack is pretty obvious, and, as evidenced by how brutal the GOP did in Jerz, going to work like a charm. But she's savvy, so she's going to lose bigly for what, Cabinet post? Ambassadorship? Make more rich friends?

It tells you everything you need to know about Donald Trump that he did absolutely nothing while someone was in duress. He just watched.

Just the way we planned it.

Bertuzzi has got some kind of magic shit going on that he just disappears in the crease and the defense is oblivious until it's too late.

Wow, check this one out @scotttkennedy.bsky.social Have you ever seen anything like that before? x.com/AlexDaughert...

Why are we never going to learn about analyzing exit polling in real time? Is it really too much to ask for all the votes to be counted and the validation steps taken before we obsess?

Thank God we're almost done with having to spend attention on NYC Mayor. It is the one point of the election cycle where everyone overreacts about something that just doesn't matter outside of that city.

Hey @scotttkennedy.bsky.social why is the Hawks 100 year on the ice in Winnepeg?

There is a lot of water there I guess?

YES! This the way. The head coach as the superstar is moronic in the NIL era. You need to raise money, spend wisely, and make portal adjustments based on who screws up points 1 and 2. It's not about maximizing recruiting the same way anymore when allocating the money gives you the ultimate edge.

I swear to god A&M if you let Brian Kelly off the mat

We are going to burn that ballroom to ground. It'll be the biggest, bestest bonfire ever on the White House lawn in 2029.

Nothing surprises me anymore, but I don't believe we're in a moment where less accountability is good. People make mistakes. If they're earnest, nothing wrong w/ forgiveness. But his launch was not a redemption story. It was spitfire anger mixed w/ reckless abandon. Accurate.

Excuse me while I bet my life savings on the Mariners.

Who robed the Louvre, right answers only

If the @enjoyillinois.bsky.social or @choosechicago.bsky.social tourism folks don't make this into an ad to visit us, what are even doing here?

fucking bizarre

Wow. Look at Pennsylvania and Ohio/WV/IN (PPL, AEP respectively). The Dominion (VA, MD, NJ) jump is pretty huge, but not nearly the increase those two have. Comed pretty steady over the next five years.

fucking billionaires

Wonderful piece of writing today @neilsteinberg.bsky.social. chicago.suntimes.com/columnists/2...

fucking bequeathed

That'll sure lower those prices that were raised by the Trump tariffs and are hurting all those farmers.

Way to read the room, Mouse.

this is an adam sandler movie waiting to happen, a guy who does onside kicks in his kitchen who helps win the super bowl after he is signed to be an onside kick specialist

Dammit. More selfies, incoming.

A fundamental difference between the idiots that surround Trump and all the rest of the professionals in the GOP is Trump attracts the people who never did their homework. Which is annoying because being stupid isn't supposed to be rewarded. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

I was once in an Industrial Bluegrass band called Iridescent Mammals.

So sad to hear this. He was a tremendous guy and you couldn't have worked a cycle in Illinois without getting his advice if you were smart.

Yep. Publishers need to take responsibility again.
