I hate to repeat myself (who am I kidding), but the Bregman contract is going to go down as one of the WORST signings in Cubs' history. It's scary to think that if he's playing this bad now, how bad he will play the "next" season, which will not be most likely until 2028, when he'll be 34!!

Just because you and others keep saying that, it does not make it right or true. Cook County, as a whole, has seen no meaningful population growth in some time, and in fact, has seen population decline since 2000. AH is not growing because there is no people to grow it, or Cook county as a...

Again, where would those people come/move from? Using that area for residential development will be pretty useless. For residential development to make sense, be justified, and be net positive economically and from tax revenue purposes, you need one or both of: 1) population growth in the area...

You're completely missing the part (and the point) about the other tax revenues and economic benefits from having a project like a Bears stadium and related facilities. Sales tax in Chicago/Cook is north of 10%, and that's not even accounting for all the entertainment, hotel, etc. taxes that...

In no particular order, I'd say these players were definitely better and more important to Astros' success during that time frame than Bregman: Altuve, Correa, Springer, Kyle Tuker, and Gurriel, and at different times one or more of Reddick, McCann, and Beltran, and that's just the...

Those are all fair points; however, my comments were directed to the comments I hear repeatedly where people say that what the Bears were asking for relating to the AH location amounted to giving away (or fleecing) of taxpayers. I just don't see how Illinois taxpayers are being fleeced when all...

I still don't understand where or how this "fleecing" is supposedly taking place. The Bears bought the land with their own money, and are (were) willing to build the stadium without any public money. All the Bears asked for was that the state/county/town(s) address the infrastructure issues...

Not sure I'd say "I like the Hayward signing," but it was definitely less bad, thus the comment ("worse than the Hayward signing by a mile"). The Bregman signing (and to a lesser degree Hayward) are proof of the folly of demanding aggressive actions and free agent signings by the owners for the...

As I keep saying, the Bregman singing is the worse signing ever by the Cubs… worse than the Hayward signing by a mile. An overrated loser

Love this team; such a collection of likeable, good kids. I will always have a special place in my heart for the 2025-26 Illini. It truly sucks that we have our worst shooting day and end up losing to one of the (if not the most) unlikable coaches. As much as I hate Michigan, i truly wish...

Couldn’t be happier to be proven so wrong!! Still eating my crow, and happy to do so Go Illini!!

It’s very depressingly ironic that we have to go through Houston (arguably best team at this point) to get to the Elite 8 whereas one of Iowa and Nebraska will get there (by playing the other). It’s frustrating things break for some teams in the NCAA tournament

I have one word for you: "Cryogenics"

Idk, I think we deserve to be unranked based on, if nothing else, the loss to Wisconsin. It is/was inexcusable, especially since it wasn't even a close loss. We also didn't only lose to Indiana, we got demolished by them, on a nationally televised night game

If the defender (a safety) covering Moore got to the spot and made the catch, why wouldn't Moore be able to get there?
