With all due respect to northwest Evanston residents: you bought a house in the neighborhood of a collegiate football stadium.

This is a wild way for the college football world to react to several projections including Northwestern in a 12-team playoff

Republicans Don’t Know Ball Update: A hockey blogger asked the two Michigan Senate candidates for statements on the Red Wings. Rogers: blah blah Michigan loves the Red Wings El-Sayed: angry rant about how the cheap owners MUST pay Detroit’s young star defenseman octopusthrower.com/what-each-mi...
"Hockeytown, USA will always be a coveted destination for the world's top players,"
Rogers said. "The Detroit Red Wings boast one of the league's most storied and respected histories, dating back to their days as one of the Original Six franchises.
Few professional organizations can match the tradition, legacy and rpestige that define this iconic franchise. GO WINGS!""I was at the game when Darren McCarty took on Claude Lemieux," El-Sayed said.
"The '97 and '98 Stanley Cup championships are still highlights of my childhood. The teams the last few years have been a far cry from the Wings I came to love as a kid. They're stacking losing season on losing season, yet the llitch family's wealth has done nothing but grow.
Michiganders are sick of sky-high ticket and concession prices buying them nothing but disappointment."The team holding out on Simon Edvinsson is just the latest example in a long series of ownership prioritizing their bottom line over the team and the fans. Our teams aren't just assets for billionaires, they're part of our culture and heritage. Hockeytown deserves better."

Russian bot farms go offline on Oct 8. 3 days later, Northwestern gets ranked for the first time since 2020. Much to think about. 🤔

You know, the thing is, I had drafted this piece a month ago, and then never published it, because I thought maybe it was too mean.

This is the first time since 2017 I haven’t run, volunteered for, or spectated the Chicago Marathon. Feels weird taking in the action from my couch.

Has Sark considered backing out of the Red River series? If they played Northern Illinois they’d still be undefeated.

I’m glad they went for two. I’m furious that in the most important play of the game, we called a cutesy play call.

Tax billionaire wealth. I frankly don't care if a billionaire can make a second billion. I'd rather have the average person be able to make their first $100k.

Dude why is marathon training so stupid?? I've just had trauma responses to every little intrusive thought that's popped into my head. So annoying. They usually go away after I eat some carbs. So I'm just cranky and tired and eating everything I can get my hands on.

What was the first piece of political propaganda you remember hearing? I was in kindergarten during the ‘96 election and a friend of mine telling me that her mom told her if Clinton got elected, he’d place a limit on how many babies families could have. Pre-Google so I could not fact check this. 😂

I firmly believe every school should go back to using their 70s/80s era cartoon mascots. Obsessed with this hat I picked up this weekend at Jack Trice Stadium.

Dude Chicago is as flat as flat can be. Only "hills" are like 3 bridges you go over the river on (and even those are only like a couple feet of elevation gain) and then Mount Roosevelt at mile 25.5 which is probably 25 feet total. There's a reason multiple world records have been set in Chicago!
