Morning, dudes. Gausman’s on the bump tonight. We’ve got a fighting chance til we don’t. Go get em.

Two year old rubs my head as I’m putting her to bed. “Dada! You don’t have hair!” Look man, it’s bad enough when you guys roast me but when my kid starts doing it…

Announcers at the Iowa-Michigan game: “Okay, now it’s time for the play of the game.” My wife: “…didn’t we just see it?”

66 and partly cloudy at first pitch at Wrigley for the regular season finale. Get in for 4 hot dogs from Wrigleysville Dogs on Clark; bleachers for 10 hot dogs; all you can eat/drink seats for 58 hot dogs. God bless Chicago, and long live the neighborhood.

You guys will understand this when and if you have kids but the amount of thought I've put in to where I'm going to sit with my toddler at Wrigley is astounding. Can't be somewhere it'll be too cold. Don't want to spend too much because who knows how long she'll last.

64 and cloudy at Wrigley tonight. Get in for an order of Chef Tee’s rice and a side of veggies from Cozy Noodle on Sheffield; bleachers for 3 orders of sriracha fried rice; all you can eat/drink seats for 19 Spicy Suzukis. Eat at Cozy, tell Chef Tee I sent you. He’s the best.

While you may have been sleeping, the Cubs lost and didn’t clinch a playoff berth just yet, PCA didn’t get to 40/40 just yet either but the good news is, both have another crack at it today and so do you. Good morning from Chicago.

Matt Lindner @mattlindner.bsky.social · 23/09/2026

It's playoff berth not playoff birth, unless some woman gives birth at Wrigley during a playoff game in which case it would be a playoff birth.

Matt Lindner @mattlindner.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

It’s the final homestand of the regular season at Wrigley Field, the Cubs are in playoff contention, every game means something, and the MVP is on our team. Bless.

I try not to get too high or too low about Chicago sports because I’ve got an amazing life but Caleb being out for the rest of the season would absolutely ruin my day.

Neighbor drunkenly DoorDashed Taco Bell and passed out before it got there so it’s just been sitting on her front door overnight in the rain. So sad. Never a dull moment in Wrigleyville…

The thing about taking your family to Disney World is it is exhausting and it is overstimulating but it is, in fact, magical.

And here I was thinking all the wellness dartys had eliminated blacking out at Florida State.

Thoughts and prayers to everyone who is training for the marathon today because holy hell it is brutal out there.

Matt Lindner @mattlindner.bsky.social · 03/09/2026

If you have to go outside here in Chicago maybe don’t because it is already incredibly muggy and gross outside.

World record Malört thing at Recess tomorrow night. Get excited. Yep.

The Bears, Cubs, and White Sox all start within 15 minutes of each other today. Can’t remember the last time that happened, if ever.

Found out that the quick service grill where I got an Italian combo during the rain delay in Game 7 of the 2016 World Series — ChipMonk’s on Diversey — has permanently closed. SAD DAY.

Nothing will make you feel superior to the rest of the world quite like getting in a crispy little workout while everyone else is still in bed on a Saturday morning.

My wife: “Did you remember to put the broom away?” “…the hell you talking about babe?” “Because your boys didn’t SWEEP.” She chose violence this morning. Thursday.

My toddler said she wanted to play volleyball so she’s currently wearing an oven mitt on her left hand while throwing a ping pong ball around the room with her right and I’m not sure that’s how volleyball works but I’ll allow it. Sunday.

Wife mentioned how some Chex Mix would be nice last night as we were zoning out on the couch. As I was coming home from the gym this morning, I remembered this and got my lady not one but TWO bags of Chex Mix. Sometimes it’s not about flowers, it’s about getting her Chex Mix.

Look I know it’s a serious weather event but corn belt derecho sounds like some sort of college bar cocktail involving multiple shots of everclear and a cocktail umbrella.

15+ years of living in Chicago and the first day of Air and Water Show practice always catches me off guard.

Partly cloudy and 82 for Tarik Skubal’s 1st start at Wrigley. Get in the door for 5 1/3 Tiger Rolls from Ukai Sushi on Belmont, just a 13 minute walk from Wrigley; bleachers for 8 1/3 Tiger Rolls; all you can eat/drink seats for 22 Tiger Rolls. Go get ‘em tonight, fellas.

Kids down, dishwasher is running which means I get ten whole minutes to myself to zone out in peace. Bliss.

Good morning, dudes. You can do it, unless you can’t in which case at least you tried.

PCA took three walks today and that’s a good reminder of all of us that we should be getting our steps in.

Just got off the plane and the woman who was sitting behind us told me “Your kids were so well behaved!” And as a parent of two young kids, there is no higher compliment you can get after a 2 1/2 hour flight.

Me: “I’m surprised there’s not more merchandise from the local minor league team at this airport.” My wife: “That’s because nobody is more interested in minor league baseball merchandise than you in this airport.” She’s got a point. Saturday morning in Fort Myers.

Patrick Kane playing with Connor Bedard is a real circle of life moment, like if Michael Jordan got to play with Derrick Rose.

My toddler is currently running around in circles in our living room singing "Go Cubs Go," to which she knows all the words of the chorus, and I have never been prouder in my life.

Sat down on the recliner in my toddler’s room this morning and she immediately came over, dropped three books on me, and hopped in my lap and I’m gonna take this as a sign I’m doing something right as a parent.

Nothing better than escaping the great outdoors for the fresh air of an underground red line station, that’s what I always say.
