I was asked why I am politically outspoken on a #Cubs account. It’s because A. It’s not a Cubs account. It’s my account. And B. I don’t need any Trumpers. They aren’t my people and they aren’t any use to me.

@dancingbearfeat @meathead Was it any better than getting a bird from a butcher, you reckon?

Today I was driving through the southside of Chicago and stopped at Ricobene’s, a legendary Italian beef and pizza joint. I noticed a sign of the store next-door and wandered in. They had cages filled with live poultry. Chicken, ducks, geese, turkeys game, hens. You could buy it live and take it home or they would dispatch it for you. who knew?

There’s a great story about when Clinton Portis was severely hungover before a game. He was going to tell Mike Shanahan he couldn’t play. Shannon Sharpe stopped him and made him run sprints till he threw up. Portis rushed for 228 yards and 2 touchdowns.
I’m not here to tell you alcohol is good bc it’s not. It is poison and I wish I didn’t love it. But if you can’t go to the gym bc you’re hungover after 3 glasses of wine, you are just a ginormous pussy.

Steven Bartlett says a few glasses of wine ruined the next 3 days of his life “It's one of those areas where you don't understand the hidden cost until you really give it up for a while. I stopped drinking at 30 years old. I'm now 33. When I was 31, I thought, I'll have a drink again because now I could really A/B test it. I had a year of not drinking, decided to have a drink again” “It ruined three days of my life. I had a couple of glasses of wine, didn't get drunk. It ruined three days of my life because of the domino effect it caused” “I got worse sleep that night, and then because I got worse sleep that night, I ate more poorly the next day because my dopamine system or whatever, the cortisol system was all messed up. I podcasted worse. I didn't go to the gym that day or the day after because I felt really bad. I then slept worse, and I could track all of this on my Whoop”

@MattAbbatacola That would not happen at a game I was attending. I'd make sure of that. For either team. There's always a little wiggle room to complete pitching to a batter and be within 5 or 10 pitches of whatever rule is in place. There's a reason for pitch counts...the safety of a young arm.

Saw a kid throw 118 pitches in a 13U game today.
Bullshit.

@TannerBuilds Taking a 720ft garage and converting it into a 1200-1500sqft house. $250-300,000.
English
Client wants to take this external garage and make it into an in law suite to something along the lines of the last picture. Kitchen, bathroom, bedroom upstairs, hvac, etc. What are you charging? It’s 24 wide 30 ft deep.

@Bear_Down_Adam Jaylon has missed a lot of games. Maybe he should switch things up. Even though he came back after 10 games last season, it's not like he was particularly productive.
English
Do NOT fall for the CHGO gimmick here
Jaylon Johnson is never around for this time of the year. He's a dude that compartmentalizes and when it's time he shows up. He's a vet.
This is a nothing burger story.
Adam Hoge@AdamHoge
Sounds like Jaylon Johnson has not been around for the voluntary portion of #Bears OTAs. I asked Al Harris how Jaylon looks and this was the response:

I gotta go mow and I think I accidentally left this conversation after a spam response...
If you've got pizza questions while I'm gone. Put them here or go look at the Pizza Doc.
docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d…
I use grams and a digital scale for measurements.
I don't mess with measuring cups I don't want to clean them.
So that bottom estimate was 1 cup of flour = 120g. Probably closer to 1 cup = 169g and everything's off. Oh well.

I ruined going out to eat for my family after I graduated from college in 2017. Because what I made tasted better, was cheaper, usually faster, and it didn't make us sick afterwards. The easiest win was pizza. I've made over a thousand pizzas since I graduated in 2017. It takes less than 5 minutes of work and you do something else for an hour while you wait for the dough to proof. You can make batches of dough and just have it chill out in your fridge for the week. My go to recipe is 300g water, 500g of bread flour, 12.5g of salt, 10g of sugar, 3-5g of yeast, and if you feel like it 20g of oil. That gets you 2- 14 to 16 inch pizzas or 4 personal size pizzas. The same dough can make a pretty good loaf of bread, bread sticks, calzones, stombolis, etc. Make your own food. It's 100x easier than you think.

@DaBearsTakeOver Who cares?
They're both good QBs. Love is more established and has better stats to this point.
I'll take Caleb and his "to the moon" trajectory.

@dancingbearfeat @thecarm How do the bears limit them maximizing revenue? Their games are mostly in the fall/offseason for outdoor stadium.
English
Since there is confusion over the AH traffic study, I will provide analysis:
1- Traffic will be miserable. Really, really bad.
2- Surrounding municipalities should allocate $$$$ for road improvements that will save 10 minutes.
Solution- Sell lakefront land to Bears. Tax Bears, help taxpayers get out of 500 million in unpaid debt.
Build Soldier Field 3.0.
English
@66eranderson @thecarm It restricts concerts and events during the NFL season. Sure it's only a few months, but it's significant. If they could add 10 more events a year, that adds up.
English
@66eranderson @thecarm The Bears' rent is only around 20% of the revenue brought in by Soldier Field.
The city will almost certainly generate more money at SF with the Bears gone.
Who are people crappin?
English
@ChiRuxinBGO It's not like there wasn't already most of the necessary infrastructure existing. Arlington Park wasn't a corn field.
English
Fans looking to blame #DaBears about the traffic study not being done at this point aren’t fully understanding…
A traffic study is going to cost a minimum of $100,000 and could be upwards of $500,000+.
Furthermore, most jurisdictions won’t accept data that’s 1 to 2 years old.
It’s a good thing they didn’t do the study early in the process since it has taken IL over 3 years to finally make a push to even talk about property tax certainty.
Which then points to the why would they pay for an extensive traffic study when there has been so much uncertainty surrounding the Bears stadium site in Arlington Heights?
The Bears aren’t blameless in this situation but the bigger fault still falls on the politicians (both sides) who refused to take this seriously for too long in an attempt to blackmail the Bears into covering a Soldier Field renovation debt that isn’t even their burden to bear.
Ben Szalinski@BenSzalinski
“Cunningham said the state has been experiencing ‘headwinds’ in negotiations, and those obstacles have only been ‘strengthened’ because of the outreach (to the city) by the Bears.” And the Bears haven’t done the traffic study for the infrastructure money… 10 days to go…
English
I can’t see this being done ever again.

1️⃣9️⃣8️⃣7️⃣ Michael Jordan scored 3,000 points in a single season.. To match it today, a player would need to average 37.2 PPG across all 82 games 🤯

Tonight for dinner we got the crispy air fryer wings, potato’s, and some veggies.
Don’t worry I’m putting on the sauce now.
What are you having for dinner bears fans???
- cream

@jamesonhaslam Yep. Many jobs lost, many jobs called in to fix. I can't tell you how many I've lost to a lower bid that ended up costing the client significantly more in the end.

after about 5 years working in residential construction, I’ve come to the conclusion that
80% of project issues are the consumer’s fault
Y’all can’t resist the siren song of the low price

Doug Plank posted this pic YESTERDAY. Take that to the haters who were questioning his current fitness.

@vegaschris41233 @BBGreatMoments Is there a wrong choice?
I'll take Vlad and those HRs.
English
@BBGreatMoments Vlad was a truly amazing player but if Ichiro had played his entire career in MLB I don’t think this would even be up for debate.
English
You are a GM and can take one of these 2 right fielders for their career, who you taking?

@jameswolfsmith @Randy198059 @ErikLambert1 This defense will live or die on the DT play this season. Fingers crossed.

The #Bears offered multiple explanations for why they didn't get any help at edge rusher this offseason.
All of them sound nice.
None of them made any sense.
When you dig into the details, the real picture starts to form
This is a gamble on Austin Booker. (1/2)
