Short Hops
- No, we didn't expect the Bears to beat the Colts last Sunday night either. But if they're going to build on that, there are three things they must do to beat the Carolina Panthers this Sunday.
- Even if they don't win the game, the Bears are still scoring touchdowns at the bank.
- Arguing over who gets the last drumstick is one thing. But a Cubs-White Sox World Series could drive one family nuts.
- REALLY old school White Sox fans will mourn the death of former manager Don Gutteridge.
- Current White Sox star Carlos Quentin hopes to be healthy by the playoffs. Question is: will he be playing or watching?
- Patrick Kane and Jonathan Towes, the Blackhawks' Teen Titans (OK, they're not really teens but it's not far off) get some more (inter)national publicity.
- From Kansas City to Chicago on a bike: Are gas prices THAT high?
- The marathon gold-medalist from this year's Olympics, Constantina Tomescu-Dita of Romania has joined the field (pdf) of runners for the 2008 Chicago marathon. Hopefully, we'll have better weather this year.
- The Sky take on the New York Liberty in their next-to-last game of their WNBA regular season.
- Chicago teams finished third, fourth and fifth in the 2008 North American Gay Amateur Athletic Association Gay Softball World Series.
- You're in Lisle. You're riding your bike. You have a hankering to see a play. What are you going to do?
