Every coach this weekend #ForDitka

[Jarrett Payton @paytonsun]

It’s with a heavy heart that I’m sharing the Ditka family has announced the passing of Mike Ditka this morning.
Da Coach. Hall of Famer. The heartbeat of the ’85 Bears and a Super Bowl champion. Chicago won’t be the same.
Prayers to Diana and the family.
RIP, Coach. 🐻⬇️

Here’s a statement from the family:

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved husband, father, grandfather, and friend, Mike Ditka. While the world knew Mike as a Hall of Fame football player, legendary coach, and leader of the Chicago Bears’ Super Bowl XX championship team, we knew him as the heart of our family. Mike will be missed beyond measure and remembered forever.
With love and gratitude, The Ditka Family

@theJakeKaplan @whitesox Oh oh oh oh oh oh

[Mark Goldstick @MGoldstick]

That chant by the @whitesox fans is VERY annoying

[Mark Goldstick @MGoldstick]

He really is. He did his homework

[Brad Galli @BradGalli]

It was always going to be TV for Justin Verlander after his playing days ended.

He’s really good at it

[Mark Goldstick @MGoldstick]

All of them deserve 7 games

[Russell Dorsey @Russ_Dorsey1]

This series deserves seven games, not five.

@Brewers @RaysBaseball World Series would be a baseball clinic

[Mark Goldstick @MGoldstick]

I do too but they are a really good baseball team

[This Day in Chicago Sports @ChiSportsDay]

God I fucking hate the Brewers

[Mark Goldstick @MGoldstick]

Why? These players have not proven anything yet and @NHLBlackhawks are 0-3 and have looked terrible doing it

[Chicago Sun-Times @Suntimes]

The Hawks have already signed Oliver Moore long-term and had "soft conversations" with some of the other players in that bucket: Ryan Greene, Artyom Levshunov, Sam Rinzel and Wyatt Kaiser. https://t.co/RUG6B8OMk9

Pete Rose shares tons of baseball knowledge with A-Rod and Frank Thomas. It’s a 6 minute video, but I promise you, it’s the best thing you’ll see about Pete Rose today.

The key words are “at Wrigley “. But partying in the locker room was much more important SMH @Jumpshot8

[The Windy City Breakdown @wcb_pod]

One year ago today, the Cubs beat the Padres in Game 3 on the NL Wild Card Series at Wrigley Field

Turns out playing at Wrigley in the playoffs is important …

[Mark Goldstick @MGoldstick]

Yes he did. SIGN HIM JED!

[Cubs Zone @CubsZone]

Seiya Suzuki says he’s unsure if he reached his & people’s expectations for him over the last 5 years 🥺

[Eddie A Johnson @Jumpshot8]

What a disappointing end to this season @Cubs . But hey you got the chance to celebrate after clinching a wild card and losing focus knowing you had to travel to Boston for a double header that cost you home field advantage!

[Mark Goldstick @MGoldstick]

Absolutely horrible place to watch baseball. So few seats directed to home plate

[steve_grad @Steve_Grad]

It was a great place. Luckily I got to see 500+ games there. Go Sox

[Mark Goldstick @MGoldstick]

I could listen to @JoeyVotto talk baseball all day

[Mark Goldstick @MGoldstick]

@Jumpshot8 @Cubs Thanks for your confirmation Eddie

[Mark Goldstick @MGoldstick]

Chicago pizza at its best

Pizza time 🍕

Roberto Clemente for me

[Baseball’s Greatest Moments @BBGreatMoments]

Everybody's answer here is partly about the player and partly about who was sitting next to them.

Mine is Griffey. On a broadcast that swing looked easy and a little lazy. From a seat down the right field line it looked like he had been given extra time that nobody else on the field received.

The thing television cannot give you is defense, the way a great center fielder is already moving before contact, and the way an infield quietly changes shape between pitches.

Cameras point at the pitcher and all of that disappears. So give me the name, and the ballpark, and the year. What did he do that day while you were sitting there?
