Rest easy, Coach

Open at 1:20pm. We’re cleaning the windows but don’t worry it will still be plenty dank in here for your Ditka mourning drinking needs. #RIPDaCoach

@_alexlevy Have you considered going to a human doctor for your appointment? The fee difference is minimal these days! #NiseiCares

My favorite Ditka story, peeling off hundos and tipping like a madman. RIP.

[Kevin Clark @bykevinclark]

An unbelievable BADASSES from Jim Nantz on MIKE DITKA who he noticed only carried $100 bills on him during the time they did TV together. Ditka would pay for everything with the hundred and let them keep the change. Listen why. An all-time story from Nantz on Da Coach.

Fucking Manfred is going to negotiate a masterpiece of a deal with 8 fewer games for fans but requiring 6 different streaming app subscriptions to watch your team’s entire reduced schedule.

And the owners will bonus him for that fan unfriendly crap. Fucking disheartening.

[Evan Drellich @EvanDrellich]

Note that MLB proposing to have the Division Series expand *beginning in 2029* is TV-related timing.

Those additional playoff games — plus the 154-game regular season set-up where Mondays become a national broadcast window — would boost the potential income for MLB.

Because, remember, the new national media deals are set to begin in 2029!

"I always tell people I want to live to be 150 and they say why would you want to do that. I say, well there's a few people I haven't made mad yet, I want to get them."

— Mike Ditka

Rest in peace Coach Ditka, we will carry on that important work in your memory. #RIP

Come on 2026 White Sox! Make those “fans” who left early feel dirty and ashamed for life!

Tell those Sox Park adjacent clipboard slingers to stop by Nisei this weekend and tell our many hard drinking registered voters the petition pages are to support "Municipal free Malort fountains"

100 signatures easy in one night. #NiseiFacts

[Colin Boyle @colinbphoto]

A person came into a bar near Sox Park and asked the people near me for signatures for “anti-gun violence.” But the clipboards and petition pages had mayoral candidate William Quinlan’s name on them.

Politics in Chicago as the White Sox play in ALDS…
