Anthony Rizzo returning to Wrigley Field is on an entirely different level in terms of homecomings. He was the rock on which the curse-slaying team was built on. He was the face of an entire era on the North Side. Plus, he’s the last of the old core to return. Final closure.

The Bears are 19-46 (.292) against the NFC North since 2014. Matt Nagy won 13 of them, so he won 68% of those games. Outside of Nagy over that span, Trestman, Fox, Eberflus, Brown are 6-35 against the North. That’s absolutely ludicrous.

Derrek Lee and Aramis Ramirez. In my lifetime, arguably the most consistent duo the Chicago Cubs had. Year in, year out providing 25+ homers, 100 RBI, .800+ OPS. Just going out and getting results, and you could always count on it. I feel I didn’t fully appreciate it.

Kyle Hendricks gave the Cubs seven years of really damn good pitching in both regular season and postseason. He’s one of my all time favorite Cubs and we will look back at his career very fondly. But man, he’s just not that guy anymore. It’s rough to see. Decline came fast.

Many Bears fans are already at the “acceptance” stage for Mike McCarthy, who hasn’t been hired and very well might not be the next HC. That’s how much the Bears have broken their fans. That’s how much Chicago has broken their fans.

Also, when it comes to a new Chicago Bears stadium. I am pro dome or at least retractable roof. Cold weather doesn't "win" you games. The past 35+ years should be evidence of that. being good at football with modern practices wins you games.
