I was really only interested in the NBA when I was a kid, especially around the Dream Team era.

friend of the family DEATH TURBO posted:seattle isn't this times like a billion, not only is seattle and the surrounding area not a huge market for sports, it's a really loving fickle market that normally has mediocre teams, people here do not get excited about sports, the seahawks craze last year was bizarre and very out of the ordinary. each seattle team has had its time in the spotlight once or twice, but for the most part they're mediocre to outright bad (current mariners, the post kemp/schrempf/payton sonics, the seahawks for 37 out of 38 years)

Games are over quick, no out of bounds, lots of tradition, fights still happen. It's not like the NFL where it takes 4 hours to watch 60 minutes of stop start play. Also the Bears are a generally mediocre franchise who's large fan base astonishes me.

The LA vs Chicago series was pretty loving good. I thought quick was going to choke like he usually does in OT and in shootouts. Pretty bad rear end they pulled it off.

Much like most of the other Chicago sports teams with the Blackhawks and Bulls excluded. I don't live within range of Chicago TV stations anymore but I would always at the beginning of the NFL season when the local news people would trot out stories about the 1986 Bears as of like at least 2011. Sucks about the Blackhawks though.

Apparently it's gotten better, I think I paid about $5 for one of those a few years ago. It's in a shoebox somewhere, I guess. Edit: They were in production for a while before Fleer noticed. There are a few versions...the unedited one, one where it's whited out, and another where its blacked out.

I love going to a AAA game and drinking reasonable priced beer and hot dogs more than anyone, but the fact of the matter is the game itself is simply being forgotten.
