I was sitting in my office on that drizzly afternoon listening to the monotonous staccato of rain on my desk and reading my name on the glass of my office door: regnaD kciN

In general, it just seems weird to play the same team almost back to back.

Especially at the end of the season. Decent chance it would even be a wild card matchup right after.

I tried watching The Bear because everyone gushed about it and I could not believe there was so much praise for a show that features *multiple* Tortured Refined Chefs working at a fuckin italian beef joint. Could not take it seriously enough to give it more than an episode and a half

Also it was a weird mix of "obnoxiously, in-your-face set in Chicago" and "sloppy about actual Chicago-specific details." I know the second thing is an annoying thing to complain about but if you're gonna soundtrack your show with Wilco and get shots of an incredibly conspicuous Malort billboard, you shouldn't also be doing "hardscrabble business struggling to get by in gritty early-gentrification River North"

Also the Tribune Tower shot at the very beginning of the show is of the Oakland Tribune. But it’s still really entertaining!

The last time the Bears won against the Packers in the first game was 2006. They won 26-0 and it also featured Devin Hesters first return TD in the NFL.

I remember watching this game at a bar in Somerville, MA, when I was in college. The bar was mostly Pats fans, but I vividly remember seeing a couple in Packers gear exiting early and it made me happy.

It's a good show despite a few cringey and incorrect things about Chicago.

Yeah the biggest thing is pretending like River North is some rough-and-tumble neighborhood and not a place where the average 1-bedroom apartment goes for $2,700 a month. But there was also a scene where two guys were arguing about the correct highway to take to get to the suburbs, as if they're from Los Angeles or something and have more than 2 highways to choose from. They were throwing out names like Edens, Kennedy, and Dan Ryan, not realizing that those are all the same road, just at different parts.
