So, I have trouble feeling stong loyalties to sports teams. Most of my family and friends were Da Bears/Cubs/Bulls/Blackhawk fans. Had to root for these teams when surrounded by dozens of family members in Itasca (near Medinah CC).
Taltarzac, Itasca is almost in my back yard. I'm just hoping the Cubs do something some year. My dad is 82, and he has been a Cubs fan all his life, but I don't know if the Cubs can pull it together in time for my dad to see something like a World Series appearance by the Cubs. Even if I do move to TV someday, I will still be a fan of Chicago's teams.
