So … @RiversCasinoCHI has MIN-NSH, EDM-VAN, SJO-FLA and 2 college 🏈 games on the main sports book screen while @NHLBlackhawks are on a small side wall screen. Does Rivers Casino hate Chicago hockey?

A good passenger-friendly act would be limit airlines to a maximum of 40% of the gates at an airport. Give us more competition @SenWarren @SenSanders

As you watch TNF 🏈 and see a nice Browns stadium remember “Right now they’re building a NEW $2.4B domed stadium” And it’s neither on the lakefront nor downtown It will be 16 miles away … just like Hammond @ChicagoBears @chicagotribune @Suntimes @GovPritzker @ChicagosMayor

Waste not, want not with a banana peel-boosted side dish

“Tsukudani” is already a sweet treat, so adding byproducts of the fruit is a match made in heaven.

What happened was we passed a major Residential Landlord Tenant Ordinance tightening in 2020 and then increased Inclusionary Zoning requirements from 10 to 20% in 2021. You can see the collapse of new supply in Chi in real time. And no, these policies don't stay in multifamily.

What's Happening in Chicago's housing market? Inventory has collapsed a monumental 63% from pre-pandemic norms. Dropping from: 40,000 in August 2019 to 15,000 in August 2026 That's the biggest listings contraction of any large metro in the U.S. As a result, prices are still exploding across Chicago, with bidding wars running rampant. This is happening due to a reverse migration trend bringing people back to the Chicago metro, along with a lack of home building. Don't be surprised if some ZIPs achieve 10% appreciation in 2027 as a result. To see your forecast, search now at reventure.app.

The video series I’d love to see @A_M_Golf would be a Back to Fundamentals for the entire golf swing. A how-to for beginners and a refresher for the rest of us who are unlikely to have all of the fundamentals mastered

Stuffed sushi pockets with a show-off personality

“Shinmai” (new rice) will be hitting shelves in the coming weeks, and this recipe makes full use of this staple ingredient.

Let’s fix three sports logos. Which fix do you like best? The Chicago Bears, the Minnesota North stars or my niece’s softball team “Energy”?

Japan’s homegrown peppers can pack an unsuspecting punch

With names like “hawk’s talons” and “lion’s head,” these popular peppers are a great way to eat more veggies with a kick.

Today @ChicagosMayor said “Our work is not done” What he should’ve said is “Our work is not working” @chicagotribune @Suntimes

During this election cycle when a candidate says “Tax the ultra-wealthy” Ask them “Will you repeal Step-Up-In-Basis?” Any answer other than “Yes” means that they’re not going to actually tax the ultra-wealthy @TheDemocrats @GOP @USATODAY @CNN

When you lose 25% of your customers (students) you have 3 choices: • Charge a lot more per customer and have empty spaces • Change a lot more per customer and reallocate your resources to deliver exceptional results • Reduce your footprint & expenses @ChiPubSchool chose #1

What do we call you if say you’re against billionaires massing wealth and at the same time you’re evading inheritance tax with Dynasty Trusts. Don’t cry … “Tax the Rich” While you’re evading taxes and hoarding wealth We call that a Hypocrite @TheDemocrats @GovPritzker

Most golf lessons are tweaks. Fix one little thing which will make us better for a week or two. Addicts us to instruction but never gets us a fundamentally good swing. Fixing fundamentals means we get worse for a while but golf is a lifetime game Don’t buy the ‘fix’ @PGA

We’ve heard that the ladies on the Clancy jury were frustrated that the lone holdout wouldn’t cave to them. I wonder if the holdout was also frustrated that the ladies want to acquit someone that he believed was guilty? @CNN @FoxNews @USATODAY
