  • Good, better, best. Never let it rest until the good is better, and the better is best.

    Billy Williams, the Chicago Cubs great, shared this inspiring motto during his Hall of Fame speech. Now, Ben Johnson is using the motto to inspire the Chicago Bears.

    For anyone who wants to be exceptional at anything, put this motto on repeat and get to work!

  • The 2026 Chicago Cubs need to take a page out of Michael Jordan’s playbook and use this video as inspiration to destroy the Brewers next season. A still of this video needs to be in every locker, and the video needs to play on repeat in the clubhouse.

  • Try Not to Suck

    Had to break out a 2016-vintage t-shirt for tonight’s Game 3 against the Brewers.

    Let’s go Cubs!

  • My first favorite baseball player, and my favorite all-time Chicago Cubs player.

    RIP Ryno.

  • As a lifelong Cubs fan, it’s strange to hear Chip Caray calling a Cardinals game. On the other hand, it’s nice to hear Chip Caray calling a game again.

  • The video and audio sync between Marquee and WSCR on MLB.TV is exceptional tonight. Always great to be able to watch the game while listening to Pat and Ron and hearing the ball hit the catcher’s glove in perfect harmony.

  • After a long winter, it’s finally here. That magical, mystical day when everything is possible. The future is wide open. Hope springs eternal. It’s Opening Day!

    So, if life or work has you down, remember, your team is tied for first place, and summer is right around the corner.

    *And yes, I realize my Cubs are in a 0-2 hole thanks to the most expensive team in baseball, but I’m just going to pretend those games didn’t happen.

  • That’s not the wind chill, folks!

    But, there is good news on this frigid morning. It’s Opening Day of Spring Training so somewhere much warmer than here, the Boys of Summer will be at a park playing ball, and summer is inching closer.

    It’s been an up and down season for my Chicago Cubs, and while not technically eliminated from the playoffs, the Cubs would need to go 8-0 the rest of the way while the Diamondbacks, Mets, or Braves experience an epic collapse.

    On the bright side, the team will likely end the season with more wins than losses, and the last game is a classic Wrigley Field afternoon game starting at 2:20.

    It brings back great memories of the businessman specials back in the 90’s and early 2000’s. There’s nothing quite like the smell of a packed Red Line L train from the Loop to Wrigleyville in the hot summer months. Great times!

  • It’s these types of plays that makes me so hopeful for successful Cubs teams over the next several years. The kids can play!
