But we did hear the ones from the stadium. You can tell the difference.

First home championship since the 30s I think they said.

I just posted this

Maybe the Heat or the Patriots have a close claim, but that's about it.

baseball, I mean, on account of Series wins in '10, '12, and '14. Though they missed the playoffs in '11 and '13, and the hawks have been in the playoffs every year (But the playoffs are harder to reach in MLB than in the NHL.)

But that's a side note to the real story: YAY HAWKS!

Shoulda been a three-peat.

1 Bears Super Bowl Win
6 Bulls NBA Championships
1 White Sox World Series Win
3 Stanley Cups

Welcome to the new title town.

Now if my Cubs could just win before I die, I'd die a happy person.

When the snow melts away do the Cubbies still play in their ivy covered burial ground?

Between 2.5 to 5 back. If they stay in striking distance by the all star game, then they have a real chance.

Just bring the bride along. Hell, bring the whole wedding party!

I hope that the sun is shining and the weather is gorgeous to emphasis the special event. May it go off without a hitch and you have decades of wedded bliss

But yeah, when you can't beat the Oilers in a must win game in the last week of the season, you know something is wrong.

because you Hawks need to thank Montreal for injuring Our Bishop, the best Goalie in the NHL. Rest assured, we will be back to remind all those old hockey franchises like the rangers and habs, and for that matter, the Hawks that their days of being the Hockey Universe are the past.

By the way, you guys still have Rahm Emmanuel.

Go BOLTS!
