Any thoughts on how long it will take for a Loop skyscraper to sport "GO CUBS" in lights, or is that too painful a question to ask?

Aww man tht shit would be sweet. How about all 4 sides of the JHC? We could even light the antennaes up Red and Blue. Hopefully the cubbies can win in 08..

Yes, but the truth is, as much as we love nygirl (and we do), we have no idea if her alligances lie with Giant or Jet. The point being, if it were the Giants and somehow we had a Bears-Giants NFC championship game (Soldier Field, of course; forget the Meadowlands), I'm not sure what that will do to our relationship with our Gotham friend.

I mean, she is terrific, but if things get too hot around here, who is to say to emotions run too deep we won't be finding her a place next to Jimmy Hoffa in Giants Stadium?

^ I like Ohio State, North Western, and Rutgers. The NFL does not attract me for some reason. Family went and played for Ohio, family went to/goes to school at North Western, always liked Rutgers ever since I started watching College Football games not including Ohio and NWU. So technically I am a WildCat fan. Saftey?
To keep things photo-related here are a few favorite's I had saved from the last thread..

<< This vantagepoint on Mich. Ave. is pimp.

So is the one from Olive Park..

can I get a Holy Frijoles?

Chicago_Skyline · December 8th, 2006, 07:25 AM

Wow, some really great shots!

How about these two?

UrbanSophist · December 8th, 2006, 08:30 AM

That first pic looks like you've been out at sea for months and you finally see some land in the distance. Except its glass and steel land...

Jax419 · December 8th, 2006, 09:37 AM

nygirl · December 8th, 2006, 08:36 PM

Welcome back bud. Nice distance shot. Chicago looks best from the lake and I love how the Horizon distorts it a little.

Chicago_Skyline · December 8th, 2006, 11:37 PM

Yea, that shot is dopey!

Some deserving fly by pix!
