When I got to Chicago in the summer of 1985, Mike Ditka and the Chicago Bears were king. Coach Ditka set the tone for a team that was punishing, dominant, and fun — and the city loved him for it. I'm thinking of the Ditka family and Bears fans everywhere on the passing of a legend.

Pope Leo has blessed a broken statue of the Virgin Mary found in a dumpster by former Chicago radio host Kevin Matthews.
Matthews discovered the statue during a dark time in his life and says its appearance caused him to rediscover his Catholic faith. He saw himself in the broken statue, and decided to save and repair it. He began taking it around the area and visited hundreds of churches, sharing his story of redemption through a worn statue.
Yesterday, Matthews finally made his way to the Vatican with the Broken Mary. Pope Leo says he was moved by the story and the statue’s meaning.
“How many people – perhaps we ourselves – feel like they are worthless or broken. It is as if their light has been hidden. Jesus, however, proclaims a God who will never throw us away, a Father who cares for our names and our uniqueness.”
The Pope then blessed the statue and approved the title “Our Lady of the Broken,” affirming it as a sign of hope for all who feel discarded, forgotten, or wounded.
Kevin Matthews has a documentary about his journey that is now streaming, called “Broken Mary: The Kevin Matthews Story.”

Chicago Fire just dropped fresh renderings of their $750M beast of a stadium rising in The 78 along the river. 22k seats, true soccer-specific vibes, skyline views, riverfront energy... groundbreaking already underway this year, eyes on a 2028 opening.
Downtown MLS in the Windy City is about to feel very different. 🔥🏟️

Pat Fitzgerald will be introduced as @MSU_Football new head coach on Tuesday at 3pm. My son Tommy played for Fitz at Northwestern, and loved every minute of his time there. Speaking from experience, great hire for MSU.

What’s with wide receivers from Hudsonville, MI making these crazy one handed catches? Lawsyn Weber did his best @TeslaaIsaac impression in @Hudsyfootball win over Rockford. Hey @Lions we have another gem on the west side of the state. @MHSAA @WOODTV
