Does anyone here live in Chicago?

Move this thread if need be, but I am looking for a place to watch games, and hopefully some people to watch with. I went to the closest place to me that had NFL Sunday Ticket, and they are a Browns bar, and refused to put even one TV on the Panthers game. There was pretty much a 42 inch plasma for every person in the joint.

If you live here, or ever have, let me know where I need to check out to see the Panthers.

I feel your pain, since I live in the northeast.

The interwebs has been my dearest friend this year. I wish I had found out the joys of it earlier. I keep my TV on with the local games going so I don't feel quite as bad about doing it, even!

Just don't let any Bears fans buy you a drink... it may contain anti-freeze.

If you added up the money you will spend at a bar for the rest of the season you could pay for Directv and NFL sunday ticket and not have to deal with obnoxious Bears fans.

This wasn't really about finding a way to watch the games, (I've already made that thread), or finding a "Panther's bar", this was more about seeing if there were people here who wanted to meet up to watch games at bars occasionally.

As for Direct TV, my building doesn't allow dishes, so that, sadly was never an option.

Are my bretheren really that much more obnoxious than any other NFL fans, including Panther fans?

Or is uninspired cheering equivalent to good behavior?

It is my opinion that jerks come in all sizes, shapes, colors, religions, latitudes, and jerseys.

As do decent folk.

    • It is a tough decision.  There is another factor.  Is he in game shape?  A tired Hunt is not better than an "in-shape" Corbett.  When coming off an injury, it is natural to want to protect the injured area, even if it is completely healed.  This can cause you to contort your body for no reason, lose fundamentals, and it could lead to other injuries.  For example, I had a knee in high school that required getting taped.  That made me aware of the knee (not used to tape on my knee) and I pulled my groin (favoring or dragging the leg with the tape).  The trainer explained the groin injury the way I do here--but scared money makes no money.  If he is cleared to play, he is cleared to play.  Watch him, rotate him in for a series, etc.  Specifically, I would want to watch the matchup--who is winning more--Corbett or Hunt?  How is the defense reacting (if at all) to Hunt being in?  Etc.  
    • Shannon was sued for $50 million (settled out of court, I believe) for forcing sex on his girlfriend during a two-year relationship.  He denies it, but ESPN let him go last April.  Chad Johnson's wife filed a police report because he head-butted her in a car and was put on probation. I had to google it.  I watched the Ray Rice video and when you see it, you realize just how vile and cowardly abusing a woman really is.  But for the same point Aussie tried to make, these women are defenseless, and being phyiscally bigger and stronger does not validate your actions.   I can't even stand to watch Steve Smith.  I can't normalize this kind of behavior--again, I do not think R-P had that in mind when he posted this.  When the reason was exposed, we should realize that we are talking life (quality of) and death (in some cases) here.  
    • I can respect the fact that we should not glorify or normalize men who have a history of beating women.  I do not think anyone was thinking of that when they posted this, but if head-butting your wife and unconsensual sex (rape) is something you cannot overlook, I agree with that.  I think they are both half-crazed attention hounds regardless of their pasts.
