Edison Park here. Crazy that the best basketball in Illinois is coming out of Rogers Park. Good for them!

I know right,when im ordering a pizza to the house or ordering at a bar or restaurant,I never order a deep dish pizza,nor does anyone i know.If i do have someone in from out of town,or i do go to a place famous for deep dish(like ginos or lou mal)i will get a deep dish,but other than that its always thin crust.And forget about all the fancy toppings,just gimme straight cheese and sausage,and im good.I will get some frozen Ginos deep dish,if im at jewell or any store,just cause there really aint no good thin crust frozen pizzas.

Been a fan of any Chicago basketball since i was a kid in the mid 70's early 80',i can remember watching Loyola(Wayne Sappleton,Alfredrick Hughes) or DePaul games(Dave Corzine,Jon Ponsetto) on tv,on like channel 26 or 44 or something,this was way before cable.I cant believe Chicago doesnt have any perennial powerhouse college basketball teams like say Villanova,they could recruit some of the best basketball players in the nation,right in their backyard.Back in the day Chicago HS basketball was the best in the country.Hell when i was a kid,i went to Proviso West HS,they had 1 of the biggest Christmas Holiday basketball tournaments in the nation,just for a lot of local teams.The 1 year i was in school,some of the players in that tournament were (Isiah Thomas,Glen(Doc)Rivers,Mark Aguirre,and Terry Cummings).Im sure everyone of those guys is in the basketball Hall of Fame,thats 4 Hall of Famers in 1 HS Christmas tournament,thats pretty impressive.

Its Cabrini.I think those are all torn down now,the city finally figured out that land was worth a fortune,so it seems like they started shipping all the section 8's to the suburbs instead.All the Robert Taylor projects across the Dan Ryan from Comiskey Park are torn down also,for years those were a huge eyesore for anybody coming into the city from the south.

You think? Of course they are- in 1984 I bought two units in the John Hancock building..They cost 55k each- I don't know what they go for now, a million? Anyway my wife wouldnt live in one with me beacause of Cabrini- Our second child was on the way and she just didn't want to be that close to projects.  So I dumped them for like 60k the following year

THANKS HONEY!

Hit up Firewater which just opened up in the old TR's on 111th. Much better beer selection and really good food as opposed to Bourbon Street.
