The Big Ticket ep. 26
Episode 26 of The Big Ticket is here, and this one’s loaded. We bring on a special guest for a deep dive into the state of Chicago sports and everything going on across the league right now. We break down the future of the Chicago Blackhawks, the direction of the rebuild, young talent, and what needs to happen next for this franchise to get back to relevance.
Then we shift over to the South Side, where somehow the Chicago White Sox are actually playing good baseball again and becoming one of the more fun stories in the city after a brutal last couple seasons. Meanwhile, the Chicago Cubs have hit a rough patch lately, but we talk about why fans still shouldn’t panic with where they currently sit in the standings.
