The Windy City is infamous for its sports teams. Five teams in one city seem like a lot, but the Bulls, Cubs, Sox, Bears and Blackhawks all have their quirks. Here are 11 signs that you've suffered and celebrated as a Chicago sports fan:
1. You always think this is the season of the Bears. But then it's not.
Maybe 2016?
2. You pray for Derrick Roses's knees daily.
Your heart hasn't been the same since 2012.3. You know what it feels like when you haven't won a World Series since 1908.
Damn you, Billy Goat.
4. The Bears beating the Packers on Thanksgiving was better than your mom's turkey.
How do you like them apples? Hold the cheese.5. This is how you react when someone cheers for the other team:
North side or south side? Choose carefully.
6. If Chelsea Dagger comes on you will dance and you don't care who's watching.
Even Captain Serious has some moves.
7. You won't ever forget this 2013 playoff game.
Fifty one personal fouls, nine technical and two ejections.
8. You're used to saying goodbye to your favorite Bears players.
RIP Urlacher, Forte, Marshall, Peppers and Tillman
9. You take personal offense to being called a bandwagoner.
Still bitter about this goal being disallowed.
10. You have had this poster on your wall at some point.
And you're still amazed by how he's actually flying.
11. Through all of the ups and downs, these are your teams and you wouldn't trade them for the world.
Or even a slice of deep dish pizza.
