Take me out to the … ice rink?

The Cubs have made themselves mighty comfortable at home this season, walking all over opponents to the tune of a 33-10 record at the Friendly Confines.
So it makes sense that another Chicago sports franchise would want to cash in on all this good karma, particularly one that has, well for lack of a better word, sucked.
In case you’ve been living under a rock, I’m talking about the Chicago Blackhawks playing a Jan. 1 outdoor hockey game against the Detroit Red Wings. This game is freakin’ awesome for one reason: Wrigley Field. I mean, let’s be honest, the Blackhawks certainly aren’t reason enough to get excited for the game. And I’m not just saying that as a completely biased Wings fan.
Anyway, if you’re head still isn’t buzzing from your New Year’s hangover and you don’t like college football, this may be the greatest day of your life. But, if you’re like me, then this will just be a sporting novelty worth watching during bowl-game commercial breaks.
