December 25, 2015: Putting a Bow on It

posted in: Bears, Blackhawks, Bulls, Cubs, White Sox | 0

Ok. Let’s wrap up the holiday trifecta. We’ve made some wishes. We’ve given thanks.  How does this end?

It doesn’t. I like a lot of Christmas songs. One of my favorites this year from channel 801 directv holiday and happenings music channel is “why can’t every day be like Christmas?”.  It can be.

As for the day itself, Chicago sports is a big part of it.  What do you think is part of my wish list every year?  If you don’t know what to get me, get me something related to my teams; you can never go wrong there. This year was no different.

A new long sleeve Blackhawks shirt from my sister in our family grab bag started the fun. Since there are plenty of kids to buy for, we do a grab bag and only have to buy for one adult. I wrote something Bulls or blackhawks on my piece of paper, only because I have a ton of Cubs and Bears stuff; you can never have enough. Got a long sleeve Walter Payton shirt from my parents: Classic. And from my wife, a new Blackhawks t-shirt: the feathers are like the buildings in our skyline…very unique design.

As for the people from my real job, they knew too.  I got a Bears blanket; I already have like 3 of them. I also got some Cubs stuff for my office.  Something to put on my desk and some Fathead stickers for my wall. I also got this beautiful framed picture. It was the Cubs celebrating on the field in Wrigley after beating the Cards; the first series clinching win in Wrigley. It’s awesome.  I have a handful of pictures like that put away just waiting for the day I have a man cave.

So yeah, we had it covered, but it works both ways.  My brother in law, my grab bag selection, got a Bears tshirt and ski cap…one with the ball on top.  His son got something I thought he really needed.  He’s only 4, and doesn’t know any better yet, but when I heard he kind of liked the Packers, and even told me the one time “packers, packers”, I knew an intervention was required. What better jersey to get him to nip this in the bud?  Yep, he opened up a number 34 Walter Payton jersey.  Once he puts that on, he will hopefully turn away from the dark side of the force…haha.  And now I hear another nephew of mine was rooting for the Dallas Stars…  Ok, maybe it’s just because he likes to say “Oduya”, but I’ve definitely taken note.

We were going to go jerseys across the board, but changed it up. We did give out 2 more Walter Payton jerseys: one to my nephew named Jordan, from one royalty to the other, and another to a cousin who likes the New York Giants, trying to steer him straight. Another nephew got a Blackhawks blanket, while yet another got a Notre Dame shirt; they both loved their gifts!

So that leaves my son. At 3.5, he’s already had a nice collection of jerseys. Urlacher and Forte were his early Bears jerseys. He had a plain Blackhawk jersey and a Rose jersey that also don’t fit him anymore.  Currently, a Cubs Lester and a Blackhawks Toews hanging in his closet left two teams in need.  Holding off on a new Bears jersey for now, the choice was Bulls 21. Since he refers to himself as Jimmy Butler, it was a perfect fit; I’m Mirotic, my wife is Drose, and our dog is Joakim Noah.  That was the cherry on top of this Chicago sports Christmas.

So yeah, with all the teams covered across the family, every day CAN be like Christmas. I know that’s not what the song really meant, and we certainly will try to remain in that spirit, but at least we’ll be geared up appropriately.  Merry Christmas one last time. Let’s get back to the games.
