Before you dis The Stranger's live sports coverage you ought to know that "Chicago Fan" is an important professor in Chicago and Dan Savage's brother.
Someone with a PH.D. in American Literature knows a little bit more about sports that you ever will. Nuf Said. I hope The Stranger covers more Corporate Sporting events, it's the best part of the paper.
William Savage (Ph.D. Northwestern University)
teaches courses in twentieth-century American literature, with special focus on the novel and the Lost and Beat Generations. His research focuses on theories of how people read narrative in relation to aesthetics (ideas about what is or is not good art) and ideology (politics as made manifest in literature). He also writes about the relationship between popular and elite culture in the context of evolving standards for what is thought to be great literature.
Get ready for the snow and below freezing temps! I'd take the 'endless rain' over that any day!
I'm ready for Packers @ Eagles tonight at 5:30. And I'll take Eagles 40 - Packers 3 over rain, snow or a bunch of fair weather fans any day.
E-A-G-L-E-S! Eagles!
Congratulations Professor. You and Lovie have quite a team. Say Hi to Gilligan for me.
Professor Savage, please blog about sports again soon. The great sports coverage is the best part of The Stranger. Your brother Dan Savage rocks!
I moved to New York from Chicago last spring, and never have I missed the Bears more than last night during the Slog coverage. Thanks Dr. Billy, you totally made my night
