Welcome!

I'd like to welcome everyone to Chicago SportsZone, a place where I will post my thoughts on the Chicago sports scene as well as national sports stories. See local and national sports through the eyes of a lifelong Chicagoan and aspiring sportswriter. A particular emphasis will be placed on the Chicago Bears and the NFL, as I will provide game previews, Bears/NFL thoughts, etc. I will also cover college sports, especially college football and basketball. We'll get things rolling with a quick preview of this afternoon's big Bears-Vikings matchup.
