Football is not over even though the Super Bowl is in the books. This weekend ESPN, FOX, and ABC all broadcasted games from the revived alternative in pro football, XFL which is heavily funded by WWE Chairman Vince McMahon’s new separate company Alpha Entertainment, The debut games garnered a lot of attention from viewers yesterday with four of the top ten trending topics on Twitter being related to the games that featured the Los Angeles Wildcats, Houston Roughnecks, Seattle Dragons, and D.C. Defenders. Overall the response online was positive with football fans feeling it delivered on it’s promise of being something different but legit.
So it will last longer than the last time we saw the XFL in 2001 when it lasted just one season amid bad reception from sports media analysts and more? Only time will tell. Unfortunately the new XFL does not have a Chicago team this time around. Sorry Enforcer fans, maybe sometime in the future right?
The new league seems streamlined with a fresh takes on rules and presentation on the sport with changes to the kickoff, extra points, and much more. Here are the highlights of the two first games.
Green Day premiered their new album ON AIR on 101WKQX this past Thursday right before the world got to stream it at midnight, so here it is in all of the jump up and down power-pop-in-your-face hook-you-in-the-mouth glory. At a brisk 26 minutes, it flies by with fun smart-ass butt-moving groove while retaining the Oakland trio still delivering all of the goods with some vibes that will remind you of some influences outside of their expectant radar like Arctic Monkeys, 80’s new wave, and even a sample of fellow Rock ‘n Roll Hall of Famer Joan Jett. The album dropped this past Friday. It’s available on all major streaming platforms including YouTube where you can stream it above.
While you are here, check out our exclusive deep-diving ‘press conference’ with Billie Joe, MIke, and Tre prior to the last time they thrilled thousands at Wrigley Field.
Tyler Joseph and wife Jenna are expecting their first spawn….like, any moment now. So, Tyler asked the fans for a favor:
to my fellow professional photo editors:
as my wife and i wait for our first child, i would like your help to show us what we should expect while still expecting.
i need some tasteful creations including half of my facial features and half of jenna’s.
can’t wait to fall in love.
Netflix is introducing a new change for those of that don’t enjoy getting caught off-guard by unnecessary blast of noise. The Verge reported this week that the streaming service will soon let you turn off the ‘auto play’ feature that springs previews of shows and movies as you scroll over them with your remote. It’s odd how some of the near endless options on Netflix have trailer springing on while you are shifting through the menus, and then others don’t. This new change seeks to get rid of the nuisance while we are doing a binge on shows about British cupcakes and true crime documentaries.
Cards Against Humanity will continue their smart-ass get-together game goodness with their own board game cafe in the Logan Square neighborhood right next to one of the city’s most beloved ice cream spots. CAH will open the Chicago Board Game Cafe at 965 N. Milwaukee Ave in 14,000 square foot space right next to Margie’s Candies. It’s a short walk from the Western Blue line station, so it will be pretty accessible for a night of drinking the drinks and rolling the dice.
According to Block Club Chicago, 300 games including Scrabble, Monopoly, Risk, and, of course, Cards Against Humanity with all of it’s dark demented humor will be playable when the cafe opens next week. Food will vary in price from $14-$60. Wine and cocktails start at $10. This same article notes that two escape rooms will also be featured on site with production from the House Theatre of Chicago.
Smashing Pumpkins are going to have a very busy 2020 as today it was announced they will join Guns ‘n Roses on select dates of their summer stadium tour. Unfortunately, Pumpkins will not be playing with the Guns at their July 26th show at Wrigley Field but rather 6 shows across the east coast. Maybe make it a road trip to take in this special bill?
This follows the news from band leader Billy Corgan that the reformed Chicago legends with drummer Jimmy Chamberlin and guitarist James Iha back in the fold, will release a double album later this year. According to Consequence of Sound, Corgan stated this will be “the first real album” since the band’s reformation because they “hunkered down and made a classic ‘Let’s throw it all at the wall and see what happens’ type of Pumpkins record.”
Check out memorable Lounge session with the Pumpkins while they had their triumphant residency at the United Center.
