I used to think it was just another absurd rumor—until the boomerang returned, sharper and undeniable. As a sports analyst rooted in Chicago, I’ve watched how fandom distorts truth, turning metrics into myth. This isn’t satire; it’s systemic. The game isn’t played for clicks—it’s played for meaning. What we call ‘culture’ is often just the bottom of the food chain. I write this not to amuse, but to remember: what’s real stays silent beneath the noise.
