March 12, 200620 yr Soxtalk.com will continue its expansion today, by launching a site, one devoted to the beloved Chicago Bears. This site, TalkBears.com, will be the first of a larger network of Chicago Sports sites that we will be building on our new network, TalkChicagoSports (TCS). Soon to follow the TalkBears.com launch will be a launch of a Chicago Bulls website. We hope to expand the passion that is Soxtalk to other teams fans and try to create that same passion on the web for Bears fans. So if your a Bears fan or have friends/family that are Bears fans please tell them to check TalkBears.com out. The site will begin as one forum, but will eventually expand to have offtopic discussions. Once the site takes off we will upgrade to the version of the site that is used at Soxtalk and in the near future TalkBears will also have a front page. Hopefully everyone enjoys it.
March 12, 200620 yr I joined as Da Bears. Should be a good forum, especially when the season gets rolling. Edit: I just posted a bulletin on myspace trying to get people to join. Hopefully this can get as big as soxtalk is. Edited March 12, 200620 yr by whitesoxin'
March 12, 200620 yr Just so everyone knows, Jason primarily did the work to get this site going... And it works!
March 12, 200620 yr Author QUOTE(nitetrain8601 @ Mar 12, 2006 -> 01:01 PM) I'm not a Bears fan, but I like talking football. All types of discussion will be welcome there.

But thats gonna be something that you Hockey folk will have to take care of. But as you know, its in the works and the domain is owned (well talkbhawks.com).
March 12, 200620 yr QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Mar 12, 2006 -> 05:32 PM) I CANT WAIT FOR TALKBLACKHAWKS.COM I can't wait for talkcubs.com. We could have thread threads about Woods simulated games, or Priors simulated games, or should Dusty be fired, or how tall should the Sosa statue be... It'll be awesome.
March 12, 200620 yr Author QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Mar 12, 2006 -> 02:35 PM) Jas, I really dont think you should waste your time. If you want to kind of complete the circle by adding in the Hawks, thats one thing, but I really dont know if there will be that much of an interest. If you do go down that route, I will be all the help I can be... Ya..thats farther down the road, especially considering the fact I don't even follow hockey much. That said maybe the Hawks will get the #1 pick and dumb luck there way into taking the right guy and turn things around. Ehh, maybe wishful thinking, lol. Hell an Illini and Notre Dame board may be more wise. But next on the list is the Bulls site (probably opening when I get back from ST in 10 days cause I got midterms and reports this week). Than there will be a good break as those two sites grow and the Sox season starts.

March 13, 200620 yr QUOTE(TLAK @ Mar 12, 2006 -> 07:12 PM) Tony, pal, there was a day when many talked about the White Sox like you talk about the Hawks. Well, the Hawks no longer rule Chicago like they once did. Last time I checked, the Hawks roster doesn't have Stan Mikita or Bobby Hull on it. Chicago is far, far, far from the "Hawks Town" it once was. The passion is no longer there. Can you tell me the last time the Blackhawks have led off the sports segment or had the front page of the sports section? I think this was his point.
March 13, 200620 yr QUOTE(Heads22 @ Mar 12, 2006 -> 09:05 PM) talkcyclones.com sounds solid. Kind of a nerdy site to talk about tornados? Excellent idea... maybe we could eventually expand into hurricanes and earthquakes as well if that takes off.
March 13, 200620 yr Author The Bulls site may be open by tonight. I'm working hard to get the smilies in and get a couple other skins available.
March 13, 200620 yr Author The Bulls site will open tomorrow AM. Bears site is going to get a sweet color makeover thanks to Heads.
March 13, 200620 yr Author QUOTE(Felix @ Mar 12, 2006 -> 07:38 PM) I'm looking forward to the new skin Its up right now as the default. If you don't see it, go into your control panel and change the skin to the Invision Power Orange One

It's not as far back as Makita and Hull, don't take it back that far. But yeah, i wouldn't wast the time with a hawks forum, tony and i can just talk on AIM, lol. An illini one would be golden, especially if it's the complete opposite of IB.
