If you've been fortunate enough to drive around ChicagoLand the last few weeks, you've probably noticed this annoying blimp flying through the skies. It's noisier than hell and looks like it's going to crash and burn like the Hindenberg of the 1930's. So, this thing is in town...docked in Lansing, for two reasons. First, AmeriQuest is sponsoring the Rolling Bones "The Bigger Bang" concert tour, and secondly, it's here to put a hex on our sports teams. The Cubs? Fuhgetabaddit! They can blame the blimp. They can blame a goat. They are more "done" than a $1.99 prime rib in Las Vegas. Yep, this thing is in town for a while to provide an "eye from the sky" perspective of the Cubs, Sox, and Bears. That blimp should not be allowed to hover over "The Cell" because that would be way too much pressure on the team that is "this close" to the World Series. Afterall, the cameras on this blimp are pretty much anyone's for the taking...local news, ESPN, FOX, Comcast. Hey AmeriQuest, don't wreck a good thing. Get out of the airspace over "The Cell" and park the blimp over Soldier Field. At least that would give Lovie Smith a reasonable explanation for whatever happens!
