The Bears keep winning… and ticket prices keep climbing. Chicago announced a 13.5% increase for next season — after raising prices 8% and 10% the previous two years. If the wins continue, expect those numbers to keep rising.
Meanwhile, Major League Baseball faces major uncertainty as the MLBPA fires its executive director, raising big questions about whether MLB owners will try to push their long‑standing agenda during the chaos.
We’ve also got a tough Kris Bryant health update: he’s reportedly dealing with daily, agonizing back pain, and his career may be nearing an unfortunate end.
Plus — an Olympics update, and we close out the show with a wild fishing story you won’t want to miss.

| 0:15.7 | The Bears raised their season ticket prices by a whopping 13. a half percent. And if you can't do it now |
| 0:23.9 | by that particular amount, when can you? Because they do it every year because everything gets |
| 0:34.1 | more expensive every year. But obviously the rate at which Bears season tickets get more expensive outstrips even the inflation rates of the groceries that we see every day at the moment. |
| 0:46.8 | Obviously, we know that the Federal Reserve likes right around 2%. And we've been well over that much closer to 3%, especially when we look at core, |
| 0:55.8 | when we strip out volatile food and fuel costs. |

| 1:46.9 | And that certainly goes with ticket pricing, |
| 1:50.6 | but it's up 13.5% for your season ticket. |
| 1:54.5 | So I always wonder, like, what is a season ticket cost? |
