What are the key highlights of the Bears' schedule release?
This hour is brought to you by Cars for Kids.
I could do Stephen A. 's job, guys. It's not that hard. Danny Parkins. QB1 party! All are invited! Host of Fox Sports 1's First Things First. These games on the East Coast, man. I don't know. It's very hard to be me. I'm up forever.
East Coast time is by far... Central time is the best time zone. It's not even a debate. No, I think that's true. It's a hundred... East Coast... Eastern time means... It makes zero sense.
It's terrible. Oh, boy, you. The Bears, plenty of reason to doubt them.
How does Danny Parkins feel about the East Coast time zone?
Caleb Williams, no.
Former host of 670 The Score before he abandoned us. That's a Caleb Williams custom, baby. Jersey number one is going to the Raptors. You guys made it seem like as Chicago Bears fans, we had our guy, Danny Parkins, all these guys. Danny Parkins on 104.3 The Score. It's hard being me.
Wait, did we get a new Danny Parkins open? I think we did. This is Rahimi Harris and Grody on 104.3 The Score, and he joins us via our hotline. He is also on Twitch, twitch.tv slash thescorechicago. We are just one week away from the Cubs for a Cure Radiothon.
How do the Bears' expectations compare to last season?
Danny Parkins, how is it going? Tell us the latest, and if people want to get involved, where should they go?
I need more time.
Well, that I cannot do.
Yeah. No, listen. The thing about it is it's going to get here, and then it's going to be done, and we're going to raise a ton of money. So I'm super excited about it. There's still time to get involved for sponsors or individuals. We have insane donation incentives, like just completely insane. So I would just say – Get ready at this point. If people still want to get involved, the DMs are open. 1043radiothon at gmail.com is still open. We've been plugging that for a long time. People have reached out in amazing ways. This is a new one, and this is fun. How about a Cubs takeover of St. Louis for the Friday after the Radiothon? Oh, yeah. It's Cubs-Cardinals. It's in St. Louis. It's the Friday night game, so you've got to make the road trip.
Jordan Davis, I'm not familiar, but he's apparently a huge country star, is performing a concert on the field after the game. And I have, I think it's, I have over 20 tickets, like premium seats, like a bunch of row A's, a bunch of behind the Cubs dugouts. a bunch of right behind home plate with like all you can eat, all you can drink, parking passes and the whole thing. Like we are absolutely going to move these tickets and have a bunch of Cubs fans that will be noticeable on the broadcast and like the best, the best seats in the house for that game. And you know, Sweet tickets to every Bears game this year. Not S-W-E-E-T, S-U-I-T-E. So, like, premium Bears tickets with cool experiences there. Autograph memorabilia.
Just, like, be sure you're listening and watching because the whole thing is simulcast on Marquee on May 21st. We raised $750,000 last year. I think we've got a real shot at a million if the score audience comes out. But even if we get to 6, 7, 8, 9, whatever we get to... It's going to be a big number, and it's for a great cause.
What is the Cubs for a Cure Radiothon and how can people get involved?
And so I hope people get involved and hang out with me all night.
1043radiothon at gmail.com is the address if you want to get involved. We've had a lot of support on the text line, and we've gotten an update from the Twitch mob. MXHawk says the mob has raised over $2,300, so they are ready to go. It's amazing.
Yeah, no, that's a great job by the Twitch mob, as always, and I know they'll be hanging out with me all night. I'll try to get into the chat late in the broadcast so that I can get in and start interacting. Honestly, I haven't done a count yet on number of sponsors and number of guests. But it's pretty ridiculous, the sheer volume of people. And I'm really proud of it, guys. And I think the score should be really proud of it. We have a lot of returning guests. We're going to do an in-memoriam. I don't know if I told you guys about that, but we're going to be honoring some of the patients who've been on in the past who have passed away, just regular folk who had been on the Radiothon.
