have the passion and....the fire?
If anyone cares, the Chicago Fire are about to begin their MLS season in Bridgeview.
I sure don't - but, this may, may, get me to do something like check an internet scoreboard once this season...
after all - they play almost year round.
If you didn't see it - this was written by the 2008 season ticket link - "Being a Chicago Fire Soccer fan means being a part of a community of tradition, honor and passion."
So, if your name contains Fire, and you talk about passion - do you automatically have The Fire and The Passion like Aaron Rowand, or even GrindErstad? 
Or do they have to say, The Fire have The Fire and The Passion?
Can The Passion ignite The Fire within The Fire?
Or - do The Fire create The Passion, which stokes The Fire?
unanswerable questions perhaps - but one thing is sure: It's Chicago, and we still have The Fire and The Passion ... even...if....we're on....fire?...
I give up

Hawk Harrelson on GrindErstad:
"He's just a baseball player."
He is a baseball player, and a crappy one at that.
Exactly! What does that even mean? Do we assume that the other 17 guys on the field aren't baseball players? If they're not, what are they? Well - we know what they aren't - and that's Grindy! With Passion, or Fire!
