From blocked field goals in Chicago to elimination games in Las Vegas, today’s episode of El Ganso de Taberna is all about the razor-thin margins that define sports.

Don breaks down the Bears’ improbable 25–24 win over the Raiders, a game that swung on one desperate special teams play and encapsulated everything maddening and beautiful about being a Chicago fan. From there, we shift courtside, where the Indiana Fever forced a decisive Game 5 against the Las Vegas Aces, defying odds and rewriting playoff expectations in the WNBA. And finally, it’s baseball in October: the Cubs and Padres square off in a postseason clash of philosophies, with Chicago’s power-speed attack meeting San Diego’s elite pitching.

Heartbreak, grit, resilience, and hope—it’s all here. Welcome to October sports. Welcome to the chaos.
