The landscape of how we consume sports coverage is continuing to shift.
Between shifts in the algorithms that have driven a lot of our traffic and changing attitudes that a lot of us have towards social media, relying on the timeline as the primary way to find the coverage you want – and for us to reach the people who care most about our content – is no longer working the way that it once did.
To help close the gap between our coverage and your screen, we want to move to your inbox.
Starting next Monday, we're launching The Hot Line, a new, dedicated weekly newsletter.
What is The Hot Line?
Each edition of The Hot Line will contain fresh analysis and takes on the Chicago Fire and soccer. We'll also round up our coverage for the past week to make sure you didn't miss a thing.
We aren't just putting links into an email. The Hot Line is designed to be your way to catch up on what happened – and your briefing for the week ahead.
Every Monday morning, expect:
- Original takes and analysis: We'll have exclusive takes that you'll only get in our newsletter, delivered in a fun tone that we hope you'll want to read week after week.
- A Weekly Roundup: A curated digest of our content over the past week, ensuring that you don't miss a thing – no need to scroll through social media feeds or click through the website.
- Direct Access: A direct line between us without social media algorithms standing in the middle.
The Details
The Hot Line is completely free, and will hit your inbox every Monday morning, starting next week.
We won't spam you. We won't share or sell your email address to marketing companies trying to get you to buy something.
If you've enjoyed reading our coverage and if you've relied on us to bring you Fire-related news and analysis, this is the best way to make sure you stay connected.
Issue #1 drops next week.
Want to sign up? Enter your email to make sure that the first issue is in your inbox Monday morning.
It truly means the world to us. From everyone at our team, we truly appreciate it.
