As the Bears 2018-2019 defense celebrated takeaway after takeaway, he was reminded of the \u201963 team\u2014that was his father\u2019s squad, and one of the best NFL defenses ever. His research aids his memory\u2014 and vise versa\u2014and his writing lets contemporary sports fans in on unexplored pasts.<\/p>\n<p>Jack Silverstein is that sports historian. The 37-year-old journalist keeps the legends of Luckman, George Halas, and Walter Payton alive. The average fan perceives a sports achievement as unprecedented but Silverstein\u2019s work reminds them that it&#8217;s probably not. As Brian Urlacher became eligible for the Pro Football Hall of Fame, the Chicago sports guru made sure that his Twitter followers remembered every accomplishment of his 13-year career with the Bears.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>\u201cJack&#8217;s brain is like a storage facility for all this insane, obscure knowledge,\u201d said Pierce Roberson, the editor-in-chief of the Chicago-based publication, <em>The Barber\u2019s Chair<\/em>. \u201cI&#8217;ve told him before how I envy his ability to retain information. He&#8217;s an encyclopedia of sports and Chicago knowledge.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Silverstein has written for a variety of Chicago sports media, including the <em>Chicago Sun-Times<\/em>, the <em>Chicago Tribune<\/em> and the <em>Windy City Gridiron<\/em>; a <em>SB Nation<\/em> affiliated blog covering the Bears. His Twitter account, @readjack, is the premiere destination for Chicago sports fans interested in the history of their favorite teams. On his Instagram account, @ashotonehlo (named after the call of Michael Jordan\u2019s famous game-winner versus the Cavaliers in 1989), he posts largely forgotten tales\u2014 how the Chicago Bears-Chicago Cardinals game on December 7, 1941\u00a0 at Comiskey Park was interrupted by the announcement that the United States had been attacked at Pearl Harbor. George Halas, the Bears legendary head coach, declared his decision to join the war effort at halftime of the game, Silverstein explains.<br \/>\n<!--more--><br \/>\nAs the Golden State Warriors prepared to surpass the 1995-1996 Chicago Bulls regular season record of 72 wins, Silverstein wrote \u201cHow the GOAT Was Built,\u201d a book focused on that Bulls team, and six lessons that can be learned from them.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe things you see and you remember have way more context and nuance and detail,\u201d Silverstein said. \u201cWhen I write about something that\u2019s old, I try to deliver that and try to go back to like, this is what it might have felt like to live through this or or watch this in real time. Because that\u2019s kind of what gets lost.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Greg Braggs Jr., a bricklayer and Chicago sports fanatic who has gained a following large enough to wade into the media waters himself, connected on Twitter with Silverstein after recognizing his one-of-a-kind sports history threads.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s the stuff I grew up on. He just gives a perspective that really hits home for me.\u201d Said Braggs Jr., who co-hosts a radio show, <em>Bears Hour Live<\/em>. \u201cIt doesn\u2019t matter what situation or moment in Chicago sports history, he\u2019s got it\u2014right in the back of his head. It\u2019s always impressed me. The amount of information he remembers, it\u2019s staggering to me. He\u2019s the most detailed writer I know.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Silverstein grew up in Evanston and later moved to Wilmette, attending New Trier High School in Winnetka. When he is doing research that\u2019s not numerical for a book or an article, his steadfast persistence aids him well. He once interviewed the mayor of Evanston\u2014that was in third grade. Later, he worked for the school newspaper in his undergrad career at Indiana University. After college, he leveraged his niche to freelance for Chicago publications while working full-time for non-sports outlets, like the <em>Chicago\u00a0Daily Law Bulletin<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Ironically, Silverstein now spends his days writing about the future. As his Twitter bio states, he\u2019s a \u201cSports Historian &amp; Aging Futurist\u201d. He\u2019s the Associate Editor of Branded Content for <em>Aging Media<\/em>, where he writes about what the future holds in regards to care for the elderly.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think there\u2019s a natural connection between being interested in the past and interested in the future,\u201d Silverstein said. \u201cIt\u2019s why <em>Back to The Future Part II<\/em> is such a good movie. Because it has more to do with the uncertainty of time, the feeling of being wedged between timelines.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Chicago sports fans may not have a time machine, but they have Silverstein.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s a guy on Twitter\u2026 he\u2019s @readjack, he\u2019s a Chicago sports historian, Jack Silverstein,\u201d Marc Silverman said on air during the popular &#8220;Waddle and Silvy&#8221; show on <em>ESPN 1000<\/em>. \u201cIf you want to learn more about the Bulls break up\u2026 if you\u2019re younger, or maybe you\u2019re like Waddle and you forgot a lot of the debates\u2026 he wrote an entire thread on how a championship team just basically broke up\u2026. it\u2019s a must read.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>If the <em>ESPN 1000<\/em>, <em>670 The Score<\/em>, the <em>Chicago Tribune<\/em> and the <em>Sun-Times<\/em> are the bread and butter of a Chicago sports media diet, Silverstein is the vegetables. He\u2019s the vital but often forgotten component.<\/p>\n<p>His work is a guide to becoming the most knowledgeable Chicago sports fan possible. And as for sports debates, it&#8217;s better to sit those out when he&#8217;s around.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Yeah, my stuff is just unfair,&#8221; Silverstein said.<\/p>\n<div class=\"featurecaption\">Photo at top: Jack Silverstein makes sports history sound cool for the average fan.
