Brent Seabrook sympathizes with fans after staying up to watch Cubs
Kim Klement / USA TODAY Sports
It was almost 2 a.m., while sprawled out on the sofa, when Brent Seabrook finally understood the sacrifices fans of the Chicago Blackhawks are willing to make.
Back at work, and likely needing another coffee several hours after the Chicago Cubs fell to the San Francisco Giants in extra innings early Tuesday morning, Seabrook touched on his new appreciation for the club's dedicated fans.
Seabrook on staying up late to watch the Cubs: "I can understand why the fans ... get pissed off when we’re going into 2 and 3 overtimes."

Blackhawks fans don't have it easy. Only the Nashville Predators live farther east among Western Conference teams, meaning most Blackhawks games away from the United Center run deep into the night.
