The funny thing about me that most people never really understand is that, at heart, I'm really a jock

Billy Corgan, the frontman of the iconic alternative rock band The Smashing Pumpkins, is not your typical jock. With his brooding lyrics, haunting vocals, and signature bald head, Corgan may not fit the stereotypical image of a sports-loving athlete. However, the funny thing about Corgan that most people never really understand is that, at heart, he's really a jock.

Growing up in the suburbs of Chicago, Corgan was a talented athlete who excelled in both basketball and baseball. He was known for his competitive spirit, drive to succeed, and love of the game. In fact, Corgan once said in an interview that if he hadn't pursued a career in music, he would have likely become a professional athlete.

Despite his success in music, Corgan has never lost his love for sports. He is a die-hard fan of the Chicago Cubs and has been spotted at numerous games over the years. Corgan even wrote a song called "Bleed" for the Cubs' 2008 playoff run, showing his unwavering support for his favorite team.
