Narrative:

We were cleared to land on 22R to hold short of runway 27R. Aircraft was heavy (95,000 pounds) which required the use of 25 degree flaps instead of usual 30 degree. Vref speed was 142 KTS. I landed approximately 1400' down runway and began a normal deceleration. I decided not to use the hi-speed turnoff as a turnoff farther down the runway was closer to our parking gate. As we passed the hi-speed, the controller asked if we could hold short of 27R. This startled me and I began heavy braking. Rather than say we could hold short and then not be able, I had the copilot reply we are not sure. The controller then told another air carrier who had landed on 27R to hold short of our runway and for us to expedite through the intersection. Since we had almost came to a complete stop by this time, we had to come out of reverse and try to accelerate. I am angry at myself for not being more aware of the situation. After landing I was more concerned about a smooth deceleration and a turnoff that would expedite our taxi to the gate than I was about the operational requirement to hold short of an intersecting runway. Sometimes we get too far ahead of ourselves. A natural thing in a profession that requires us to stay well ahead of our airplane.

Title: FLT CREW OF MLG LNDG RWY 22R AT ORD WAS CLEARED LAND HOLD SHORT 27R. FLT WAS ABLE TO HOLD SHORT BUT THEN CLEARED ACROSS 27R, EXPEDITE. ACFT LNDG 27R ADVISED HOLD SHORT 22R.

Narrative: WE WERE CLRED TO LAND ON 22R TO HOLD SHORT OF RWY 27R. ACFT WAS HEAVY (95,000 LBS) WHICH REQUIRED THE USE OF 25 DEG FLAPS INSTEAD OF USUAL 30 DEG. VREF SPEED WAS 142 KTS. I LANDED APPROX 1400' DOWN RWY AND BEGAN A NORMAL DECELERATION. I DECIDED NOT TO USE THE HI-SPEED TURNOFF AS A TURNOFF FARTHER DOWN THE RWY WAS CLOSER TO OUR PARKING GATE. AS WE PASSED THE HI-SPEED, THE CTLR ASKED IF WE COULD HOLD SHORT OF 27R. THIS STARTLED ME AND I BEGAN HEAVY BRAKING. RATHER THAN SAY WE COULD HOLD SHORT AND THEN NOT BE ABLE, I HAD THE COPLT REPLY WE ARE NOT SURE. THE CTLR THEN TOLD ANOTHER AIR CARRIER WHO HAD LANDED ON 27R TO HOLD SHORT OF OUR RWY AND FOR US TO EXPEDITE THROUGH THE INTXN. SINCE WE HAD ALMOST CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP BY THIS TIME, WE HAD TO COME OUT OF REVERSE AND TRY TO ACCELERATE. I AM ANGRY AT MYSELF FOR NOT BEING MORE AWARE OF THE SITUATION. AFTER LNDG I WAS MORE CONCERNED ABOUT A SMOOTH DECELERATION AND A TURNOFF THAT WOULD EXPEDITE OUR TAXI TO THE GATE THAN I WAS ABOUT THE OPERATIONAL REQUIREMENT TO HOLD SHORT OF AN INTERSECTING RWY. SOMETIMES WE GET TOO FAR AHEAD OF OURSELVES. A NATURAL THING IN A PROFESSION THAT REQUIRES US TO STAY WELL AHEAD OF OUR AIRPLANE.
