Re: Bears New Stadium Nonsense Repository
They are doing exactly what 99% of owners would do…Also, they’re doing exactly what you would do if you owned the Bears. You assume you know me. Bad assumption. The McCaskey's have been quoted as saying they were going to provide funding for the stadium and it turns out, they're just getting the fa...

Re: Bears New Stadium Nonsense Repository
The team is expected to generate its $2 billion contribution to the project by selling naming rights to the new stadium, selling a far more expensive version of the personal seat licenses that bankrolled the renovation of the existing Soldier Field, and by opening a stadium sportsbook and tapping a...

Re: Rd5, P173: WR Darnell Mooney, Tulane
What I do know is Alt will definitely be there at #1 and a QB will definitely be there at #9 (if you can't tell, I'm not very high on Caleb Williams). What's your beef with Williams? Well, full disclosure....I'm a Notre Dame fan. However, that's not the reason why I don't like him. 1) His stats are...

Re: Rd5, P173: WR Darnell Mooney, Tulane
The Bears don't have a legit LT and with the moves they've made this offseason, I would take Alt over one of these horribly over rated QB's to solidify the OL...but trading Fields basically made it impossible to trade either pick back now without taking a QB at either #1 or #9. They're taking a QB ...

Re: Rd5, P173: WR Darnell Mooney, Tulane
Have any of you ever heard of Joe Alt? No, I never have. He's a football player, I take it? Is he any good? Surefire best LT in the draft and it's not even close. Fashanu from Penn State is pretty good but he's nowhere close to as good as Alt. The Bears don't have a legit LT and with the moves they...

Re: Bears sign Ted Ginn Jr.
Ginn is only a punt returner, no? So, that's not Patterson and I don't think Cohen would lose his duties there. I honestly don't think either should. They're both elite in that respect. To be perfectly honest, the first thing I thought about the Ginn Jr. signing is that he's being brought in specif...

......and one more thing boys. Just saw that Jerry Angelo Jr. just signed Trevor Davis and Tedd Ginn Jr. Davis ran a 4.42 forty and Ginn Jr. ran a 4.28. Both are considered "return specialists," but both play WR. Mooney runs a 4.38, a whopping .04 faster than Davis and a full .1 slower tha...

Poorly.

Pace has shown a willingness to address it. Poorly. But again, I'm not going to get into Jerry Angelo. He's been gone for what, almost a decade now? Again...apples vs. oranges. But apparently, you're all upset simply because Pace didn't make the Williams trade. The only thing I have said that I'm u...

Yogi - You're comparing apples to oranges so I'm going to stop you right there. Pace is not Angelo. No he wasn't. They're both lemons.

Re: Blackhawks fire President John McDonough
I'm not kidding about this....but when the NHL announced that the season was suspended, I said at the time, "Bowman might be the happiest person in the league right now."
I thought he'd be toast if the Hawks missed the playoffs again.

Had Pace traded Leno for Williams (even player swap) and then had the draft he had, I wouldn't be complaining one bit. Instead, the effing 49ers got him and if it's possible, they might be indestructible on offense now....and before disagreeing with that, I will remind you that they just got to the ...

A speedy WR than can take the top of a defense was a need too. You having never heard of someone has no bearing on where a guy was projected.

Re: The Mack Trade
I think the question I have is....
Are there any players out there, currently, on another team that you'd be willing to trade the 2021 and 2022 first rounders for?
Outside of Mahomes, I don't know if anyone out there would be worth two 1st rounders.
