I love the NFL Draft too much to not pay attention. I've been focusing on potential mid round targets for the Bears. But you're right, it does feel a little strange - a strangeness that I'll gladly get used to if this keeps up. :)

I have little interest in NBA..not real basketball.. Even players coming here from Europe say it is MUCH EASIER to score here.. I used to get in free at Bulls games the first few years,,then the made playoffs..but sank away again..

I watch Hockey cause of all the years invested in the Blachawks as a kid..and then the Stanley Cup wins..

I am enjoying AAF football..entertaining..and decent games..

But yeah..I was thinking just two days ago how weird it felt to not be looking at mock drafts..etc..

We got our #1 pick..Mack.!
Let those losers taking 1st round dreams..worry..
Picks..we already got ours..

Basketball hasn't changed. Traveling has always happened and the stars have always gotten the calls. The guys can just shoot better now. They actually work on their games now in the offseason.

Love the eye in the sky for AAFL. We need that in the NFL.

Glad the Bulls suck I am a 76ers Fan.

Yep, strangely quiet in fan forums as well.

Once we get past the most obvious topics; Amos and Callahan, cap space, Robbie Gould (and that seem done) all we can do is speculate a bit on FA and look to the horizon as far as the draft.

Tough to know what positions Pace will emphasize in the draft 'til we get through at least the first two phases of FA and know what our roster looks like. Educated guesses is about all we can do.

I can't recall and offseason this quiet in a very long time and maybe that's good because I'm sure Pace, Nagy and their staffs haven't been hibernating. I actually expect some surprises before all is said and done.

Now this is true. If we've learned anything about Pace, its that he is always scheming, planning, and making moves.

I wouldn't be surprised if he pulls off some kind of move either. Maybe an unexpected FA acquisition or maybe finding a way to move higher up in the draft.

I used to be a pretty decent bowler back in the day. And now in my old age, I need to exercise more, so I've been trying to get back into the swing of it for a while now. This offseason, I'm focusing on it more and improving, which is fun. :-)

I found this youtube channel that anyone with an attraction to the PBA should appreicate. It's a must see if you're into that sorta thing.

Any other bowlers here?
Mikefive's theory: The only time you KNOW that a sports team player, coach or management member is being 100% honest is when they're NOT reciting "the company line".

Go back to leather helmets, NFL.
