  1. Am I mixing it up with Scioscia, or was Nevin a “sabes are nerd stuff” type guy too
  2. I never heard that they offered to reopen it
  3. The hiring process for them was 2 weeks in which their consultants went over coaches and GMs, they hired Poles and 3 days later flus was the guy. Just hard for me to believe in 3 days Poles was like “this is my guy” staying with him after last season though, it’s killer. It counted on one thing, flus becoming something he had never shown us that he could do, be the team CEO that he talked about. He put on a defensive show at the end of last season against some bad opponents and they still lost games they should have won. Just damning “evidence” of him getting better
  4. Every game since Flus was fired seems like it has even more magnified Poles mistakes. It’s weird because I really do believe he was railroaded into the Flus hire and I believe he should have been afforded the opportunity to hire his own guy, but the things he has promised to do he simply has not done. If QB was his focus it was quite the decision to send his prize out there this season behind this line. oh yea, the lynchpin OL that he HAD TO HAVE Ryan Bates went on the IR this weekend after playing I think less than a quarter this season. My dude Poles was an offensive lineman his entire life and it feels like he has never seen one ever
  5. As shitty of a season as it has been, Caleb is about to be top five bears passing season ever. Possibly top two if he really goes off
  6. Huge difference in mispronouncing someone’s name who you have never met or have only read the name, and a hall of fame basketball player at the university for which you are covering a game. I also have to call people for my job, and sometimes I say it wrong and I’m corrected, and then I am trusted to say it correctly for the rest of the call. I don’t have a producer in my ear telling me things nor do I have game notes handed to me prior to the game that have the “things needed to know” for my call. It’s not the same and the thing is, this isn’t one of our posters pointing this out. This is awful announcing, and they are doing it because Schriffen had similar stuff happen last season. He is definitely under a microscope and at this point only he can help himself out
  7. Complain about the product or complain about the complainers. Everyone is bitching, amirite. anywho, thanks for adding to the thread that you don’t like, giving it more life
  8. Pretty sure Manny was the pickup guy in the airport but he screwed it up. I can’t find any stories specifically about that situation, only aggregated stories about Sosa
  9. You save maybe 5-7M and they start fresh with a new player that has a similar skill set, it’s the best I can do
  10. That implies he is in on the bit and actually the funniest one of the bunch to which I highly disagree
  11. It’s kind of funny he says never broke any laws, the whole money/drug drop off pick up thing in the airport was definitely illegal lmao
  12. This sucks for every one of the people losing their jobs, and it sucks that the current state of the Sox gave them an extremely easy and accepted scapegoat well done all around, owners of sports and media. You got your pound of flesh, again
  13. No, the Bears know that the politicians in Chicago favor the team playing and staying in Chicago, so the owners and Warren are focusing their efforts there because it is much more sympathetic than Springfield, which has just flat out shut the door in their faces
  14. SUCCESSFUL BAIT AND SWITCH BY ME
  15. I think his age and knees knocked him out. It was an extremely strange scenario that the Falcons put themselves in, and the base salary in the next 3 seasons is 27M/35M/35M, and cap hits are 40M/57M/57M. Money that could have been used to build around Penix if you really believed in him
  16. Gonna be honest about that last sentence. Feels like there are a lot of people that are asking themselves right now that very question “why bother?” And they don’t know. every single one of us knows Lucy is gonna pull the football as soon as it’s time to get out the check book
  17. Some people read the responses that provide the answers to the questions that you are so outraged about
  18. Until next week when he needs a new sound bite
