This plan worked well with Vaughn who was move somewhat kind of a little bit more proven...I guess #green
-
He is to the White Sox like Centers are for the Bears nw OC's. A guy the new guy likes.
-
Football is as much about coaching as it is players. The Bears have failed miserably in evaluating Eberflus and their stupid defense first mantra. Idiots, the whole lot of them.

Sox looking at building in South Loop
Harry Chappas replied to southsider2k5's topic in Pale Hose Talk
They would love the GRATE then Jerry can move to the Neverland place that will not support his failing endeavor. He can take the White Sox name with him if he'd like. Start anew and I will back them. -
I still believe Kevin Warren's time in the BIG 10 is as much to do with Harbaugh as the McCAskey's idiocy running a football team.
-
The likelihood of them going 9-8 is on par with Chris Getz saving a year of learning by a new GM. If everything went right they were not finishing the year 4-4 based on the quality of opponents. They needed to be 6-3 at this point to maybe make the playoffs.

While not fully his fault his first free agent signing failed his physical I believe.

I view the Bears never aiming big for anyone or anything as going on the cheap. Yes their facilities have been upgraded to NFL standards but what gives the appearance of them being more fiscally aggressive than Reinsdorf? Kevin Warren hasn't really done anything as President of football operations to lead me to believe that he is a force for this organization. My guess with him is that his time with the BIG had a role in Harbaugh not coming to the Bears. That was a move that I am not certain was ever even investigated by the Bears. The fact Eberflus was hired, retained and remains while the OC role he has hired twice (now third one in less than three full years) was just handed to a less qualified candidate then the prior two Bozos. Getsy's tenure in LV was less than Waldron's shows me how bad a hire he was. Little has changed under Warren/Poles compared to the prior clown cars. If not for Carolina maybe being a worse organization, I am not certain Poles and Warren are any better than the other failures that arrive daily to 1920 Football Drive. Eberflus should have never been hired and certainly never been retained. They will end up 4-13 this year and will be starting over again. They will hire a new staff of cheap inexperienced field staff and hope it goes well. Hiring Waldron over Kingsbury was to protect their ego and pocketbook.
-
The parallels with the Bears, White Sox and Bulls when it comes to simply hiring the cheapest candidates available is really something to behold.
-
That is kind of missed in this comparative. Pennix, Daniels and Nix seemed to be in college for ever.
-
The team has been run by the accountant (Phillips) and ticket manager (George) for the last 15 years. You wonder why they seem to be behind in the times.
-
Bloom is quickly fading off of the Poles rose. If not for the Carolina trade the Bears are no better off today then they when he took the job. The Alpha coach was a conversation yesterday and will continue to pop up that Warren and Poles are not hiring the correct person due to their insecurities and/or fiscal restraint. Ben Johnson is going to want $12M. Virginia and George are not going for that. The next coaching regime will be the same cast of cheap dolting yes men.
-
Eberflus has shown a great ability to lose games. I don't see them even competing in most of the remaining games. That offensive line is beyond bad.
-
This is what a team quitting on a coach looks like. They are not winning anothergame and Flus winning percentage could end up lower then Grifol's.
-
What makes you think Warren is all that bright? His relationahip with Harbaugh from BIG days kept him from hiring him as head coach. The Bears are no more a professioanly run organization than the Bulls or White Sox. Flus hired Getsy and Waldron. If not for Carolina trade Poles is exposed as being no organization builder. I feel bad for Williams.
-
Saw this on X and it makes sense to me. They do not scheme guys open. Their scheme seems abysmal.

Kennan was needed but became redundant when Rome was available in the draft.

Ryan Fuller Hired as Director of Hitting
Harry Chappas replied to DirtySox's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Why at 34 was he available? -
100% but not sure there is much value there. Not sure win they even get to 7 wins.
-
Kmet's usage is no surprise. He is deemed the 5th option in the shiney car offense that due to a lack of an O line does nto work. Kmet's usage went up when Allen was out. Now we need to get Allen the ball over Kmet. I think Poles is good at his job but I am not yet certain. The trade with Carolina is awesome but in reality they wanted to see if Fields could progress that year. Other then that what has he really accomplished? His coaching hires seem poor at best and this team could end up 5-12 really quick this year. Totally neglecting the O line is a huge offense and then handing out picks for bad WRs (allen and Claypool). Waldron is awful as was Getsy.

Venable named new Sox Manager-per Merkin
Harry Chappas replied to Vote4Pedro's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Looking beyond what we know already about the ineptitude of the White Sox and how bad the last three years have been, the thing with this hire...if these are true is that He was the heir apparent to Bochy in Texas Turned down the Mets last off season leaving Cohen out of the conversation, Sterns is guy you want to work for Has worked with Theo - best baseball mind around and would assume a mentor Resume that checks all major boxes His connections and resume lead me to hope there was a plan laid out to him as to why this job is worth taking. Sure it is all pie in the sky s%*# that I look at and hope I can be a fan again but unlike Grifol I don't have to squint really hard to like this hire. Yes there are only 30 of these jobs but I think we can assume he was in a position like Ben Johnson with the Lions in that he can have his pick and he isn't risking it without a plan. Is there a sale? A move? A new Stadium? Why would he take this job? The Bears job will be highly sought after, the White Sox, not so much. Maybe I just want to fan again -
CHSN to be available on antenna in Chicago
Harry Chappas replied to Heads22's topic in Pale Hose Talk
I have Directv stream and get the channel but don't watch it and haven't for a while. Just need to go in and cancel...I think I already did. -
Because he does not believe in analytics and is a meathead that is being pushed by TLR. There is no rationale reason for him to be considered and shows how obtuse the organization is.

Harry Chappas replied to Heads22's topic in Pale Hose Talk
At some point I will invest in the antenna but no time soon. The Phil Nevin era doesn't intrigue me, nor the Bulls and the Blackhawk's still stinks.
