  1. It's going to come down to an intense online chess match, a $2,000 winner-take-all all online gambling festival, or duel with .32 caliber single-shot pistols and 20 paces. You pick.
  2. That's a bold strategy, Cotton. Let's see if it pays off. ------------ I would have been all in Yamamoto, but maybe not for the years he got. I get Ohtani and Soto, but They should have been more transparent with Ohtani. I hope like hell they target Soto next year, but he's going to go off in the Bronx.
  3. Yes. On top of all that, the DC disappeared and they fired their RB coach for likely spreading rumors. That shows a lack of leadership ability in the head coach. He's ultimately responsible for all that. They cannot put another QB in a situation where the head coach is a potential lame duck. If they let go of Fields, they need to clean the slate.
  4. Save that for October, not the playoffs, but the regular season. I love what they've done. But they're already closing in on a win-ceiling in a typical year. It's tough to improve on a 100-win season. At the same time, who cares, right? This is MLB, make the best team you can. I wish the Cubs would try to do that sometime.
  5. Fields is an incredible athletic talent, but he’s not a great QB. Maybe he could have become great with better coaching, but it’s too late to find out.
  6. There are so many variables at work 1. Fields wasn’t their guy. 2. they didn’t try for a year or more 3. Poles and Fluss are tied together. If Poles gets rid of Fluss his clock starts ticking. 4. the play calling, chicken or egg? 5. the draft 6. what is going on with the move? 7. Fluss had to become the DC because his DC went AWOL. I’m leaning toward everyone stays but Fields. But it’s the Bears, so not one bit shocked if everyone stays and they load up on picks, including one of the 2nd tier QBs.
  7. This game was not as close as the score. The Bears got dominated.
  8. That’s gotta be a penalty
  9. This game has zipped by.
  10. Gotta put the brisket in the basket. Field goals won’t get it done.
  11. Fields is not a starter
  12. If they do it, I hope it's not out of necessity (big league club needs relievers/he's not a starter).
  13. Good work! I don’t necessarily think running into outs is always bad. I love the idea of forcing action.
  14. should's back is breaking in that paragraph
  15. lol, light on the Cubs end. Josh Bell is washed and expensive, we'd be doing them a massive favor and at the same time not upgrading the position. It's a terrible trade for the Cubs.
  16. Am I crazy for hoping they give Mervis a real chance?
  17. I don't think Alonso is available for a trade.
  18. My bets: Eberflus - stays Getsy - Goes Fields - I don't have a clue. Not a clue. If it were me, he'd go. He's a backup QB.
  19. there would have to be something really unexpected to happen at the combine for that prediction to come true.
  20. Then you are forcing players to take whatever the offer is from the teams.
  21. Still not getting it. They aren't doing chemistry. They have six long weeks in ST to date and share recipes.
  22. I think you are assuming that they are not preparing for the season on their own. They don't need directions.
