    Hey, now, they signed Counsell, didn't they? Come to Wrigley Field and watch him manage, see him sit in the dugout, chew some gum, drink some water.

    Imanaga is definitely the most Cubs plausible of Ohtani, Yamamoto and Imanaga. He's older, won't cost as much in terms of contract length, I'd be OK with Imanaga.
  3. gflore34
    Settling? I knew the THE THRIFTY NICKLE was and is the plan, Ohtani and Yamamoto were never going to happen for the Cubs, not close to the realm of reality. Soto was a far more realistic outcome however, it's no surprise Jed punted.

    I am wondering why the pretty much complete the lack of action on Hoyers' part. What's he waiting for? Every worthwhile FA and trade target to be signed or traded? Is the Cubs biggest off-season move going to be signing a manager?

    Thinking about the draft, if the Bears pick from Carolina holds and they move on from Fields. I don't believe Williams will have any problems with going to the Bears. Their roster is far better than a team who is normally picking number one, Poles will probably further improve upon it. So, there's a good chance they'll have a winning record and be a playoff team. For the record, I believe Poles is taking Maye, he has the pro to-typical QB size which I think is a point of emphasis for Poles.

    They've got a good team, still not in the group with SF, Dallas or Philly but, probably the best of the rest.

    Lions whining about the no call on Fields grounding the ball, I say suck it crybabies. On top of being terrible the Bears have royally fucked over by terrible officiating - the numerous no calls on targeting/roughing of Fields - its about horsefeathers time the Bears got the benefit of terrible officiating.
  8. gflore34
    Poles, Getsy et. al. didn't create Fields' flaws nor can they or anyone else coach his flaws out of him. Best thing they can do is put him in a position to succeed.
  9. gflore34
    Never going to happen, just isn't capable, these must be his last 4.5 games as a Bear.
  10. gflore34
    I think its pretty easy what just transpired is exhibit A for how Fields is a hindrance to winning, take you're chances with Maye or Williams.
  11. gflore34
    This is why Fields needs to be jettisoned from this team, no reason whatsoever for that sack. I'm so done with this clown.

    The old GB pitching staff plus great defense MO again? It may help you have winning record which may result in a playoff appearance but, more than likely we're looking at 83-87 wins not, terrible but, also not a serious WS contending type team. This run prevention approach is as tired as a good running game plus a strong defense is in the NFL. Of course, not surprised, never thought the Cubs were serious contenders for Ohtani, Yamamoto or Soto, knew, somehow, they'd end up this way.
  13. gflore34
    This off season was and is about Chapman, Hoskins, Glasnow type moves, I don't know why so many twisted themselves in knots thinking Ohtani, Yamamoto or even, Soto, for that matter, were even the remotest possibilities for the Cubs.
  14. gflore34
    I also don't believe the Cubs are a realistic option for Yamamoto.
  15. gflore34
    Never thought the Cubs were a realistic option, just glad it wasn't the Dodgers screw them.

    Worked for Pickett last year.
  17. gflore34
    This Illini team is big, smallest player of their starting 5 is 6-6, the height and physicality showed last night and against Rutgers. Loved what Domask did last night, he did what Pickett did to the Illini three times last season.
  18. gflore34
    How would actively trying to keep you're QB from success be rewarded? Doesn't QB success go hand-in-hand with winning? In fact, wouldn't Fields improving shine a positive light on Getsy?
  19. gflore34
    Should have blown out the Lions as well.
  20. gflore34
    Had they lost would it have been enough to finally part from Bear "tradition" and fire Eberflus along with Getsy?
  21. gflore34
    If the Bears draft position remains the same what about the possibility of dealing 1OA to say, the Cardinals, swapping first rounders and getting more 2024/2025 picks. Then taking MHJ at 2 along with drafting Bo Nix at 4?
  22. gflore34
    Raise you're hand if, while watching the game, you knew a Fields 4th quarter TO was imminent, sure things in life are death, taxes and a ball busting Fields 4th quarter TO. This time he though the defense and the Vikings incompetence gave him a chance at redemption.
  23. gflore34
    More QB pressures from Dexter, cheap roughing the passer call -yet, amazingly nothing called on, at least, two head shots on Fields - still, nevertheless, I think Poles can find players. Which is why I'll be OK with him taking a QB, But, the finding a coach part, not so good for Poles, hopefully, Warren can help improve on this aspect.
  24. gflore34
    They'll draft the same type - athletic but, suck at basketball. Pat Williams, Terry, Phillips all the same player, not a one of them can shoot or do anything basketball related well.
  25. gflore34
    Do not understand, the roster is improved however, in many ways Everloss has regressed, which is baffling. I think we're seeing Poles can find players - TJ Edwards is having a pro bowl season, Nate Davis has played well, his draft picks are coming around - By the way, Dexter with less snaps than Carter and, also, not surrounded by elite pass rushers. Zacch Pickens also showed in the last game along with Tyrique Stevenson and when, he comes back Terrell Smith, Braxton Jones. Now Poles needs to find coaches.
