This game is enough to make me think that we may, indeed, miss the playoffs. And yes, Lovie *should* be fired if we do miss the playoffs after starting 7-1. You can't feel too confident going against GB next week. People were acting like I was crazy with the Lovie talk and the 'offense is a joke' mantra. Holy overgeneralizations, Batman. Your quote was 'The Bears offense is not horrible.' Yeah, and it still is; my response is based on you inexplicably thinking people called you crazy for talking about Love when EVERYONE has been talking about whether he stays or goes. Hell, our discussion about the Bears' offense was one of the few times I DIDN'T act like you were meatball and actually talked to you. And no, I don't think it's horrible. It's little more than a semantics argument, but to me a horrible offense is one that has to be overhauled. An offense that is set at QB, #1 WR, potentially #2 WR and at RB isn't horrible. They need serious help at the OL and at TE and I'd love to see an upgrade from Tice, but you're talking like the thing needs to be burnt down and rebuilt.

Gould is hurt?

Mmmm, the Chicago specialty.

I love it.

Nah. Their new overlords don't give a [expletive] and will spend whatever it takes. I'd love to be at a point with the Cubs where I wouldn't worry about a missed playoff shot because the owners are determined to be in it no matter what and they have the money to back it up. Though ridiculousness aside, this does bum me out because this is sort of what I was envisioning when the Cubs were up for sale. Obviously I was picturing something with a little more...finesse than what the Dodgers are swinging, but still; what could have been. -
There's nothing but joy there, which is the Kryptonite of Kyles everywhere. Oh, it must be delightful.
-
I'll bet in Dodgers land they don't even need crappy message boards filled with Kyles because everything is great.
-
It wouldn't be that hard to modify Cubs gear into Dodgers gear. I say we defect.

I know this is a joke but my mom asked me recently who Tim Brown's Heisman competition was in 1987 and I was shocked to see a Holy Cross player finished third. That's never happening again. i agree, no one is ever talking to their mom about who got third in he 87 heisman voting again. Delightful.

Only part? That is the [expletive] dream.

Please specify it as your "child rapey school," because just "rapey school" could mean, well, any of them.

NFL teams simply do not let coaches just hang around on the last year of their contract; they either fire them before that year or extend them before it. I'm not justifying it, but I'd be completely stunned if they started next season simply as the final season of his current contract. It just doesn't happen.
-
And yet despite that they're still in a position with a very good record where several of those wins are hinged on the offense. The defense had an amazing run, but to say they're in the position they're in only because of the defense is simply incorrect. A truly horrible offense is an offense devoid of talent, and that's clearly not the case with the Bears. Their offense is severely flawed, but that means they can't maximize on the talent they have, not that it's just a shitty offense. I've been hugely critical of the Bears offense this year, but from the standpoint that they're wasting the really, really good talent they have in there thanks to a nightmare of an OL and a terrible OC as opposed to just saying "IT SUCKS!!!!"
-
Why is there no comparison? You're talking like their 2010 season like the Super Bowl win went back and wiped out the actual regular season and replaced it with one played by an incredible team.
-
The Bears offense has some major flaws, but it's not "horrible." A truly "horrible" offense and the team wouldn't be at 8-4 right now. raw's point was that dropping something like "so far the Bears haven't beaten any teams above .500 this season" is a really simplistic and flawed way to look at the team and the season.
-
Played like a god! Stacked with talent! 10-6, baby! It's like science. But sure, let's cry instead. Argue your point, meatball.
-
Roll away, li'l meatball.
-
Well that's a weird response. You'd think that if your point was so ironclad you wouldn't have to try to explain it away like that. Just pretend like it doesn't happen when someone makes you look like the mook meatball you are.
-
So you're...agreeing with him?

This thread was worth it.

Yes, I understand with or without your ethnic food metaphors, but thank you.

They have King Felix, Tijuana Walker, and I think 1-2 more really good pitching prospects. We can forget about any of them for DeJesus. noted Just FYI.
