  1. I think once it became clear how willing they were to tank it was always inevitable they would do it again. I never thought it would happen so quickly. But they are craven people happy to exploit fan goodwill
  2. In terms of why they may have passed on certain free agents, or as it relates to the draft? Or both? I think these guys are definitely a little too married to the scheme fit storyline. It reminds me of the bears giving away Greg Olson because their OC didn't bother with tight ends. It's not good roster management to only focus on guys who specifically do what you do. Coordinators come and go. Schemes change. Talent is what makes the difference.
  3. Jed explicitly said the primary motivation behind their moves this year was to dissuade people from believing they were hoarding cash. They obviously aren’t trying to win the division or contend, but they are trying to stop the bleeding of fan interest. If you can win more games then you lose this season you can start convincing the fans you might actually be good one day again.
  4. whoa boy, these ads sure are something. One in between each post, side bar and bottom
  5. Hawks losing again to the devils. Still way too many fans in attendance
  6. Yes, especially for something like the offseason thread. It was initially a general roster turnover thread that transformed into the offseason thread and then some heathen admin renamed it this clunky nonsense.
  7. Maybe I'm just dumb but I cannot figure out how to change the thread title. Is there an option to make this happen at least for the person who started the thread? @Brock Beauchamp
  8. there is a bears specific discussion going on
  9. I had them at 79 but chalked this one up to a loss so officially 80 win territory now
  10. Holy horsefeathers I love the pitch clock. Game changer
  11. Yes I read that. Somebody not wanting to spend $220 on three tickets to opening day says a lot about the lack of interest in this team. In years past it would have sold out and tickets would be going for well over $100 on the secondary market. Right now there are tons of tickets available for under $100. You can get 4 together at $59/each. Dynamic pricing makes it very annoying to plan a trip. But it's the lack of interest in the team that is making all these tickets available day of. If Cubs fans were excited about this team, those tickets would be gone or much more expensive.
  12. It’s opening day and there’s a ton of tickets available at under $100. It’s not the fault of dynamic pricing. The indifference to this roster is palpable.
  13. Am I the only one that played for like Bob’s Hardware and the F.O.P. or some bike store when I was a kid? I always hated the kids who got to play for real team names
  14. Halfway through the first game thread post the text went from white letters on dark background to black letters on dark background
  15. They are desperate to stop the bleeding with fan support. Jed has said the acquisitions they made were as much about proving they aren’t hording cash as for baseball purposes.
