  1. um, its just a 6th round draft pick also considering how bad the bears are at getting a competent QB, they should try just about any avenue available to them So you would have traded for Teddy in addition to the Dalton signing? With Foles still on the roster?
  2. Am I supposed to wish the Bears traded a 6th for Teddy rather than sign Dalton? I've liked Teddy, but I don't think I prefer that to what is happening now. I mean, signing Dalton sucks but whatever, it's just money.
  3. The McCaskeys have literally always owned the Bears. Exactly I don’t think you’ve made the point you think you made.
  4. The McCaskeys have literally always owned the Bears.
  5. If they won’t allow them to trade away the 2023 1st round pick to draft Mac Jones that ain’t handcuffing, that’s just proper oversight.
  6. Turner is getting the second part of the NHL national broadcast, after ESPN picked up the main package.
  7. This is said with minimal research, but it gives the Hawks a ton of cap room going into next year after he goes onto LTIR (a la Seabrook). However, we're still stuck with the Kane/Toews/Keith deals in a flat cap era, and we're probably more than 2 top players away from being an actual contender, so there's probably going to be a decision made between loading up on a couple top FAs and hoping Toews comes back healthy and everything breaks right, but then having to make tough decisions when Dach/Kubalik/Strome/Suter/Hagel/etc come due in a couple years, or just committing to the rebuild, using the space to take on bad contracts for picks, and letting the kids develop (at the risk of Kane/Keith/Toews declining significantly). I think it's clear they are committing to the future and just hoping for the best with the old guys over the next couple years. They aren't going to give it all up for the next Campbell or Hossa.
  8. I'm not whispering under my breath, what are you talking about? viewtopic.php?f=2&t=407&p=270020&hilit=whispers#p270020
  9. There are very few "family owned" baseball teams anymore where the revenue from their baseball team accounts for virtually all of their respective incomes for the year. Nearly all of these people are billionnaires from other ventures in their lives, with various revenue streams. Sure, they'd take a hit from a stoppage, but if they can get what they want out of it that's well worth it in their eyes. None of these people car about the PR hit and they'd probably be more excited about fans hating players than upset about which fans hate them. The players are desperate for something to drive up demand for free agents and will be asking for things the owners won't want to give up. It is possible that players will get desperate for a full year's worth of pay, but they'll cave before the owners.
  10. #CrypticPlayerTweets
  11. Bears announced signing of Marquise Goodwin. did we know about this? I feel like this is new
  12. They're just meh at this point. They're going to have games like this where they can't overcome a couple of mistakes even against a bad team. Of course, Detroit is a bad team that has been playing really well lately, too. They'd recently beaten Carolina twice and Tampa They were meh for much of the season. But they only won ~5 games in March and are 4-6 in their last 10. They're losing to bottom dwellers. I think they suck.
  13. Blackhawks suck?
  14. they have a DH The Cubs have a DH* *DickHead** **Eric Sogard
  15. cordarelle is gone. Fun player, but just didn't make sense to spend that much cap room on a position the league actively looks to make pointless
  16. Well now my response tweet makes less sense
  17. Obviously sellers. They've stated all along its about the future. They acquired a couple guys who are unsigned but should/could compete for jobs in the next year or two. They got draft picks and they got guys they can use as their expansion draft bait. The 2021 team is not at all the focus.
  18. That's a nice trade for Janmark Agree, back of the round pick but still some value in getting another 2nd, especially since they do not have a 3rd.
  19. blackhawks making some trades, they just got patient zero from Vancouver's recent Covid outbreak and got VEgas's 2nd round pick for Janmark.
  20. I'm sure teams will be lined up to give a "solid return" for a 33 year old reliever who hasn't pitched well since 2018 and is earning $16 million. Do you know how baseball works?
