  1. Briggs' ego keeps getting in the way. He's done with the Bears. What kind of fool leaves their $100K sports car along the Edens @ 2AM? What the hell does something that happened 8 years ago have to do with anything currently happening (or more likely, not happening)? Stop being an enabler. Briggs was never a leader. please change brandon's title to "non-leader enabler"
  2. these announcers are confusing themselves in the playoff
  3. Briggs' ego keeps getting in the way. He's done with the Bears. What kind of fool leaves their $100K sports car along the Edens @ 2AM? A smart enough fool that doesn't want to deal with a DUI.
  4. Looks to be nothing but a couple retweets "that way" could easily mean Lexington, KY here: [tweet] [/tweet] While here is only acknowledges somebody who says it is 55 days to kickoff. [tweet] [/tweet]
  5. haha the warning is right on. I was just going to comment before you added that. It sounds like the guy is going to provide analysis, but he talks about the fact that he moved positions as some sort of proof he can adjust, and getting into fights means he cares.
  6. Dude hit Schwarber's mitt on the backswing. Backswing?
  7. Yeah, he sucks, but he did what he was asked there.
  8. It looked more out live than in replay. Surprised he called him safe the first time.
  9. I just realized that this post is a great allegory for Coomer's play-by-play. I feel your pain. Luckily I'm watching. They need to replace the entire booth. Pay has slipped and if he's taking innings off it makes it unlistenable. I wish they would stop trying to emulate santo because despite being loved and genuinely passionate, he actually wasn't any good at the technical aspects of the job. There has to be a poor mans Len out there for radio.
  10. I had a blast there once. Best part was cubahawk chopping in those khaki wearing racists chubby faces.
  11. [tweet] [/tweet] Does Baker know something or is he assuming?
  12. I think there is a lot of upside too, but I'm betting against it being achieved. I'm betting on closer to 2013 than 2014. Based strictly on yards/game, the Bears were 8th and 21st for those years so they could just be slightly above average overall and meet your criteria. I'm guessing they can be a top 12 offense, and then maybe bounce to a top 20-25 defense.

  14. How bad do you think people are thinking? I get the feeling people see 7-9 or 8-8. Do you think better than that? I think they will be a little better, mostly on defense, but too many hurdles to be in the real hunt of the 9/10 win playoff teams. Beauty on the NFL is that even a 8-8 type team is usually in the hunt late into the season, so it makes for invested football viewing for most of the season. All those mediocre 8-8 Lovie years left us with only a couple games that didn't have playoff implications. Maybe if those 8-8 teams are battling for a bad division titles, but aren't most of the wild card winners 10 win teams? If you are actually an 8-8 team and aren't in a crappy division you may be technically in the race but it's usually behind multiple teams and with no real hope. Last year's AFC had four 9-7 teams that didn't qualify and the NFC had a 10 win team that I believe was eliminated before the final week. The year before there were six 8-8 teams that all missed the playoffs. If you are on the way to 8-8 your playoff implications depend heavily on stupid tie breakers that usually weed out most teams before the end anyway.
  15. Damning with faint praise?

  17. He's making his bitching count.
