  1. I think likely back is inaccurate
  2. Not anywhere near is an odd claim. I get you can read between the lines a little on the statement but "we support Marc in his decision." makes it pretty clear, at least in regards to any immediate change. It was pregame, they weren't going to fire him then. My comment about sooner was related to trestman being unavailable to media this week. Perhaps the pathetic mnf effort accelerated events.

  4. Wishful thinking or confusion? http://www.chicagofootball.com/2014/12/15/chicago-bears-general-manager-phil-emery-breaks-silence-on-aaron-kromer-comments/az3wmc2/ This article uses "respect" a lot. Talks about the system and doesn't mention disagreement (which IMO would be silly to say unless you were saying it to announce his termination). I don't know what Chicago football is but looks like the writer presented it differently than the Trib guys that mentioned it pregame. They were less willing to treat it as ho hum speak but rather read between the lines with a fm talking about the coach deciding not to punish.
  5. Who is Chris deluca?
  6. I don't understand what he is saying. We all agree he pitched really well for one season. Pointing out that he pitched really well doesn't tell me anything more.
  7. Honesty how much hate can you build up for a team with few expectations that was out of contention by mid-April? How many 1997 Cubs games did you watch after Memorial Day. Of the ones that you did watch, how much emotion did you feel when things went bad in the games? I hate pointessly horrible seasons a lot more than I hate good seasons that end poorly.
  8. lol it's humorous no doubt but he's not making up hate for the 2004 Cubs. I'll read it again tomorrow when I'm not drunk though. It's not hard to find similar examples though. Just admit it's not a black and white issue and we can move on. Edit: and not in a "sure it's not a black and white issue if you are a middle school whatever you said before" way If you are saying for sure that 2004 was one of the two most hated teams in Chicago sports history, the black/whiteness of the talk is on you.
  9. Once In a sustainable fashion (in terms of the way he pitched). What does that mean? Throwing sliders at an all time high rate?
  10. The entire offense has deceptively good numbers(unless that changed). Doesn't mean their season hasn't sucked.
  11. There was an interception tonight that hit both of his hands.
  12. Haha brilliant. [expletive] Colts going from Peyton Manning to Andrew Luck. Well timed dump.
  13. Everyone needs to shut up Yeah, Black Unicorn trying to deflect attention from his own [expletive] season. Am I missing something? I know he has some maddening things he does but he's had a pretty kick ass season statistically speaking. Uh, yeah you've missed the entire season if you think his has been kickass. In other news, emery spoke before the game about how much of a joke the kromer situation was. Made it clear he wasnt happy with apology or the fact that the apology is why the news leaked in the first place. Noted that punishment was trestman's call despite not agreeing with it.
  14. But del rio willingly employed tucker
  15. Grudges probably thinks cutler should do all the press conferences. Emery made it clear he wasnt happy with how trestman handled kromer situation. He may be gone tomorrow.
  16. Yep, it's been blatant all game.
  17. Hahahaha. The saints have done nothing but play against the most dysfunctional team in the league.
  18. He was a first round pick because he was so ready for action. It's not about upside with him. If he can't handle 1s that is a problem. If he was supposed to come in and be a shut down corner year one he woulda gone top 5. Slow down there jersey. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Not awful doesn't mean shutdown mr emery apologist

  20. I don't know how I'd feel about this. Might rally the fanbase too much and help Trestman save his job. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk And you don't know how you'd feel?
  21. Cutler has an etiquette problem because he doesn't yell at his teammates enough.
  22. That about covers my feelings on it too I suppose, the front office has earned the benefit of the doubt to me, with pitchers at least. Getting Motte shouldn't interrupt any other plans for the offseason, I just hope that as someone coming off TJS and a crummy season that he has to earn any high leverage time. Haven't they wasted good chunks of change on multiple pitchers, especially relievers?
  23. This is hardly a low risk high reward situation. The risk is very real that you threw away $4.5m on a guy that will provide nothing. The reward is maybe one season of a good reliever.
