  1. It was a very Angelo type pick, weirdly. Not sure what you mean by that. It was very much an Emery like pick. He likes big freaks of nature and doesn't care about a lack of college playing time or perceived value. When I look at the athletic freaks Emery drafted they showed that freakishness on the field more than Hardins tape. Even a guy like Long showed on the field athleticism, even in limited snaps. Then you have the contingency of non athletic freaks like Jeffrey and Mills. I think it's very accurate to say Emery's idea of athletic freaks is not the same as Angelo's (pool jumper). But beyond the athleticism, oft injured CB converting to safety in third round seems up Angelo's alley. Some combination of those factors was seen a lot during Angelo's run. Angelo was a scheme fitter. He knew what Lovie wanted to do and he drafted guys to fit that scheme, even if they only had value because they could theoretically play in that scheme and were not worthy of being selected. Emery is much more of a "draft athletes and make the coaches find a way to make it work" guy. This was an Emery pick.
  2. How can Onobun make this team? Is he a great blocker or something? I don't know anything about him other than he has become some sort of lightning rod for people who waste time watching preseason games.
  3. Brad Biggs ‏@BradBiggs 19m One source suggests #Bears will keep 4 tight ends and FB Tony Fiammetta. 4th TE could be Onobun or newcomer. We'll see what develops here.

  5. You correlate hockey with concussions and then defend college football? That's smart.
  6. J'Marcus Webb ‏@jmarcuswebb 5m Good bye, Chicago! I gave you 3 years of me. 3 years too many
  7. Jordan Palmer ‏@JwPalms 11m I really appreciate all the kind words from the #Bears fans but I'm headed home today. Crazy biz but appreciative pic.twitter.com/hbbmBw9Kl6
  8. on the gif in this thread? i did it like 5 times and got 5.5 to 6 every time. I just timed it 5 times and got 4.6, 4.6, 4.5, 4.6, 4.7. From Contact to AJ reaching first base, I got: 5.0, 4.9, 5.1, 5.2, 5.1 Christ, what is wrong with the stopwatch on my phone then. Couldn't the computer have something to do with it?
  9. jeez vandy has to have the worst looking chicks in the SEC. That happens whenever you have a school you actually have to apply to get into.

From Contact to AJ reaching first base, I got: 5.0, 4.9, 5.1, 5.2, 5.1 I'm at 4.6 on the on the throw, 4.9 on AJ reaching first base. Maybe truffle didn't account for the exchange rate.
  11. What bar was that? I always liked going to Sheffields, but haven't been in a real long time now.
  12. My advice, drink heavily.
  13. I'm sure they'll have a nice chuckle on the way to another 90 win season.
  14. http://www.nbcchicago.com/blogs/grizzly-detail/chicago-bears-brandon-marshall-221534941.html A schedule seven month follow-up exam does not explain a four day absence and the odd way the Bears handled this.
  15. Is that seriously the rule? That's ridiculous. Why would a college athlete (or anyone) sign autographs for someone else's profit without receiving anything himself? generosity
  16. Not at all. Well, not specifically. I feel like he was probably scheduled not to participate in the last game, and Trestman was aware he may need some time off at some point.
  17. Adam Schefter ‏@AdamSchefter 12m WR Brandon Marshall is upset Bears have not taken his concerns about his hip injury seriously.
  18. That's some really simple math that you're asking help with here... So simple that you weren't able to answer??????
  19. I'd throw Soler into that "making up for lost time" category, considering he turns 22 this winter and has a little over half a season of professional playing time.
