  1. How are the dumb voters going to justify giving someone else the gold glove this season?
  2. He hasn't played a snap of meaningful football yet. You get nothing
  3. Glennon is truly one of the most bafflingly short-sighted signings in Bears history Uh, no? And I hate him but this is just a really strange statement. Nothing baffling or short sighted about it. That much money for a QB who sucks and when you were going to draft a QB anyways is baffling and shortsighted.
  4. Yeah I see all the articles saying how well Glennon played. It looked to me that he played OK but was again completely outplayed by Trubiaky. The clock issues and fumbled snap aside. There is a huge gap in talent and ability. Glennon is truly one of the most bafflingly short-sighted signings in Bears history
  5. Make him Donkey Teeth's personal catcher
  6. My apologies.....you guys clearly made the better choice in watching this instead of Donkey Teeth
  7. well that's simply not true
  8. Wait, are you guys seriously watching Bears preseason football instead of the Cubs? Please tell me you're at least flipping
  9. This Chevy commercial they play during EVERY SINGLE commercial break on MLB.TV would be a lot more accurate if one of the Ford Truck dudes whipped it out and pissed on the Chevy truck after the big reveal
  10. I am a fan of the Happ interview meme in the dugout
  11. Baez just missed two hangers. Pitcher got lucky
  12. Recent history shows the NFL is more likely to make hitting more punitive (while increasing the body armor) than it would be to remove body armor and hope the players avoid their own injuries They can try that all they want; it won't work and won't stave off the inevitable. If you take away the helmets, some nut job like Vontaze Burfict will kill someone on the field and then the NFL would be screwed
  13. Prince Fielder got $24M to not play this year, and has another $72M coming over the next three seasons And he is still more valuable than Pujols, who has between -1 and -2 WAR by both B-R and Fangraphs. I know it's been brought up before but man we dodged a bullet in 2011. Indeed we did
  14. He has 17 for August, 2 shy of the record for most HR in August, and 3 shy of Sammy's record of 20 in any month
  15. But never in a million years would the NFL go with LESS head protection, even if it fundamentally changed the game for the better They're going to have to do something drastic to change the game. There's no way around it. Recent history shows the NFL is more likely to make hitting more punitive (while increasing the body armor) than it would be to remove body armor and hope the players avoid their own injuries
  16. Get rid of helmets. Seriously. Play with rugby-style padding, and they'd learn quickly that an improper tackle is bad news for everyone involved. Still a lot of contact, but full-on head-first bone-crunching tackles would be a thing of the past almost immediately. But never in a million years would the NFL go with LESS head protection, even if it fundamentally changed the game for the better
  17. Julian Edelman blew his knee out. I'm sure the Patriots will find some unknown Division 3 player to show up and be an all pro
  18. Prince Fielder got $24M to not play this year, and has another $72M coming over the next three seasons
  19. If you drew a Venn diagram of Trump's base and Cardinal fans, would you even need two circles?
  20. ESPN's box score is jacked up. It says Zobrist is 0 for 15
  21. brawl/slapfight video: [tweet] [/tweet] There were some weird camera angles in that TV feed
  22. This is the most excited I've been for a Penn State season for years.
  23. Anthony Rizzo, by Bryan Shaw in Game 7 of the WS? Russell got the free pass 2 batters later, after the Zobrist double Yep, I looked right past that. Good call
