  1. I do find it funny. I'm sure the formerly employed hosts do as well. McNeil out indefinitely with a paralyzed vocal chord
  2. Some very weird dudes in that forum. Extremely bizarre. Really great. They have a 612 page thread devoted to Julie, the update anchor and weekend host. Odd site, but they still have some interesting posters there.
  3. Tiger with the highest recorded swingspeed on Tour this year today at 129 MPH. Short game looks really good. A lot of players bunched near the lead, but he’s got a great chance to win tomorrow.
  4. I don't think he was their top rated CB. He had the top rated single game of any CB (against Cincinnati), but looks like he was 22nd overall. https://www.profootballfocus.com/nfl/players/kyle-fuller/8649 Also, yes there are plenty of good CBs. Malcolm Butler, Bashaud Breeland, Trumaine Johnson, and EJ Gaines, who are all similar level CBs last year. But I'd take Fuller over all of them due to age (slightly younger than all except a week older than Gaines) and we already know his fit in this defense unlike the others. I also love this CB class in the top 60 picks so I'd certainly be willing to double up at the position, with or without Fuller. That being said, Fuller will be back on a franchise tag. Could have sworn Mully said Fuller was the top-rated CB last year
  5. Fuller not expected to sign a long-term deal. Don’t know if that’s Kyle’s choice or the Bears’. Had an up and down career, but PFF’s top-rated CB last year. Any good FAs if they don’t franchise tag him?
  6. White Sox to WGN 720
  7. Never seen an in-season switch like this before
  8. 670 trying to land the Bulls. Sox to either 1000 or 720. My, how WGN Radio has fallen. http://www.robertfeder.com/2018/01/30/robservations-bulls-shooting-land-score/
  9. Bulls don't draw good TV numbers?
  10. Parent company of WLS 890 wants out of umprofitable Sox and Bulls radio contracts. ““As part of our operational turnaround, we have been focused on taking proactive steps to address unprofitable areas of our business,” Cumulus Chief Executive and President Mary G. Berner said in a statement. “We are taking this action because the economic terms of these legacy contracts guarantee that we lose money and, as such, continuing them in their current form is not in Cumulus’ best interests. … We will continue to take the necessary steps to strengthen our competitiveness and position Cumulus for continued profitability.”” http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/breaking/ct-spt-white-sox-bulls-radio-contracts-20180119-story.html
  11. If DeFilippo gets the job and Fangio is gone, who is a good DC candidate? Rank the best openings that DeFilippo could choose: Lions, Bears, Colts.
  12. Why? Harbaugh is a rah-rah college coach whose shtick wears thin on professionals. He wears thin, but he gets results. Three straight NFC Championship games with the 49ers.
  13. Yeah, probably not happening, but if Harbaugh is on their radar, it’s the only way I see that occuring
  14. I would love for Fangio to stay with the Bears, but apart from the Bears bringing in Jim Harbaugh (I'd throw $10 million per year and an ownership stake at him), he's pretty much out?
  15. Forgot to mention him. Has done wonders in Philly with Wentz, but has little play calling experience. Only called plays last year in Cleveland and one year at San Jose State.
  16. What offensive coaching prospects are at the top of the list? Pat Shurmur, Jim Harbaugh, Josh McDaniels, Pete Carmichael, Matt LaFleur, and throw in Dave Toub as a ST candidate. Hub was saying that there's new rules for coaches who are in the playoffs. I think he said you can hire a coach now who is still coaching with his current team or something like that instead of interviewing him and waiting for his team to lose.
  17. Vance Joseph is staying according to Elway
  18. if he knew he was breaking down, why would he hurry to come back and play for a coach who was running players into the ground? Pax almost killed Vinny when he gave too many minutes to Noah coming off his injury. Thibs would have tried to overuse Derrick, but Pax and Reinsdorf would have shut that down.
  19. He was soft after his first injury though. Doctors cleared him to play weeks before the playoffs, yet Rose refused to play. I like you better when you're gone for months at a time I liked you better when you made arguments
  20. He was soft after his first injury though. Doctors cleared him to play weeks before the playoffs, yet Rose refused to play.
  21. http://www.reactiongifs.com/r/ceob.gif Rose is a goober, but calling a dude out for realizing he is basically now useless as a basketball player because injuries destroyed what made him valuable in the first place as being "soft" is super meatball-y. As opposed to, what, he hangs around milking name-recognition contracts for a few more years? That's somehow a better choice that would make him seem less "soft?" He’s quit on his team three times now. He’s on a one-year, vet minimum deal so he’s not milking anyone. He’s two weeks away from being back. Try to win a title this year and then retire.
  22. How’s that lifetime contract working out for ya, Adidas? Rose quit on the Bulls after his ACL injury, went AWOL on the Knicks last year, and might retire this year. His injuries have been incredibly sad and unlucky, but he’s still soft mentally.
  23. Gordon Hayward wrote a Facebook post where he says the Cleveland Cavs Doctor braced him as they popped his ankle back into place right there on the court. Wow. https://www.facebook.com/notes/gordon-hayward/in-an-instant/729977353869385/
  24. Bears sorta tossing around the idea of bringing Kevin White back off of IR. So he's healthy enough in the next few weeks to come off because I haven't heard any updates on him? With his luck, he'll get hurt again and be out again next year too. http://www.thetenyardline.com/2017/10/31/bears-have-tossed-around-the-idea-of-bringing-back-kevin-white-off-injured-reserve/
  25. Fox isn't trying to develop Trubisky as his #1 priority. He's trying to save his job by winning and Trubisky's development will take a back seat. With that said, the receiving core stinks and when you are up by two touchdowns, I don't disagree with Fox's gameplan after that one bit.
