Tony Romo said something about Allen getting hit when he threw the pass but I didn’t really see much contact at all. Maybe affected his follow through but definitely seems like a throw he should have made. And Diggs shouldn’t have Javon Wims’d that deep pass.

Seem to be a lot of NE fans that are interested in Fields. I don’t know if the FO is interested but if they are what do you think of a trade of Fields + 1.09 + a 4th or something for 1.03 and taking MHJ? Is that enough to get the 3rd pick. (Or too much) and is it an efficient enough use of resources?

Same Post Pinned to the top of my feed?

Not sure if this is related but the site isn’t loading correctly since my post.

Just wondering if this is supposed to happen or its an issue with my feed but I have had this post about Imanaga pinned to the top of my feed ever since the signing happened. Given that there are only 2 comments to the article and none in the past couple of weeks it doesn't make sense for me to see that post every single time I view my feed. Am I the only one that has this issue?

I'm so thankful I don't have to cheer for that POS. Would have helped our pen but wanted nothing to do with that booger
-
I just want to know if Caleb's teammates went to his birthday party.
-
Some renderings that were apparently not supposed to be public but were found Think it’s a mistake to not have LF face the river with RF looking at the skyline but other than that not bad at all
-
Thought about starting my own thread for this but this is the catch all Sox thread. WOW this would be amazing if it happened and a game changer for the White Sox imo. 10 minute walk from most of the Loop, easy to get to from office buildings downtown, not a far walk from the CTA and imagine having a backdrop of downtown Chicago. Hope this happens.

Heck it kind of bothers me that we're making roster decisions based on Busch even though he's much farther along in his development cycle. Just feel like we should have more flexibility at 1B in case he struggles. Don't want to be stuck in another situation like last year with Hosmer/Mancini where it becomes a black hole for us. I do like Shaw but I agree we shouldn't be holding spots on the roster for him. That's what a small market club like the Royals would do.
-
I highly doubt all 4 of them will go in the first 7 non-Caleb/Maye picks but if it happened I suppose I'd go BPA, ideally OT or Edge
-
Reported at 6'1 but I bet he's closer to 6 foot even when he's measured. That's really the only reservation I have about Caleb but he's not Bryce Young/Kyler Murray short (both 5'10)
-
OK there it is...Seems like Caleb's agent put that last sentence in there to dispute the fake reports about him refusing to come to the Bears.
-
But Getsy was just the QB coach for GB and didnt call plays. Even Hackett was just implementing LaFleur's system I'm pretty sure
-
1-3 on my predictions so far (Chiefs only win). This is why I don't gamble.
-
An example is Terrelle Pryor who was planning to return to OSU but was suspended for the first 5 games of the season due to tattoo gate at OSU. Instead in the summer he petitioned the NFL to let him enter the supplemental draft and they approved it.
-
Just because I'm getting nervous that the deadline is creeping closer for Caleb, how does your draft plan change if for some reason Caleb stays in college? Do you zero in on Maye, look at the next tier of QBs that might be available at 9 (or a #1 trade down to 5-8), consider sticking with Fields? While I see why people like Maye, I feel like Caleb not declaring would really shake things up.
-
Their arguments are that an offense that fits fields and additional weapons will make Fields a great QB. You know if every other variable is perfect then he’s good.
-
Really want to know what the Bears did to the football gods to piss them off. Love has 19 TD and 1 INT in his last 9 games and a QB rating over 108 in 8 of those 9 games
-
Welp 1 game in and my predictions are way off

Does anyone care about the Bulls season enough to discuss?
UMFan83 replied to UMFan83's topic in Other Sports
I think its like asking why the Beatles broke up. There is not one definitive answer or reason. Phil might have "left" after 98 but it was Krause told Phil it was going to be his last season coaching the Bulls even if he went 82-0 and won the title. He already had Tim Floyd handpicked as his successor. Reinsdorf did push back on Krause's statement and tried to retain Jackson but I think Phil was mentally coaching that season as his last with the Bulls and wasn't going to come back regardless. It's true that Jordan repeatedly said that season that he wouldn't play for another coach so if Phil left, he would leave. Pippen was going to be a FA and looking for a huge payday plus was dealing with chronic back issues. He was also pissed off at his previous contract and held a grudge against the organization so no guarantees he even comes back to the team. Rodman was turning 37 and had a steep decline almost immediately following the season. There are other reasons as well. It wasn't just Phil and it wasn't just Krause. -

Hopefully this causes people to reconsider the role Krause played in the dynasty. He had his flaws but they don't win 6 titles without several of the moves he made. Jordan introduced a new generation of fans to his personal hatred of Krause via The Last Dance so in some ways he bears some responsibility for what happened tonight. -
Pete Alonso has virtually identical platoon splits for his career (.870 vs RHP, .869 vs LHP)

4th or 5th inning? So far we’ve acquired 2.5 major league players so we should expect maybe 3 more?
-
Damn, when I saw this yesterday I figured he was on board with coming to Chicago But seriously, I'm not sure how much sense that makes. Couldn't he just refuse to sign with the Bears or at least make it heavily known that he doesnt want to play for Chicago? Wouldn't be the first top QB to do so and get their way. Seems stupid to play another year of college football if you are ready for the NFL because the team with the number 1 pick won't make a decision on how they plan to use the pick on January 15th. Also doesn't make sense without at least talking to the Bears or seeing who they hire at OC.
