    not bad. As I suspected Chargers game is on SNF. the stretch of one home game between 10/23 and 12/10 seems rough (and once again 3 home games in Dec/Jan), but there’s a bye week in there Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve home games are interesting

    I'm reading people saying that Bears @ Chiefs is actually going to be in week 3, not week 7. Doesn't seem like a ton more is going to leak before 6pm
  3. UMFan83
    They changed it this year so that some teams can play 2 TNF games
  4. UMFan83
    Missing games: vs Arizona vs Atlanta vs. Denver vs. Las Vegas at Chargers at Saints at Buccaneers If we're looking at a potential SNF game (they have to have a SNF game right?!?! Chicago, Justin Fields, etc) I guess at Chargers is the best bet. Doesn't seem like any of the remaining homes have SNF appeal.

    Bears also have a second TNF game in Week 10 at home vs. Carolina. So lame. Hopefully the final night game is a Sunday Night Game. Would be weird to be shut out the entire season from SNF, especially with a marketable QB

    Just added thanks. I also read that the Bears will have 4 prime time games and only 2 announced so far. Let’s see if we continue our tradition of having 3 road prime time games for ever 1 home prime time game

    Take with a grain of salt but some other potentially leaked Bears games I’ve seen from other teams. I'll add the Packers games too in order to track the schedule in its entirety. I realize we'll get all this info at 6 but I'm a dork that likes to put this together lol. The ones with stars next to them are leaks from legit people. Week 1 - vs. Green Bay* Week 3 - @ Kansas City Week 5 - @ Washington (TNF)* Week 6 - vs Minnesota* Week 10 - vs Carolina (TNF pt 2) Week 11 - @ Detroit Week 12 - @ Minnesota (MNF)* Week 14 - vs. Detroit Week 15 - @ Cleveland Week 18 - @ Green Bay* Edit 1: Seeing a few more leaks, adding Chiefs and Lions games

    Last time that happened was 2006 👀 Never thought I'd see the day when the Lions were a prime time season opening team.
  9. UMFan83
    Ahh I see we’re doing the whole “get a weeks worth of runs in one game so our overall numbers look good” thing
  10. UMFan83
    Booo the 2 ER or less streak ends for Steele
  11. UMFan83
    That's because Ross leaves them in so long that they become 2+ run losses. /s
  12. UMFan83
    Extremely disappointing. This was blatant homophobia and the fact that he's still allowed to be a leader of young men is ridiculous.
  13. UMFan83
    Official now: the Bears will have to play the Chiefs in Arrowhead. Makes the schedule a little bit more difficult, though I'm not sure we beat them in Germany either.

    They were legitimately fun when they started 39-21 last year but have been a joyless slog to watch going 49-61 since then. Even when they were playing well, their ceiling was always capped imo. But where they are at right now, stuck in NBA hell by design with it being unlikely that they get out of NBA hell any time soon unless they luck into a top 2 pick somehow, there is no excitement around the Bulls for me. The less I think about them the better.

    9 of the last 10 Cubs losses have been by 1 or 2 runs. The other loss was by 3 runs. So what’s missing? Bad luck, bad managing, offense not good enough? I saw something about how the Cubs RA over their first 17 games (11-6) is virtually identical to their next 19 games (6-13). The difference is the offense went from averaging 6.6 runs per game to 3.8 runs per game
  16. UMFan83
    6-12 in our last 18. Might still be unlucky or whatever but right now #wearebad
  17. UMFan83
    Man we should really try one of those over the fence hits. A lot easier than getting 3 regular hits in an inning
  18. UMFan83
    I don’t even get excited when I see the Cubs have 2 runners on and less than 2 outs. I used to but it’s been conditioned out of me
  19. UMFan83
    Pathetic
  20. UMFan83
    Hey the Cardinals are cheating. They somehow got to run all the bases on one hit
  21. UMFan83
    As a Chicago fan, the coolest thing about this is that it moves the Blackhawks into the fold of teams I have some excitement for. Previously I didn't expect to be excited to watch them for at least another 2-3 years. Now, while I still expect the Hawks to be bad next year, I will at least have some enjoyment watching them as soon as next fall. Bedard is literally the only person the Blackhawks could have gotten to move them up that timeline. The Bulls are now the only team that I have no excitement about. 1. Bears - 2. Cubs 3. Blackhawks - - - 4. Bulls

    Looks like this isn't your first David Ross IL rodeo
  23. UMFan83
    Never would have made a new topic before the death of mega threads so here we are. For those still watching the Cubs avidly, you'll know Nico went out with a hamstring injury yesterday. He's considered day-to-day and Morel is starting at 2B tonight.
  24. UMFan83
    That's crazy. There are maybe 6 teams closer to Chicago than Kansas City is (Green Bay, Minnesota, Indianapolis, Cincinnati, Detroit, Cleveland) but to Kansas City, Chicago is the closest
  25. UMFan83
    Yeah, horsefeathers em. I get where they are coming from, and I still have difficulties reconciling the Kyle Beach situation with my fandom of the club so I can understand the anger from fans of other teams that already disliked the Blackhawks and think they should have had this 1st round pick taken away from them. If the roles were reversed I'd probably be bitching about it too. But horsefeathers, the 4 Chicago teams that I root for have combined for 2 playoff wins in the last 6 years, one of them in a 4-1 series defeat in a series they were only in because of an unprecedented global pandemic, and the other in another 4-1 series defeat. I'm going to enjoy the heck out of something good actually happening to one of my teams. Do they deserve it? Probably not, but I don't care lol.
