    The only time I had fellow Cubs fans everywhere was when I was growing up in Naperville. I've lived in the UP (which is like 50/50 Cubs and Brewers), Milwaukee, and now Madison WI. I can honestly say if I have to be surrounded by an enemy, it's probably Brewer fans. Except on Sundays when they turn into Packers fans. The transformation is quite amazing actually. I think it has something to do with the fact that Brewers have never won anything. If they win the WS this year, they'll be like Packer fans all week long and it will suck hard.

    Sure. I didn't say they couldn't.

    Ehhh.......31-24 Commanders. I'm hoping for continued improvement, even on defense, which would bring the Commanders under 30 points and make this a dogfight. My hopes would be raised if we get some of our starters back. I'm looking for 3 TDs from the Bears' O. If that happens, on the road, against what is considered a quality opponent, I'm going to be happy with Caleb & crew.

    I guess we are going to find out, barring the Cubs finding some magic. I'm done doubting the Brewers. They did what they do for an extended period. It's no fluke. They've assembled a team of (mostly) non-stars in such a way that the whole is much greater than the sum of the parts. They can get hot, stay hot, and absolutely beat the Dodgers. It all depends on how long that train stays on the tracks.

    The Brewers would replace him with a castoff from a 100 loss club and get equal performance.

    I uhh…hadn’t noticed.

    It maximizes profit.

    Alternate team fight! I fart in your general direction!

    Assuming nothing changes I’m rooting for the Brewers.

    They might actually be the team of destiny this year.
  11. Soul
    Perhaps not even that much

    Why does Frelick wave off guys who are 30 yards from him?

    This ump is blind.

    I give the Brewers credit for the acquisition but did anyone else think he was capable of this?
  15. Soul
    No one can explain how Vaughn goes from horrible to “major acquisition“ literally on the bus ride up I94
  16. Soul
    Vaughn. Of course.

    After all Puerto Ricans aren’t Americans.

    It feels like there have been more successful QB "reclamation" projects in the past few years.

    😄 Thing is, there are members of my household who value the halftime show over the game. So I wind up watching it with them. I have no clue if it was a "good" or "bad" performance though. I need to rely on others.

    Maybe? I don't know. I think if Fields wants to see the field at this point (after he flames out with NYJ), it would be more likely in the CFL or XFL, where his physical skills could be used against lower-level competition. Otherwise he's likely to just be buried on the depth chart and maybe play as a stop-gap for an injured starter. Does he handle a headset well? Maybe he could do color at OSU.

    It’s absolutely valid to say nah, he was always overrated. I’m saying the Bears coaching has been so abysmal on the QB front there’s no way Fields received any kind of NFL-caliber development and that’s what he would have needed, just like many others. Where he’s at now, with the Jets? Zero chance he does anything. He’ll never succeed now. He’s ruined. He doesn’t have the skills and the window to get rid of bad habits and develop them is long past. It’s not provable. Just an opinion.

    Fire Fickell boom boom boom boom boom Fire Fickell boom boom boom boom boom Im so looking forward to attending another Badgers home game!!! Not. This one is homecoming so if Fick thought the students were angry at the Maryland loss he’s got no idea.

    I admit, I did not see Daboll’s train wreck coming. He was the hottest HC candidate that year and I thought it was well-deserved.

    It’s too late. He was either overrated as a prospect or ruined by a remarkably terrible coaching staff in Chicago. I believe it was the latter.
