    When you make a trade like Jeffrey Simmons, you are telling the rest of the league that you are being aggressive. I think downplaying the possibility of another trade is Poles trying to keep some leverage and protect the Bears from price gauging by other teams.

    Kevin Clark on SC said, "It's not an overpay, if it solves your problem."

    Rooting for the Packers go 10-7, finished last in the division and miss the playoffs.

    Don't know how much truth there is to this but: Evan Sidery @esidery The Bears and Chargers are deep in trade talks involving Khalil Mack, which could be finalized after this weekend. Chicago would be sending Los Angeles a Day 3 pick, likely a 4th or 5th, in exchange for Mack. Mack wants to compete for a Super Bowl this year and return to Chicago.

    Had trouble with the internet all morning and when I get it back, I see the Bears getting Jeffrey Simmons. Holy moly. You don't make this trade unless you know what you have in Ben Johnson and Caleb Williams. I am still holding out hope that Poles can bring Mack back. As for Wright, he should be cheap to reacquire, perhaps a pick swap? Wright and a 7th for a 6th type trade.

    From a baseball fan POV, it's kind of cool to see a franchise win their first championship, even if it is the Brewers. From a Cub fan POV, I chuckle at the fact that during the greatest moment of their franchise history, some Brewers fans still have the Cubs on their mind. I do not know about you but when the Cubs won in 2016, the Brewers (and Cardinals) were nowhere near my conscious thought. Yeah it took 2X times as long to win a champiogship than it did the Brewers but I would like to remind the Brewers that it still took the Cubs less time to win their first title than it did the Brewers. Celebrate the accomplishment Brewers fans. I just hope the Brewers good fortune means more bad fortune for the Packers.

    Knicks and the Brewers in the same calendar year. Yeah, it's been a very annoying year for sports. I know I might be in the minority, I would not be upset if the potential lockout goes well into next season.

    At least the Bulls did not lose by 30+ again.
  9. NorthsideAvenger
    Yes to Simmons, please.
  10. NorthsideAvenger
    Frank Seravilli mentioned it during the game. I don't want a desperate GM making a desperate trade to help save his job.
  11. NorthsideAvenger
    What does this mean? I don't speak Twitter/X.
  12. NorthsideAvenger
    Sounds like Davison is starting to shop for a "shoot-first, scoring wingers with size." My first thought is....uh-oh.
  13. NorthsideAvenger
    At least we now know the Cubs are not the only team that falls apart at the all mighty Brewers team. Welcome to the "Falls Apart to the Brewers" Club, LAD,, San Diego and Rays.

    It's a problem for the Bears if they can not take advantage of any slip ups the Vikings will have in the next 4-8 games. To me there is no chance Vikings go throw Bills/Packers/49ers/Lions (plus tricky games with ATL/Carolina/NE also on the schedule) without suffering a loss or two. I think the division is coming down to the last weeks of the seasons. In fact it would not surprise me if Bears/Vikings will decide the division.
  15. NorthsideAvenger
    I'm not too worrid worried about the Vikings because they have Murray/Wentz at QB. That's.....fine for the regular but not good enough to make a deep run in the playoffs.
  16. NorthsideAvenger
    Caleb Wilson was awesome tonight regardless of the result.
  17. NorthsideAvenger
    Blashill is giving me Eberflus vibes. There is no way Blashill survives the season as coach.
  18. NorthsideAvenger
    Good, better, best, give your fans a cardiac arrest. Good teams find ways to win. Let's fix these flaws (and get Mack or Simmons to CHI already) and let's ride to the top.
  19. NorthsideAvenger
    Bulls saw how the Blackhawks started their season in Vegas and said, "Hold my beer."
  20. NorthsideAvenger
    I don't know if or when the Bulls will be relevant again.
  21. NorthsideAvenger
    Then his kids take over.
  22. NorthsideAvenger
    Good. Fight annoyance with annoyance.
  23. NorthsideAvenger
    I don't know what the answer is but what I do know is Blashill is not it. I'm ready for the Hawks to move off Blashill.
  24. NorthsideAvenger
    Baseball script writers on wanting the Brewers in the World Series to Cubs fans: Resistance is futile. Go Guardians/Rays.
  25. NorthsideAvenger
    Whatever. Maybe if the Brewers win it, complacency will hit that franchise.
