The one worked out pretty well for the chargers. The Elway one did not do so well for the Colts.
Ah yea you are correct, twice with Elway. I just don’t think Caleb is gonna have the sway
i also would question if it worked out pretty well for the chargers as Eli went and won two titles in New York and the chargers still are without

Even if it was true, there’s a difference between saying he doesn’t want to play for the Bears versus he won’t. How many players are really drafted to a team they want to go to? And this whole idea of wanting to go to Washington because he grew up nearby; well it didn’t impact where he went to college
Eli Manning happened once and it took a hell of a lot to make that happen. I don’t think Caleb’s dad is a retired NFL QB with the cache that the Manning family has in the NFL

He’s connected to the USC program. It was also interesting that Caleb’s dad directed Shane Riordan to their PR guy after denying Caleb didn’t want to play for the Bears to him a few months ago.
Well I’m convinced

How are we blaming TikTok when 17 years ago this entire site was mad at Greg Walker for “lift and pull”

Looks like Ravens DC Mike McDonald is going to be the youngest head coach in the league for Seattle

Shocked Ben Johnson is staying in Detroit, did not see that coming
Probably sucks having to wait through the playoffs and having the last teams without coaches being less than desirable situations at the moment
-
I’m not here to change minds. I think Flus is a terrible head coach and a good DC, it is what it is

McVay, Shanny, and Reid (for a long time - maybe not now) all call plays. Does that make them not serious?
No those are three of the best head coaches in the league that have done it successfully. I watched Flus ignore the offense for two seasons and had his fucking DC go AWOL and now he is back doing what he wants to do, being a DC. We already knew he could do that, he sucks at making sure the other side of the ball is in order
also, all three are offensive head coaches and the bears as per usual throw a wish and a prayer that the OC is doing it right

We know you’re not going to provide a trade of your own…apparently everyone prefers a 4-5 year rebuild.
I assume you’ve looked at who is receiving at-bats in the 2024 projected Fangraphs outfield.
2023
Luis Robert 5.0
2nd place 1.4 fWAR
2022Dalton Varsho 4.8
Jose Abreu 3.8
2021
Anderson 4.6
Moncada 4.0
Varsho 2.3 in 95 games would be roughly 3.5-4.0 extrapolated out for a full season
2020 Abreu 2.8 (would have to be projected)
Anderson 2.4 (would have to be projected due to Covid season)
2019Moncada 5.5
Anderson 4.5
Lots of 4.8 fWAR and above seasons in there…
Buddy I’m not contributing to your fever dreams, just laughin and gruntin

Bears hiring Eric Washington as Defensive coordinator. Eberflus will continue to call defensive plays. He is not a serious head coach

The Sox need a lot of things. Jerry isn’t gonna do a majority of these things.

It sounds unhinged but this guy is such a lifer I wonder if there is any coach he'd consider helping. More likely he goes to an advisory role while he waits out a gig. But I do joke about that moment where Belicheck was so laudatory to Flus after the bears whipped the patriots last year.
This cycle was wild to me. I'm embarrassed to be shocked that Brian Flores got no real traction after what he did in Minnesota this year. I'm pretty amazed Macdonald may end up without an HC role. Vrabel not being immediately snatched upf loors me.
And mainly it's because they are choosey, but considering some of the coaches (1-year OC in Canales, LInebacker coach in Las Vegas, Non-play calling OC in TN, Linebacker coach in NE) it's very surprising.
But also kinda good news for the bears as when I really was tipped over the edge on us not getting a coach was when it was clear vrabel would be available. That guy can coach.
I think Flores will forever have what happened in Miami as an albatross around his neck. Absolutely wrong, he shouldn’t, but owners are a boys club that you can’t cross
-
Man, it’s looking increasingly more likely that Belicheck gets iced out. That’s crazy
-
Bucs OC Dave Canales to the Panthers as HC
-
I wonder where Vrabel ends up now. Would be cool if the Bears brought him in as DC although I doubt Flus would want that situation breathing down his neck

And also Balta, you are also correct that they aren’t putting a second OF deck on 35th and Shields lmao

This is a MAJOR project, fwiw. It will probably cost less than the full 78 site, but you're basically talking about spending so much money that you might as well build a new ballpark. The outfield isn't built to support the weight of an entire second story on top of it, so you are completely rebuilding the support for the outfield while also stripping off and redesigning the infield - while also considering how this will change factors like wind, sunlight into the luxury boxes, etc. It would be difficult to strip off most of the upper deck while still preserving the luxury boxes, and that would look straight up odd in addition to being a high cost.
If you're going to spend hundreds of millions to renovate a park into something monstrous at a bad site, just pass on the idea and spend more to build something FAR BETTER at a good site.
For example, if your options are a beautiful domed football stadium in the suburbs or building a monstrosity on the lakeshore that looks like you landed a spaceship inside a once historic building that everyone hates because it is awful and hard to get to, do not build the stupid space ship. It will be a massive waste of money, it will look ridiculous, and in 20 years you'll be tired of it and wanting the actual professional building in the suburbs. This may or may not be relevant to any other team.
When referring to the other team, that stadium was also the third smallest in the league the moment it was completed 😂
(and now, 20 years later when all of the above you wrote is also true, it is the smallest by almost 2K seats)

As a suburban family man I wholly disagree that a brand new park is not so much of a draw because people party afterwards lol.
