Stinky Stanky

They did shop LaVine but must have decided to keep him. Knew what their weaknesses were and addressed none of them. Three point shooting last night was as pathetic as last year. See what a difference new blood in the FO made? Gar/Pax could have done as well.

I know it's only preseason but Coach D's skills at drawing up a last second play to free up a shooter for a three are already on display. He must have been honing them all summer.?I'd have run something for Bitim. Kid can shoot. Too bad Williams missed that layup. Different game if he made it. Williams isn't a starting PF but he has some wing talent.

Ditka polishing his Urban Tough Guy image. Gimme comfort any day, like they have in real big cities like Minny, Indy, Detroit, etc.

Easy for you to say when we're freezing our asses in December and you're in TX where a 2 inch snow paralyzes the metro area.

I suspect that the Athletic's source is this board.

Doesn’t change the fact that JR was paying 2 for 1.

It's not like arm strength is of any use to a QB, right? But I can see why they kept him. He has the look of a pro QB out there. Ceiling: Career backup or out of the league. Arena football?

Ricky and Tony say hi.

Lifetime job security.

All very true except that I recall some overthrowing receivers \n Year 1.

Big NBA fan here, not expecting much from our guys, softened my opinion on the FO cuz I'm giving them a break on Lonzo. Things might be different if he was 100%. Same as last season, still need a PG, rim protection and three point shooters to space the floor. Coach D hasn't impressed me that much either. If anyone is interested: Who would you rather have in the middle for this team, Vuc or Ayton?

That last TD throw was in exactly the right place where the defender had no chance to get at the ball. Pinpoint accuracy or luck? I'm not sure. I still have questions about his seeing the field and not showing escapability in the pocket, but this one was sort of fun. For sure he's shed any reputation as inaccurate. I'm happy for him, he's a really nice kid.

Whole lotta time spent speculating about bad football. Go read a book you guys.?

If Sheets was a legit LH power bat, he would be tolerable in the OF. But he isn't and is regressing to boot. Vaughn fuhgetaboutit.

How do Elvis's numbers compare to Tim's? Short-term solution, yes.

My old paywall hack still works. The story appears for a second or so before the paywall takes over. If in that time you're lucky enough to hit control-P, the story will show up in the print preview window and you can read it there or print it first. Only works on a desktop computer though.

It was an earlier game, I think against the Brewers at County Stadium. They beat the Giants in G 163.

Paywall protected but just from the headline I'm guessing Chris doesn't want to say what's on his mind until the last game is played and it's not looking good for Tim.

Brant Brown dropped the ball. Suzuki didn't even get a glove on his. Sizemore's hit him in the thigh. Lost it in the sun cuz the weather god was on our side. Hurricane Rita veered east and the sun came out in KC that day. Remember the radio call? BIG VOICE: BRANT BROWNNNN ... DROPS THE BALL! little voice Oh no! BIG VOICE: HE DROPS THE BALL. little voice: noooooooooooo! Just remembered. Cubs made the playoffs that year.

Home Depot is hiring. Pathetic Trayce can join him.

This one has legs, likely to be around for a long time. Didn't even touch the ball. At least Bartman got a glove on his.

At least this time the base he stole had meaning. Last time he hurt himself it was stealing third with two outs just to chase stats. Do they have a sliding instructor?

Spot on. But sad because he's a nice kid. He'd be great in a single wing offense. Three years proving what we already knew: That you can't teach instincts. Think of all the time we're going to have on Sundays to enjoy the beautiful fall weather without worrying about the Bears.

Median life expectancy for an 87 year old US male is 5.12 years. Less than overwhelming odds of passing on for JR.

Exciting local football today as NU rallied from 21 down in the 4th period to beat Minnesota in OT. That will take care of exciting local football for the weekend. See, there is life after Fitz. More wins than last season already.
