  1. What a boring Super Bowl, it was a blowout and a few Chiefs garbage time touchdowns. I was so glad Brady stopped talking after blowing Mahomes for much of the night. Now onto the new league year with free agency in March.
  2. I’m not excited about the game because of the teams in it, but Philly does have a chance to win, so I’ll watch for that reason. I’m more excited about the food we’ll have instead of the game itself.😂 Italian Hoagies and a rotel dip!
  3. I love that. There’s no sense investing in running backs when there’s so much greater of a need upfront. The most productive running backs of my lifetime were Matt Forte and Thomas Jones (signed, not drafted by the Bears). I’d feel better about drafting one high and hitting on one like those guys if they had a solid line upfront.
  4. I’m not really a close NBA observer, but can someone explain to me why the Mavs made the Doncic/Davis trade? And…are the Bulls tearing down the roster to the studs like the Sox are and starting over?
  5. I’m only hoping that Caleb Williams gets one unified voice from the coaches rather than too many voices which screws him up. To me, Ben Johnson’s voice should be the one who matters most.
  6. It makes me wonder how different and potentially worse the Lions will be without their OC, DC and much of the offensive coaching staff. They’ll still be good but who knows if they can replicate the success they had.
  7. I want to better understand what the goal is. Is the goal to move the team? Is it to turn over the roster to new prospects and the new way of doing things? It would kind of suck if they are not spending just to move even though I guess I’d understand why. I hope they have exhausted all options within their price range to improve the roster so as to flip players at the deadline. Of course Feddes don’t grow on trees and the old way of rebuilding isn’t possible anymore. And they have already traded away 2 of 3 blue chip players on the roster (if Robert still is considered one) so they are almost out of shots in the arm and need to develop.
  8. I hope Tim regains form and salvages his career. And find where his power went because I thought that was what made him interesting in 2019.
  9. If Poles gets fired, what’s the plan?
  10. I’m wondering if Washington’s kicker will be their Achilles heel in the next round…
  11. Give some credit to the offensive playcalling too. It’s amazing how an offense looks when it isn’t in disarray and is clicking.
  12. I think with Johnson, we’re going to have to wait until he’s available for a second interview if Detroit is still in it after this weekend. I view McCarthy having an in person interview as a good thing so they could get actual face time with him before he interviews elsewhere. Like Tony, I don’t objectively think the Raiders are a better spot than the Bears. They lack the quarterback and don’t have a top 1 or 2 pick. I’m not sure that their roster is as built up like the Bears are. Sure, Brady is an owner there but their ownership has its own issues (just like the Bears).
  13. A cool moment. Too bad the Bears didn’t draft this offensive lineman.
  14. Kevin Warren has to know one win won’t change things. George McCaskey should have no say in the head coach hire given his track record. I think Poles stays but wish he wouldn’t. And I hope they get Ben Johnson or Mike Vrabel at this point. As far as Williams being the problem, I see more of an undisciplined football team and an offensive line that is horrendous. They definitely need to throw the ball down the field as they can’t live on screens and short gains though.
  15. So I looked into an antenna for my house and found a bunch of cables downstairs leading to different parts of the house - outside, up through the floor to extend to the three seasons room, up in the attic and into the bedrooms. Then, when my dad and I were putting up some lights so we could see in the attic at our main staircase and in my wife’s closet and we found an antenna set up with a cable connected in the attic and on the east side of the house. We found the cable that hooked up to the TVs, an input and output box in the basement and some cables with a tag that said “ANT” on it. Once those were plugged in, the tv found all of the channels through the air, including CHSN. It was pretty sweet that we had an antenna all set up just sitting there in the attic. Good thing the previous owner didn’t have it taken down when they got Direct TV and then Comcast.
