Sox holding talks "daily" on Q
QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jan 5, 2017 -> 03:25 PM) I don't think they were aggressive with him at all. They definitely were, especially with a Juco player. Amazing to me he's held his own as he has personally.

I know he's in a small market, but how in the hell is Westbrook not in the top 5 in all star voting? That guy is fun to watch.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jan 4, 2017 -> 12:49 PM) Outside of the lack of talent at the QB position, I've been quite happy with Pace. Same. One of the few bright hires this organization has done.

QUOTE (Deadpool @ Jan 2, 2017 -> 09:38 PM) Jimmy Butler is making it really hard for the Bulls to trade him. 52 points tonight. Absolutely hate that they are wasting his prime like this.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jan 2, 2017 -> 02:39 AM) Yeah, that would be Brady. Dude is gonna win the mvp and he missed the first 4 games. 11-1 record, 28 tds with only 2 picks? I'm completely shook on this one. Depends on you ask. You'll have the crowd who will say Rodgers never had to cheat to get his accomplishments which is completely justifiable.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jan 1, 2017 -> 03:39 PM) Depends on how much job security he has. If he's trading for future year picks he better be confident he doesn't need that first round pick to save his job after 2017. And I find that ridiculous cause Pace has been far from the problem other than people ripping him on not drafting a QB (yet). It would be a very Bears thing to do however. I think what really got my blood boiling was Loggins and company admitting they had no idea that Jordan Howard was this good when there were people even on this board (I believe Rock was his biggest fan coming out) who said he should be the starting RB from day 1.

QUOTE (Con te Giolito @ Jan 1, 2017 -> 03:36 PM) Leonard Floyd was a puzzling pick as well, especially with the trade up. .... and he was damn good this year as a rookie. (Giants were probably gonna select him next before Bears traded up)

QUOTE (Con te Giolito @ Jan 1, 2017 -> 03:32 PM) Bold prediciton: none of those players will be drafted by the Bears. Pace has a little "smartest guy in the room" in him. Other than Kevin White, he's been very good in drafting guys so far.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jan 1, 2017 -> 12:50 PM) They are bad enough to lose while putting up a good effort. Penalties, turnovers, bad tackling, you have to question if this goes on for the rest of the game if it costs Fox his job. This might be the only game they've played that they look like they've quit on Fox. Jets have been doing it for 5 weeks now.

As long as Howard, Whitehair, Meredith, etc. don't get injured, this should be the best possible outcome for the Bears.

Quintana Rumors: Round and round and round we go
QUOTE (ptatc @ Dec 29, 2016 -> 10:14 AM) It's fairly rare that a knee injury will not allow 100% recovery. The only one really is a significant hyaline cartilage injury. I was gonna say. Its a torn ACL. A couple posters here are acting like the kid completely shredded his knee or had a more serious injury that he'll never be the same again in some aspects (ala Jared Mitchell).

Quintana Rumors: Round and round and round we go
QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Dec 28, 2016 -> 10:11 AM) First off, rebuilding was without question the right strategy for us. We were stuck in the middle with no money and a bottom five farm system. The choice to blow it up was a no brainer. Second, I am super excited to follow some of these young players. By June we could have a rotation that includes Rodon, Giolito, Lopez, & Fulmer. That's four young guys with TOR stuff. For diehard Sox fans, that already makes 80% games at least somewhat interesting. Plus we'll have an electric young arm in the bullpen in Burdi. And you didn't even mention Kopech who I'm the highest on after Lopez in our system. Hit on some position players and look out. Obviously not all of those guys will pan out, but if the sox can get even 40% of them to... wow.

QUOTE (southside hitman @ Dec 28, 2016 -> 09:37 AM) It is obviously easier for me (FutureSox duh) to be excited about this rebuild than most. Same with the ex FS guys like myself. I still get giddy.
