1) The Bulls strategy! 2) They need to stop fucking around and just ID actual top candidates. If Ben Johnson wants the job but has to go through 3 rounds of interviews as they narrow it down to 10 finalists, it'll only bite them in the ass.

The fun thing when people list out the Gio-Kopech-Cease-ReyLo-Dunning group (note: only Gio's stock was down when they acquired him, everyone else was trending up) is that it doesn't even include Rodon, since he was just kinda there on the Sox staff. If you include Rodon, that's 4 guys who have been All-Stars / gotten Cy Young votes + Dunning/Kopech - just never at the same time.

Ok, I guess it'd be funny if Roki just never responded to the email.

I mean, we know that he's spoken to the Sox. It could have been a "thank you for the presentation, but I'll pass." But they still talked. The only team I think was confirmed to get iced out was Philly?

Slide 1: How to be a Leader of Men - Lead men - Bear down - Get tough Slide 2: The grind - Wake up at 4:30 a.m. (no alarm) - "Steel the mind" - Workout to 90s playlist - Take notes, pray to sketches of Halas Slide 3: Take the North - Run the ball - Big hits! - O-line? - Lead the men

Made this last year, but it fits. Padme is a 2017/2018 fan.

The Sox have to improve by 40 games to be .500. The only way they get good free agents is if they break the bank, which we know isn't happening.

This is solid AAAA depth.

Yeah, the dunk will land in the highlight reels but that layup was Rose-esque.

I know the Bulls should logically tank. But Coby posterizing Wemby with 15 seconds left to go up 3 after the Bulls trailed by 19 is just good vibes.

Because Mike Sirota = Luis Robert?

I think it's worth remembering that amidst the Johnson/Vrabel/Carroll excitement, they do have to interview two minority candidates to satisfy the Rooney Rule. While I'm still hoping for Johnson, I hope those candidates still get legit interviews and aren't just checking a box.

It was two when I first looked, then the Jets won, so the Bears would have picked in front of them had they lost.

2 slots. From the handful of mocks I've seen, Banks should be there.

Also, I missed the Bears so a redux of the Hester/Knox takeout. I feel like Ben Johnson would be down to do a lot of special teams fuckery. Growing up with the Gould/Hester era makes me yearn for that.

And lord knows, sports are mental. The team actually coming through for Caleb on one of these drives means something.

If they lost your post would have been "only the bears could have orchestrated this losing streak and lost to the Packers in the closing minutes TWICE. Typical. LOL. 🤡" If that small draft position change is what breaks them next year, then nothing would fix it.

They didn't do the thing!!!

Thomas Brown is trying to get tricky. He's auditioning to keep the OC job under Johnson.

Caleb and DJ syncing up makes me feel good.

They need to improve 45+ games to even be in the Wild Card hunt. If this were the Machado/Harper offseason, I don't think signing those two makes this team a contender in one offseason. There's just too much broken.

More like the Philosophy of Rojas

We've known this was coming since Carter-Williams had to change his number. It makes sense. It feels incomplete with out Noah, although I guess they have their "circle of honor" thing.

So is Pat Riley, just as an executive. I want to know what happened between these two.

Jimmy suspended by the Heat and demanding a trade. Was his 1 year in Philly the only place he was happy?
