And they’re off…..

March 31, 2018

It would be refreshing to see the Cubs get off to a good start this year…which made last night’s 17 inning 2-1 loss very disappointing, especially against the Marlins.

Your thoughts on the Cubs welcomed here. Will they return to the WS in 2018?

The Bears are doing that dumb thing again where they spend a bunch of money on free agents.

Forget drafting and developing players. Well, whoever they get ends up being hurt anyway. But already signing players with a history of injuries in the NFL? Come on.

Call me pessimistic, but it is what it is. And so far in the Ryan Pace disast-ERA, it’s more common.

I know, it’s the NFL. Everyone gets hurt. It’s just how it is these days and it’s unfortunate.

Allen Robinson, Taylor Gabriel and Trey Burton are the big signings for this team. The Bears need to be smart (good joke) and not trade away draft picks just to move up like last year. Keep the picks and get as many players as possible. It’s a dart board, but they need to get some bullseyes.

What could be an under-the-radar signing is a new kicker in Cody Parker. He came from the Dolphins. The history of kickers on this team in my lifetime is a vile one. I mean, I had early memories of Kevin Butler and as much as I can’t stand this next guy, Robbie Gould’s first few years were really good. It was the last few that made me not miss him.

The thread is yours. Throw your thoughts into it. And apologies to all for not posting much lately. With work going crazy and a lousy winter in sports for Chicago, my desire has not been there. I’ll try to post more in the next month as the NFL Draft is in late April.

Thx for the memories…

Arrieta to the Phillies. Expected deal is 2-5 years.

Thoughts?

Shitty quarterback, who was signed by shitty general manager, released by shitty team.

March 1, 2018

This went one year too long. I still don’t understand why shitty general manager decided to sign shitty quarterback. He was shitty in Tampa Bay. Shitty quarterback was paid over $15 million dollars. Seriously.

I am praying shitty general manager finds a legit backup in the next few weeks. This could be another long regular season for shitty team. It’s too bad shitty team president gave shitty general manager a contract extension when he didn’t even earn it. Sheesh.

Your thoughts in this shitty thread.
