Open thread

May 8, 2023

The NFL schedule will be released this Thursday. I am sure it will be a real battle finding where the Bears get their three wins this upcoming season.

Just remember, Ryan Poles took four offensive linemen in last year’s draft and three didn’t even play.

April 30, 2023

Here we go again. And for those who think I’m just a party pooper, look no further than last year’s draft picks. Having only one or two decent players out of 11 picks isn’t a very good ratio. And even worse, one of those “decent” players was a punter.

If Darnell Wright ends up being great, then great, I guess? But what about the other nine players? I know it’s only the second draft, but the fact that he fucked up royally last year doesn’t give me any faith that this group will be a success.

History has shown us that most of these players will be hurt. The others? Really bad at football.

Discuss.

The Draft is upon us. This will be the official thread for when you need to comment after every bust is selected by Ryan Poles.

Fuck this franchise.

The major sports are becoming oversaturated and micromanaged.

April 15, 2023

Play-in games, extra playoff teams, rule changes, you name it. It’s ruining our favorite sports all in the name of the almighty dollar. The quality and excitement is all but gone.

Last night, I witnessed the Chicago Bulls embarrass themselves in a game that had no business even being played. They promptly blew the game in true Bulls’ fashion and failed to make the playoffs. It was the glorious “Play-In” game.

Why is there a need to make the two worst teams after the eighth spot to play extra games? There isn’t. The NBA only gives a shit about money. They don’t care about the quality of the product. And I haven’t even delved into their idiotic ways of watering down the quality by letting teenagers who have no business being in an NBA arena, let alone putting on a uniform to play. This is the main reason why the NBA has sucked for the last decade.

Half of the players in the league shouldn’t be in the league because of how shitty they are. If you want to be a school teacher, you can’t just go to college for one year. You need to go there for four years and earn a degree. Why can’t the NBA make players stay in college for three years so they actually learn how to play the game properly? Players need to stay in college not only to learn how to play defense, but to actually grow up and learn some social skills. Sure, Kobe and LeBron went into the league after high school. But let’s be real: That’s two out of a million. Fuck Adam Silver.

It really is a close race with who is ruining their league the most. I see it with the NFL, MLB and NBA. Thankfully, the NHL only does some dumb shit and while their playoff format has been fucking trash by basically being the same matchups every year, it’s a matter of time before known fuckface Gary Bettman does more damage.

MLB has also ruined things by adding extra teams and rounds to the playoffs. Hey, things were just fine with four playoff teams. Why add one-game playoffs and getting rid of the pitcher batting? Now, there is a pitch-clock? It’s no longer baseball. The pitcher is on the field. They should fucking bat. I am so glad I don’t give a damn about this sport anymore. It’s been completely ruined. Dipshits.

In the NFL, they added the glorious 17th game and seventh seed to the playoffs. So the solution to keeping players safe is making them play an extra game of the season and extra first-round game with an extra team. It’s like how do you keep your ass clean after taking a shit? Oh, I know. Wipe your ass BEFORE you shit. That’s the solution! We saw the Bears be the last seed in 2021 and it was a disaster. The Bears had no business being there. No team that is seventh should be in the playoffs. But again, it’s all about money and never the quality. Roger Goodell can join Adam Silver in fucking himself with a rusty fishing knife.

I’ve been meaning to write about this topic for a long time. And I finally got it out. If there is anything else that annoys you about changes to the games we love, feel free to add your thoughts.

Can Ryan Poles please fuck off now? The worst quarterback in history was re-signed.

April 6, 2023

Nathan Peterwhacker is back.

How stupid is Ryan Poles? Is drafting a quarterback in the later rounds not a better option? Because 99% of fans would say it is. But instead, let’s bring back the statistically worst quarterback in NFL history!

This is fucking rotten.

Open thread | The Waiting Game Edition

March 24, 2023

We are about a month away from the draft. Things seemed to have quieted down for now.

Can the Bears pick a great player by mistake with the ninth pick? Because as we all know, they can’t pick one any other way.

Ryan Poles is making it rain. Someone needs to tell him that a Super Bowl-winning team can’t be bought.

March 14, 2023

Tremaine Edmunds | Linebacker from the Bills

T.J. Edwards | Linebacker from the Eagles

DeMarcus Walker | Defensive end from the Titans

Nate Davis | Offensive lineman from the Titans

Again, teams who win the Super Bowl generally build their teams in the draft. This isn’t the NBA where teams can sign two or three stars and become instant contenders. And with Ryan Poles’ track record of drafting, this isn’t encouraging at all.

Discuss.

If it were any other general manager, I’d be more optimistic about this trade.

March 11, 2023

Facts are facts. And the facts are that Ryan Poles drafted all busts last year. Just take a look at those picks and see who stood out as a potential star. I’ll wait.

In the mean time, the Bears did get a pretty good wide receiver in D.J. Moore along with the three extra picks through 2025. But how is D.J. Moore going to get the ball when Trevor Semen is out there throwing the ball not even close to him because Justin Fields is out with an injury? Because that’s exactly what is going to happen.

The reality is, Ryan Poles will just draft more busts than he already will with this trade. Since the Bears haven’t had a competent general manager in the last 35 years, I don’t see this changing. It’s very unfortunate.

The Bears should have kept the first overall pick and went with Bryce Young. A two-quarterback system should be installed on the rare occasion that Fields is healthy. But WHEN he gets hurt, Young will be ready.

But now, that chance is gone. The Bears should still look for a quarterback whether it’s with the ninth pick or in later rounds. Having Trevor Semen out there gives the team no chance. Seriously. You can have the defense of the 2000 Ravens out there and if Trevor Semen is the quarterback, they have zero chance of doing anything worth a damn.

I’m afraid to say that this trade will be more frustrating since more busts will be brought in and thus, more players to get pissed off at.

Trevor Semen was given a two-year contract????????

March 8, 2023

All this time, I thought this useless fuckwad was only under a one-year deal. This idiot is getting about $2 million and the cap hit is just north of $2.5 million. What a waste of space. Ryan Poles is seriously the dumbest fucking general manager ever. And this is after we all witnessed Jerry Angelo bringing in dipshits like Todd Collins and Jason Campbell.

We’re still about seven weeks from the NFL Draft. It appears that Ryan Poles is going to trade the overall pick. Instead of just one bust, he will have multiple busts with this trade.

I still feel I am alone in the idea of the Bears keeping the pick to get Bryce Young. Another quarterback is necessary because Fields is one more bad hit away from basically being done for his career. And better yet, getting Bryce Young or any other quarterback in the draft reduces the chances of Trevor Semen playing.

I know. It sounds ridiculous. But these are the Bears we are talking about.

Fuck Trevor Semen.

I have nothing.

It’s been a long winter in Chicago. The Bears were awful. The Bulls are trash. The Blackhawks are tanking (yay?) and my Fighting Illini basketball team has been underwhelming. So of course, I Google “depressing Chicago sports” and this is one of the pictures that came up. This describes me to a tee.

Us fans are too damn loyal. We all still watch and some of us still go to games despite the horseshit that is witnessed.
