    JJ McCarthy, QB, Minnesota Vikings

    I'm not arguing that Cousins is the answer. It's just strange to sign a guy to the money he got, and draft a QB #8, in the same off-season. Signing someone for 1 year, and drafting Penix for the future makes sense. Are they going to pay Cousins $40 million to be a back-up in 2025? If they...

    JJ McCarthy, QB, Minnesota Vikings

    Penix pick, when they just gave Cousins 4yr/180 million, doesn't make a lot of sense. They are either eating a lot of dead cap money by cutting Cousins after this season ($40 million against cap if cut before 2025), or Penix spends half his rookie contract as a backup. Neither of those scenarios...

    Should be a temp ban. Either share the info, or don't post. "Something crazy happening at a school out west, stay tuned"........ dumb

    Bears

    He definitely lucked into the positive side of supply and demand. Also not a great year for free agent WR. Look up the "top WR free agent" lists and you don't get very far down the list before reaching "who?" level. The few I looked up had Mooney as #3 best available a couple days ago.

    If someone offered me $20 million (or whatever $$$), and said I could either A: sit over here and answer questions, or B: I get $20 mil and sit over here and answer questions, and do medicals, and run some sprints, and lift some weights, and throw a football, I'm choosing A. That's leverage. He...

    Bears

    Its all about leverage though. If i was your #1 whatever, and not easily replaceable, you need to hear me out. Williams has leverage. Purdy wasn’t going to be able to walk into the combine last year and tell the NFL people “no medicals for me”. The assumed #1 pick in the draft can. We are...

    Bears

    If they draft Williams, that means they are trading Fields. Will add some sort of pick(s) there. Seems all over the place with what that might be though.

    Bears

    I know, but when Poles says things like if they decide to trade Fields, they want it done before free agency, this is why. He made it sound like it would be out of the goodness if his heart towards Fields. But, reality is, once free agent period starts, potential trade partners will disappear...

    Russel Wilson being cut today could hurt the Bears in trading Fields. He'll likely sign somewhere for vet minimum. Steelers/Falcons/etc. could pay Wilson $1.21 million, and also save draft picks.

    Bears

    LOL.... 40 year olds walking around today never saw any of the players you list actually play. "Bears football" to most people is losing.

    Bears

    It's all guessing, but every report/article I've seen says maybe a second or third round this year, with conditional pick next year based on how this year goes for him. Trading for #34 straight up might be a long shot. Forget about the first round swap. But, who knows, teams get goofy over QB's...

    Super Bowl: So who you got?

    As an Iowa State guy, I am legally required to cheer for the Purdy9'ers.

    Bears

    I agree about this one. Regardless of how they played all year, they had a chance to tie the game, with 7 minutes left, after imploding for the previous 23 minutes. Tie it up, and give yourself a chance to play a 7min/OT game to go to the Super Bowl. I was cheering for the 49ers, but still...

    Q of the Week: Which schools are in the most need for a facility upgrades?

    The March/April baseball/softball season is such a mess. Even when the temps are "decent", the fields are usually awful, or require crazy amount of work. In a perfect world/weather, I like softball on dirt/grass, but with the timing of high school season.... Sterling opened their new field last...

    Purdy sleep with your wife or something? I will never understand the hate Purdy gets. Normally, people love the underdog story. "Mr Irrrelevant" to back-to-back conference championships is a great story. But forget the "story", and just look at the numbers. Passing yards: 5th Yds/attempt: 1st...

    Bears

    I still think Fields could be gone, and could be a great selling point for the new OC. Tell the OC they have 100% control of the offense, and give them the shiny new toy to build it around. Keep Fields, and it's yet another offensive system for him to learn. Also, if they keep Fields and he...

    Mike Fitzgerald leaves York returns to Marist

    You would think, but there are always "those parents". I guess as a coach, you just hope their numbers are small. Not York football, but here's an example I saw. Team was in the process of winning a playoff game, a couple parents of players that weren't playing, openly complaining and...

    Mike Fitzgerald leaves York returns to Marist

    Like 99% of the "non-abuse" cases, I'm sure it's something regarding "why isn't my kid playing!", or "why aren't you using my kid correctly!"

    What sport has the worst parents?

    Have only heard stories about it, but I'd vote hockey. I think the cost of playing any sort of travel hockey, makes parents think they "deserve" to be able to do whatever they want.
