If you forced me to bet on the next Chicago team to win a championship, I'd say the Blackhawks simply because the other teams are in sports hell. The Cubs and Sox won't overspend like the Dodgers or Yankees and they apparently can't rebuild into a perennial winner. Then the Bulls are in NBA hell. _________________ The Original Spanky wrote: I don't like white rappers. | ||

Next year is really critical, because, if they have the qb correct, they will be pushing for the division championship mine and Brick's hawks have a generational talent coming our way in a month...and then two other picks in a supposedly great first round...and then a bunch of other picks in the second. They can get healthy very quickly. bulls are just an average team stuck in averageness for the foreseeable future david haugh keeps telling me the cubs have waves of talent percolating in the minor leagues _________________ | ||

Assuming the Bears do what the Bears typically do, it's got to be the Hawks. Both baseball teams are capable of winning crappy divisions, but they don't seem to be on a World Series trajectory and, unless the Bulls luck into a Top 5 type player, the odds of them winning anything are small. | ||

Chicago should have a 2nd NFL franchise, 2nd NBA team and maybe even 2nd NHL franchise--at least there should be an NHL team in Southern Wisconsin. Makes owners decisions whether to spend and go for titles or just do enough to keep the season ticket orders filled pretty easy: f*ck them fans. | ||

If Poles can rebuild the defense within the next two years and Fields stays healthy, I could see them competing with the Eagles, Chiefs and Bills. It seems like they are 2-3 years away from that level. Need to draft or sign on the defensive line next season and its probably a year before the guys they draft develop into consistent or elite players. That said, if Fields proves he can't throw in this offense this season, I don't see them winning any time soon. _________________ The Original Spanky wrote: I don't like white rappers. | ||

If Fields can't throw, that means the Bears aren't good and their record will reflect that. In addition, if the Panthers suck, the Bears will have some immediate ammunition to make a deal for Caleb Martin. You've got to have a team who already has their quarterback to land #1. And you've got to hope the Cardinals want to stick with Kyler Murray. | ||

I have a feeling the Panthers will be better than the Cardinals and I'm sure the Cardinals will take Caleb Williams. The offense can be Fields-proof if they run a lot. If Moore gets doubled off the line, then Fields will be right back to having to make decisions after the snap. Let's hope to God he's gotten better at that. _________________ The Original Spanky wrote: I don't like white rappers. | ||

Yes, it seems the Cardinals know what they're doing sticking with Colt McCoy at QB this season. And they also have the Texans 2024 1st Round pick. | ||

The Sacramento Kings' aborted relocation to Anaheim may have been a pretty big hinge point for the NBA. Had they become a third Los Angeles team, I think we would have seen a bunch of similar moves with a third New York team in Jersey and teams doubling up on the Bay Area, DC, and Chicago. The Whalers tried to move to Auburn Hills. Didn't work. _________________ Molly Lambert wrote: The future holds the possibility to be great or terrible, and since it has not yet occurred it remains simultaneously both. | ||

While it's true that Claypool and Mooney are sitting out, the offense should still be able to dominate in these drills, even with backup receivers. According to Hoge et al, Fields looks good throwing to Moore, and not so good throwing to everyone else. That's an easy problem for opposing defenses to solve. _________________ Antonio Gramsci wrote: The crisis consists precisely in the fact that the old is dying and the new cannot be born; in this interregnum a great variety of morbid symptoms appear. | |||

Dan Bernkins and Laurence Spiegolmes wrote: I respect Poles for going out there and acquiring Justin Jefferson and Cooper Kupp back in 2023. Total alpha move. But after a year and change of inconsistent offense, it's time to question whether these receivers really mesh with Fields. It's lazy radio to suggest this is on Fields. We don't do that here. Rather it's time to ask a question no one else is asking; what if Fields is so ultra talented, so above and beyond all the other mortal QBs in this league, that it's simply a matter of Fields being born before his time. Like this is Copernicus stuff here, the guy who said the earth revolved around the sun while everyone else mocked him. He never received the respect he deserved while he was alive - it took centuries before people began to appreciate him. That's what's going on here with Fields. _________________ Kyrie Irving will never win anything as a team's alpha: check 2013 CSFMB ROY | ||
