Back in 2010, the Bears and Panthers played - Cutler was out that game with a concussion I believe. Todd Collins was 6/16 for 32 yards and 4 interceptions, but the Bears were never really close to losing that game because Clausen was the Panthers QB.

1986 called, it wants its anti-drug campaign propaganda back

I am okay with never hearing the word “elite” in reference to quarterbacks, or sports, ever again, for any reason.

Sir, you can go ahead and log off the internet for the day. Your work here is done.

I’m a Bears fan, and Mike Ditka is the most overrated sports figure in the history of Chicago (and possibly in the history of sports, period).

“Has there ever been an NFL team that has been gifted six automatic wins per season more often?”

Shade level: 10

“Everyone sucked” is about the most diplomatic, substance-free way of putting it. The coaching was some of the most poor I’ve ever seen, and the defense was a bigger problem than anything on offense by about a mile and a half.

The NFL suggested they would shorten the preseason and acknowledged that charging mostly the same for tickets was bullshit, but the 18-game season went over like a fart in church. Nobody wants that, and everybody can see the league is just trying to pump out more revenue.

In our league the 12-year olds are pretty competitive already - we don’t really have to push them, they already know what winning is. But they are still there to have fun.

I coach, and yes, I will absolutely co-sign this. There is PLENTY of time for intense compeition in the next few years of the kid’s life. Let them appreciate the game enough to care to put forth the effort first though.

When my son was in teeball (he is older now, Little League age) some people were shocked and/or indignant that they didn’t keep score - and I was like why does this bother you? Literally, the ONLY point of teeball is for the kids to have fun while they learn the basics of the game. A bunch of kindergartners and first…

I laughed waaaaaaaay harder at this than I should have. I did a mock draft once to kind of gauge where guys were going and people were taking up the entire 1:30 or 2:00 or whatever it was - I’m so doing this next time.

It’s damn near the literal definition of irony.

Not sure if this woman, writing for a Chicago newspaper, is unaware that Paul Vallas actually had a turn running Chicago schools already.

I honestly don’t even know how PFT is still a thing. It doesn’t actually generate any content, it just cribs it from other, legitimate outlets and adds Florio’s snarky/obnoxious/biased-and-out-of-context take on it and combines it with hundreds of comments from the dumbest variety of sports fans. That’s it.

I realized Jon Stewart was replaceable when John Oliver took over his show a couple years ago and the show didn’t miss a beat. Oliver does what everyone talks about Stewart doing (but doesn’t really do) so much better.

Now that the Bears have entered actual laughingstock status until further notice along with teams like the Raiders, Jaguars, and Jets, this wasn’t really as good as I thought, it’s like Drew just has to essentially recap recent memory with the Bears (cuz for real, I’m not sure how they won 5 games last year) and…

The Beygency skit on SNL wasn’t actually a joke, anyone who’s ever crossed one of them knows that

My brother and me used to, for some fucking reason, like to put bottlerockets into bottles backwards to hear them pop inside the bottle. Once, I decided to do this with a half-full bottle (knowing it would stay lit in the water). Protip: Unless you wanna use the increased density from the water to create a homemade…
