The 2020 NFL draft is a year away and far from the minds of Chicago Bears fans. They’re focused on what could and should be another playoff season. At least that’s their expectations. Apparently, one that not everybody seems to share. Take Todd McShay for example. The ESPN draft analyst indirectly made his prediction for […]

The Green Bay Packers Rashan Gary was made their top pick in the 2019 draft at 12th overall. Gary made a name for himself leading up to the draft with his outstanding workout numbers. This included a 4.58 in the 40-yard dash at 277 lbs and a 38-inch vertical leap. However, for all his athletic […]

Daniel Jeremiah is among the more respected NFL draft analysts in the business. A former scout for teams like Baltimore and Philadelphia, he has become a go-to expert every year on college classes coming into the pros for NFL Network. That’s why his assessment of the Chicago Bears draft for 2019 was interesting. The way […]

Willson Contreras had a breakout 2017 season, then he had a good first half in 2018, was voted into his first All-Star Game and then everything went downhill for him. He admitted this spring that he took his success for granted and didn’t put in all the work throughout 2018 that he needed to maintain […]

It appears that Nicolas Beaudin has decided to officially make the jump to professional hockey. Beaudin, the 27th overall selection in the 2018 NHL Entry Draft, has spent the last four seasons with the Drummondville Voltigeurs of the QMJHL. He is considered one of the Blackhawks top defensive prospects.

It could have been really miserable Wednesday night after the White Sox had already blown a 4-0 lead and lost the front end of a double header against the Orioles. In the series finale the White Sox walked off with a 7-6 win, coming from behind in the ninth inning, when Yonder Alonso hit a […]

A few days ago the Cubs were accused of threatening a media member with reprisal if he or she didn’t lay off Addison Russell and/or the team’s handling of him, as he’s about to finish serving his 40-game suspension for violating MLB’s domestic violence policy. That allegation was tweeted by Sheryl Ring, who’s a lawyer […]

There was only time I ever felt uncomfortable around Wrigley Field and that was at the Taco Bell. I thought shit was about to go down between two guys, so my friend and I just eased our way out the front door. Other than that and nothing even happened that time, it’s been pretty chill […]

Who says trading for Yonder Alonso hoping he could help recruit Manny Machado, his brother-in-law, but then ultimately telling him how nice San Diego is, would be a complete waste! Alonso came through with a walk-off, two-out, two-run single in the bottom of the ninth inning to beat the Orioles 7-6 Wednesday night. The White […]

The Chicago Bears made the Leonard Floyd draft pick back in 2016. It came with a bit of a surprise when they traded up from #11 overall to #9 with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. They took the linebacker out of Georgia despite some concerns from experts. Chief among them were his somewhat thin frame and […]

It’s going to be some time before the Chicago Bears 53-man roster is decided. There are still potential changes that could come either from more additions via free agency or an unexpected injury. However, for the time being it appears the main roster building for 2019 is complete. GM Ryan Pace has done all he […]

Another rough start from Ivan Nova makes the idea of Dylan Cease on the South Side much more realistic.

You can’t say enough good things about Javier Báez. He just keeps getting better and El Mago keeps smashing opposite field home runs. On Wednesday, Báez blasted a solo shot to right-center against the Mariners, making him the first Cubs hitter to reach 10 on the season. Not slowing down at all from his runner […]

In April, the Cubs made the unfortunate announcement that they were shutting down right-handed pitcher Brandon Morrow. He missed almost all of the second half in 2018 with an arm injury and then had surgery in November to clean up his right elbow. Since then the Cubs knew he wasn’t going to be ready to […]

Back in 2016, while the Cubs were lapping the NL Central Theo Epstein was looking ahead to the postseason and beyond. He made a blockbuster deal, trading for Aroldis Chapman, but before that Epstein made a deal with the Mariners. It was a four-player trade, but the big pieces were lefty Mike Montgomery going to […]

It’s clearer than ever that improving the Chicago Bears offense was the overriding motivation for this team when the offseason began. Not a surprise when they already have the best defense in the NFL. They signed Mike Davis in free agency. They selected David Montgomery and Riley Ridley in the draft. Now they’ve re-hired Brad […]
