Taking Bernsie to task on his reliance on WAR.

"How do you rely on a stat that is impossible to understand?"

Absolutely. I like Hub, and I would take him 10 times out of 10 over Goff.

No joking or trolling.

That explains so much.

Wow, good to see what happens with a different opinion around here.

Reminds me of a Trump rally. Should I fear for my safety?

Leash you're going up against some powerful forces. I don't like the ton of these assaults. I have assume they are all in good fun under the general dictate, "we only hurt the ones we love."

Just your sanity.

I think I really am going crazy. I could have sworn you posted this already.

I appreciate your concern, but there's one thing you should know... I also like Rozner.

Reminds me of a Trump rally.

I'm sure your anti-Goff rants go over better with that crowd.

I need more Hub on the Score. True professional.

We’re talking about the guy who said Watson had character issues vis-à-vis a guy like Jameis, correct?

As has been discussed here numerous times the fortunes of Hub's family business is completely dependent upon staying in the good graces of another family business.

Like many the print end of his business has been forced into less lucrative digital platforms, so he is now totally dependent upon the Bears organization, if he pisses off Virginia or George and they no longer allow him Halas Hall access, his kids and grandkids have to find other lines of work.

In may ways the two businesses are similar, but the Bears have built in antitrust protections which almost entirely eliminates competition.

When Hub was first launched by the Bears, he took his shots for a short amount of time, but has reigned it back in toward the company line.

I like Hub overall, but he has his flaws and can be an ass from time to time.

Hub's actually not even going at him hard. He's just asking probing questions, and Bernstein sounds like he's on the stand at his own murder trial.

The same Hub that chastises callers that want Phillips fired by repeating the phrase, "Ted Phillips has nothing to do with football operations", even though Phillips has been the primary voice influencing ownership during coaching/GM hires for the past 15 years, which makes him the primary influencer of all football operations? That Hub?

Hub has questioned Ted's role in football decisions recently because of the season ending presser it was revealed Ted does sit-in, and have a say in football decisions. Ted was the guy who fired Hub from Bears WGN so there's no love lost.

Is the business side of Bears football going so well that Phillips is untouchable? Forbes wrote a few years ago that the franchise was undervalued because of its business operations.

As has been discussed here numerous times the fortunes of Hub's family business is completely dependent upon staying in the good graces of another family business. Like many the print end of his business has been forced into less lucrative digital platforms, so he is now totally dependent upon the Bears organization, if he pisses off Virginia or George and they no longer allow him Halas Hall access, his kids and grandkids have to find other lines of work. In may ways the two businesses are similar, but the Bears have built in antitrust protections which almost entirely eliminates competition.

When Hub was first launched by the Bears, he took his shots for a short amount of time, but has reigned it back in toward the company line. I like Hub overall, but he has his flaws and can be an ass from time to time.
