cub fans need to enjoy this signing while it still is good for the team... in the final years when lester's performance/salary ratio makes john danks contract look good... there will be plenty of time to not want to think about it.

We will choose tonight to punish our eyes with football, our ears with Jon Gruden and our souls with consideration of what is to come for a team so thoroughly beyond reasonable hope. So make our time worth it.

Bring it on.

Bring your false starts, blocked extra points, 12 menin the huddle and tipped interceptions. Bring the failed screen pass chucked to the ground, the free releases given to receivers, the illegal block in the back and the self-maiming sack dance.

Give us the cutaway to a bewildered Marc Trestman after Jay Cutler sees everyone lined up wrong, throws his hands up, turns around and calls an angry timeout. And we want the kickoff taken out of the very back of the end zone and returned all the way to the nine.

Those of us who have to watch have found a perverse way to appreciate this shambling zombie of a season, by savoring the pain.

Are we ready for some football, you ask?

At some point.

Not listening. But I must ask the REALLY IMPORTANT QUESTION.

Is Lester winning or losing this this press conference?

That was pointless. Bears coaches or management press conferences only please. At least theirs are unintentionally hilarious.

Glad I turned it off. Now, when I turn them back on, I will hear them use the pc to not talk about the Bears.

I don't want to hear Terry or Dan ever criticize a reporter for welcoming someone to Chicago.

Just so I understand - Terry's Guy that originally said that Emery and Trestman were "no doubt" coming back is now saying that the winds have changed and now they might be on the hot seat but that might change again.

Sounds like a real "inner-sanctum" source.

Aside from all the mandals in that picture I can't help but still be amazed there's an old arsenal kit in that picture!

I think Laurence decided to pull for arsenal cuz of luol Deng and their then 6-7+ year trophyless streak so c'est la vie

I don't understand the confusion over who is charge. There doesn't seem to be any doubt or questioning that Phil Emery hired Marc Trestman. I assume he has to recommend his selection to ownership, but they are likely to grant him his selection.

Why would firing Trestman be any different than firing him? Emery makes his recommendation and the ownership approves (all but a certainty if they aren't firing Emery).

He might instantly be my favorite player. I want to hear some of that on NFL audio.

Apparently Bernstine passionately protects the sponsors. I realize it's a rule of corporate radio, but since I'm not a B&B caller I can point out things like Ditka getting ripped by Boers and Bernstine and then Ditka doing Motorwerks commercials. Does this mean B&B are doing Motorwerks a disservice?

This is not a shot at Motorwerks, I'm sure they're great people.

The NL pressers are much easier to get through than AL ones.

With that sponsor crap Bernsie admits they are "censored" by their financial arrangements.
