Dan (and Laurence) use the word "adorable" to describe other men. I find that odd.

I remember Bernstein saying that about Rex Grossman.

Yup, that is happening all across social media, some interesting stuff with left wing media types trying to appear with right wing media types, but it was all a bit anyway for most of them.

In many ways WSCR was the canary in the coal mine, Dan likely took a significant pay cut when his SJW show with Goff imploded, we are seeing that same thing at MSNBC, people just are not buying the angry white liberal act anymore and they are obviously talking amongst themselves and trying to find ways to appeal to the modern marketplace.

The fuck are you guys talking about?

You will catch up eventually

Dan has not changed at all. He is still not capable of not calling people he disagrees with Nazi's, advertising for lefty site Blue Sky, etc.

Leila, who used to be more likable, now goes right to the people who disagree with me do so because "I'm a woman"...There can't be any other reasons.

and..because she's 'persian' and has a muslim sounding last name.

her constant rants about the tsa quickly expose her. many of the tsa officers at checkpoints are women and minorities, not white banjo players from hazzard county, georgia. it just could be that some of the tsa men who take a bit more time for screening, like interacting with attractive women. i can't prove it, they won't admit it, but, it's right there.

ruthie polinsky is a much more enjoyable and knowledgeable listen

2 months ago, she told me that the bears have an elite defense.

Leila hosted on Thursday and kept referring to the Pete Carroll news as being reported "today" vs. when it was reported by Schefter, a day earlier.

Then she was pretty sure that the Bears are locked into the 10th or 11th pick in the draft when they were currently at #9, and could go up a spot depending on Carolina/NYJ.

Moving on to draft reviews, really stuck on late round draft picks not working out. Yes, some deserved criticism of Pickens, but now onto the punter draft picks vs. investing into the center position. Not a bad take, but even when she acknowledged that teams make/break through the 1st 3 rounds, way too criticism of 5th or 6th rounders not working out.

Then, of course, she doesn't forget to mention a few times that any criticisms of her is because she's a woman.

I know I'm being nit-picky on the above stuff..none of it really matters, but just being wrong has nothing to do with gender.

Dan also said the Bears were a top 5 defense.

Lots of bad opinions expressed with much confidence on that show.

ok. i didn't hear dan, presuming hampton - say that. i did hear ruthie say that on CHSN. when 4-2, lots of hubris, flippant comments that maybe all 4 teams in the nfc north make the playoffs. stuff like that....sad to say, everything went pear shaped for them.

The defense WAS more than serviceable early half of the year. That changed.

_________________
Elections have consequences.

i don't argue that...more than serviceable, a good defense. to me, massive difference between elite and good. these pundits have never seen an elite bears defense, to know what an elite defense is.

need to do a better job of analysis, weigh and measure what you say. at the time, just piling on the hubris.

What?

You have to get pressure for any defense to work, but you need instant inside pressure from your three tech for a Cover-2 to work.

Vet QB's know there are several open areas the cover 2 gives you and is they have enough time to let the 10-15 yard out develop they will torch you all day long, the hope is of course to get pressure which forces that throw to be errant and force turnovers.

It also can be easy to run against unless your guys are solid and disciplined in their technique, it does seem that many of the defensive players started making business decisions after Eberflus was launched.

her constant rants about the tsa quickly expose her. many of the tsa officers at checkpoints are women and minorities, not white banjo players from hazzard county, georgia. it just could be that some of the tsa men who take a bit more time for screening, like interacting with attractive women. i can't prove it, they won't admit it, but, it's right there.[/quote]

I believe this is a Dukes Of Hazzard reference and if so, sheer geniusness.

During transition Bernstein obnoxiously bulldozed any opinion Abby P & Gabe R had. They didn't counter punch and ended up sheepishly agreeing with most everything he said. At least Larry & Spiegel mockingly counter punch.

Sounds like Bernstein is back.

I agree with him on Rose. But I understand the Gale Sayers type POV. The unfortunate thing is Rose sat himself out. The reason was unfathomable. To me anyway. He gets paid to be crippled in the older years. So do plumbers and carpenters, for example. Not electricians though. They twist wires and bend conduit. Women do it.

Bernstein is not back, that was a lame argument from him against Rose, and you could tell it was bad because even Larry disagreed.

Dan was trying to make some analytical argument ("win shares" is a terrible NBA stat per people who know as much) but I think deep down he holds the injury recovery "decision" against Rose like you do. And this was completely unmentioned but he probably doesn't like honoring a sex creep (though never convicted of anything, Rose at least affirmed in testimony he's a creep)

it's not like a jersey retirement has historically merited some objective standard. What was Chet Walker's jersey number? nobody knows! meanwhile, whenever anyone even in training camp thought of taking #1, thousands of millenials would spam that player and the team with rose flower emojis

prime Bernstein would've applauded the Reinsdorfs for their marketing efforts surrounding an 'undeserving' player still getting them a good home gate revenue after his injuries hurt that family financially for so many years

Yup

Bernstein today "all sporting events should be played indoors" I'm sure has roots in global warming.

Yikes at the casual anti-semitism, but Bernstein has actually had this thought for two decades, now, well before his woke heel turn. It's part of the scientificization of pro sports put on by pseudo-intellectuals that brought us the SABR movement and endless replays because "you have to get the call right". Does it actually help the sport more than it hurts to have every pro game played on artificial turf under cool white LED lights instead of outdoors? Who cares, it's what a dumb person thinks a smart person would say!

Not well.

Dan shouldn't want to take a walk down memory lane with Rose's days with the Bulls because he subtle racism may be remembered.

Rose was an immature kid. And he grew out of it. Like a lot of us. So, what was the racism?

Bernstein used to mock Derrick Rose for his stupidity. Turns out this time Bernstein was right.
