Post subject:  3/13: Meet the New Bears!

If transition with Mac & Spiegs following the Jenny Jones-looking Kerry Sayers' 1P "Scoreboard Update" is pre-empted, there is a good reason. The Bears have scheduled a 1P press conference at Halas Hall to introduce the newest Bears' free agents. New TE Martellus Bennett & LT Jermon Bushrod will be introduced, and not only will Comcast SportsNet & CSNChicago.com carry the presser, but it'll also be carried live on 670 The SCORE & 670thescore.com. Usually if it's during the "B & B Show", you know what that means, complete with random soundbites & silliness while the guys are talking. It's unclear if Bennett & Bushrod will join Terry & Dan this afternoon after the press conference, but here's what else the guys might discuss...

*Shorthanded Bulls' Last Ever Visit to Sacramento?
*When Will the Heat Lose Another Game? 19 Straight Wins
*Dwight Howard's BIG Return to Orlando for the Lakers
*More NFL Free Agent Moves; Possible Cuts?
*Spring Training Update w/White Sox & Cubs
*USA 1 Win Away from Semifinal Date in World Baseball Classic


All of that and perhaps this from Bernstein..."No Excuses for Cutler" found here:

Same as the Old Bears

Instead of asking, or answering, the question of these moves getting the Bears closer to a championship? A refrain that is about as meatball as they come. It is easily asked and answered as to whether the moves get them closer to the playoffs. A resounding yes.

Playing in the toughest division in the NFL standing pat is the same as moving backwards, and addressing two of the more glaring needs means that this team, on paper, is now a better playoff contender.

Still, while I expect them to shout down most of those who call in to their show, regardless of what they say or think. I also expect them to revisit the Derrick Rose soap opera by asking and answering their own questions, as it seems that because Rose talks to everyone but those affiliated with CBS its a story that other have moved on from. Dan and Terry have their mysterious sources who tell them things, there'll be more on this, just because.

No transition today. Press Conference is underway at Halas Hall. Bears' GM Phil Emery is speaking now.

No commentary over this presser? Wow, this must be some serious information about football systems.

This is almost as exciting and informative as a little lotto drawing on a day that you don't have a little lotto ticket. Maybe they can cover those live as well. Why do they make these guys speak at pressers if there is nothing at all of substance to be said?

Poop jokes and specific christian bashing would be better IMO.

As long as they don't talk sports, I'll be happy.

By the way, if you're looking for coverage of the New Pope, WBBM Newsradio 780 AM/105.9 FM is where to go.

Right now on 670 The SCORE, new Bears' LT Jarmon Bushrod is on the Hawthorne Racecourse Hotline with Dan & Terry.

It's me.... ankle-lohse-ing spondalitis. You're dealing with me: it could be a real possibility.

Confirmed; you're dealing with me.

Speaking of, nobody's signed Kyle Lohse yet, right?

If the Cubs could get him relatively/cheap he could be a prime guy to flip to someone if he pitches over his head with the fury of a million redbird fans.

Author:  redskingreg [ Wed Mar 13, 2013 1:49 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: 3/13: Meet the New Bears!

I figured my Cardinals would make a run at Lohse once Carpenter went down. He's probably asking way too much.

New Bears' TE Martellus Bennett now on the Hawthorne Racecourse Hotline with the guys.
