Especially here in Chicago

I used to listen to these guys until they started having Dave Wannstedt as a regular contributor. Especially here in Chicago where he is one, if not, the worst coaches in our history. How dare they ask NFL opinions from this BUM. To me at this point they lost all credibility, who'said next Phil Emery, Marc Trestmann?

Have to disagree re: Neil Armstrong. That 79 team that went to the playoffs was pretty good and played the Eagles very tough. I think that was the year Mike Phipps subbed in for Avellini and won like 7 games in a row. As I recall Wannie had a lot of draft input and was a poor judge of talent. Still mind-boggling that they didn't have a single Pro Bowl player during his tenure. Or not. I thought that was the case.

His segment is pretty solid. Probably the best guest on the score.

Best segment on the score now is Olin Kreutz. He's my guy.

ha gave them (hub, big cat, olin) a shot after the game yesterday... but quickly switched over to 720 when i realized i needed an old man yelling at me to make me feel happy after a bears loss.

re: wanny on M&H, i guess i was too young to really appreciate the dumpster fire that the wanny years were, so to me he's just a goofy character with a funny sounding voice... so his segment is definitely a fun listen for me

I've been much impressed by Kreutz so far, very articulate, using metaphors like "anchor" for butt.

I think Olin is the closest we'll get to honest commentary on the Bears, besides Hamp. But Hamp generally is incoherent.

I've been much impressed by Kreutz so far, very articulate, using metaphors like "anchor" for butt. Hub should not be on the postgame show. He has too many appearances now on the Bears for him to be anywhere near objective.

Hey, random question...does anyone happen to know the nickname of the Herscher H.S. football team?

Wannstedt is "fine" and actually has a wealth of knowledge despite his tenure here. Maybe you want another Score Part Timer Expert hit?

Wanny wasn't that bad - Gibron, Armstrong were far worse. Wanny did much better with the Dolphins - 3 double-digit-win seasons out of 5. I think he has plenty of cred to give valid analysis and opinions.

Have to disagree re: Neil Armstrong. That 79 team that went to the playoffs was pretty good and played the Eagles very tough. I think that was the year Mike Phipps subbed in for Avellini and won like 7 games in a row. As I recall Wannie had a lot of draft input and was a poor judge of talent. Still mind-boggling that they didn't have a single Pro Bowl player during his tenure. Or not. I thought that was the case.

Anyway if you held me to it I would have sworn it was Pardee not Armstrong in your scenario.

Edit: back to the spirit of this thread, I've stopped being shocked that Wanny routinely offers good, insightful thoughts as a broadcaster.

Several hosts on SCR used to refer to Hub as a "company man" before the Bears cut him loose. Now he has little love for them (Heh-heh)
