Why does Bernstein have a need to try to prove how smart he is all the time?
Only total assholes talk like that.

We've been through this before: when he goes home for Thanksgiving dinner, he is surrounded by family members who are lawyers and doctors. Bube takes him aside and gives him a few dollars asking him when he is going to get a real job like his cousin Jimmy, the proctologist.

Assuming that isn't CH, I am starting to believe that he's intentionally trying to be as nonsensical as possible to see if anybody ever calls him on it.

The problem seems to be either a) nobody is reading it or b) nobody is smart enough to understand that it doesn't make sense.

It's like the Mitch Hedberg joke.

My brother is a doctor, my sister is a lawyer, and I hate Thanksgiving.

Has anyone noticed the fact that the quote hypothetically wonders about the Bears future if Leonard Floyd died on the field? Even Bernstein isn't that cruel.

That was the one part I did question - in that he didn't discuss how a gruesome on-field death would impact the business side.

Probably true, actually.

Do you realize what that could do to revenue?

Had me fooled as well. Love the "quick-twitch" reference, which is DB code for wang whipper.

Very good shot at D ROY
