I heard the LoHo interview and I'm beginning to wonder whether Trestman is going to be just like Lovie Smith in the way he treats reporters.

It's a great question, Mini-Ditka, but I don't think we will be able to answer it until the end of the season.

Be patient.

Too early to suggest. Lovie Smith did get snotty with reporters I felt the last couple of years he was head coach.

HELL YEAH THIS BUM CAN'T COACH HE LOOKS LIKE A burrito EVERYONE HATES HIM AND HE'S ALREADY WON LESS GAMES (0) THAN LOVIE (~90-100ISH) AND THE DEFENSE HATES HIM AND HESTER WON'T RETURN FOR HIM.

I hope so. Why should I care how the coach treats the reporters? Rip them mother fuckers, what do I care?

I also don't care how the coach treats reporters, but I do hope Trestman earns the respect of the locker room the way Lovie did. I did like Lovie as a coach, but his neglect of the offense had gone on for far too long. I hope Trestman does what Lovie failed to do, and that's staff the other side of the ball with competent coaches with modern, operational strategies and game plans.

Trestman said more interesting things in his meeting with reporters this morning than Lovie has over the past few years.

I didn't hear it. What did he say that was interesting?

Couple of the big ones I read were that Hester will be a specialist, and won't workout with the WRs as of now. E-Rod is seen as a FB, but happy to see him working out with BMarsh & Alshon.

Also admitted he hadn't met with Cutler, and that no one has the playbook because it's not done yet. And that the Bears will install the read option.

I knew i could count on you to keep me informed.

Thanks fella.

So true

Why does it matter that the coach is interesting? Who gives a shit?

Just win games, and you can walk in the room and slug Virginia McCaskey, and then high five Osama Bin Laden for all I care.

If he gets to the Super Bowl by year 3 we can talk about Lovie status

You don't see this as a problem? He's been on the job for over 2 months. Not having a playbook is a problem but not meeting with your most important offensive player is even worse. How do you hire a guy without know what offense he plans to run? What Trestman and Emery are doing really worries me. Hopefully in the end it works out fine but right now there are a shit load of read flags.

Jay gets lit up enough. Is the read option really in his best interests?

He could get there this season. If they don't destroy the defense I really believe this Bears team could win the SB. I know I said the same thing last season but I really believe the offense will be fine. Not sure why Lance Louis (By far their best OL last season) was brought back but other than that I don't have any issues with their offensive moves. Kellen Davis will probably go someone and learn how to catch on game days instead of just in practice.

The problem with Lovie was how condescending he was to reporters. The problem with a lot of these sports teams is that the coaches regularly lie to the reporters and that's just seen as acceptable behavior.

Being fair I think you've said that the last seven straight years.

I don't have an issue with it. You may get something off the record but I don't see a benefit in giving another team an advantage by being honest. I want the coaches to be smart enough to bullshit the media. I was a fan of Jauron and Lovie. The Ditka stuff never meant much to me. The Bears quit on him. The Bears never quit on Lovie and to some degree the same is true for Jauron.

This is true. The offense could never help a SB defense. One of the most frustrating things to watch.

Wtf? Seriously the new coach has not met with the starting QB yet? How in the hell does that happen? That is very concerning to me. I am more than willing to give Trestman time to prove himself but this is not a good start.
