Let's review:

The test of journalistic integrity is not whether the reporter's story eventually becomes accurate. The test of journalistic integrity is whether the reporter's story was both true and accurate at the time of reporting.

Furthermore, never trust anything that an idiot says. That not only goes for sports reporting, it goes for everything.

Drinky: Fuck you!!!! Woo hooo!!!!!

Beardown: Attaboy.

It may have been though. That's the point.

The Bears may be denying that shutting him down was an option, but the fact that Jay Cutler has been "Week To Week" for four weeks now, and even today, Trestman said "We'll see how he feels" next week indicates that it may be a season ender.

Maybe 50 years ago. But look at who the #1 cable news channel is. We have lowered out standards quite a bit

So what you are saying is that even if Jay doesn't play another snap and is on the table the day after the season ends, because Cutty wasn't in the OR sliced open as Matty was reporting, he is wrong no matter what the truth ends up being?

If I say there is gonna be an earth quake in California within the next year and it happens, are you gonna give me credit? If you do, you're an idiot. Same thing if I say there will be a Hurricane that hits New Orleans in August. Don't give me credit for that either.

That has to be up there in terms of the dumbest replies ever typed on this board.

Beardown a reasonable question. Many years down the road will you finally tell us who you are and when you worked at 670 and why you are so horribly bitter towards B and B and Matty in particular>

It was a perfect analogy. Some research on high ankle sprains will show you there are 3 grades. Google it. The worst is ligament damage. Which Cutler himself said they were worried about a few weeks ago. Sometimes it heals on its own. Sometimes not. If it doesn't heal, you need surgery. Drinky took the leap based on Cutler's words. No inside info. No source.

I'm guessing it's healing on its own since he was allowed to practice today.

Never worked for the Score. Don't know anybody in media. I don't want to meet any of them. Always have said that. Don't believe me. That's fine. I don't care. I've also said Bernstein is my favorite Chicago radio host.

But, years from now, I would like you to tell me why you're bitter towards me.

Baby McNown:

I'm not bitter towards you. I just think that you are a raging asshole when it comes to the B and B show and Matty. That's not really something you can deny

I listen to Bernstein's show. Stupid things are said. A lot of stupid things come from drinky. I comment on a sports radio message board. Isn't that what B&B do?

I used to rip on North on this board, too. No longer. Why? Cuz I don't hear him anymore. Make sense?

Baby McNown:

What Beardown does when it comes to B&B and poor little Matty is 100% deserved.

It aint the six minutes. Its what happens in those six minutes.

I'm not gonna opps at all. You're an asshole about everything Matty related. To the point of it being obsessive.

The bottom line: If drinky doesn't behave like a complete idiot and if he doesn't say stupid things, nobody on this board would rip on him. Just don't be stupid. Like Bernstein tells his callers.

Drinky should offend the sensibilities of anybody who isn't stupid. Which means that B&B callers love drinky. He's one of them. It's only fitting he answers their calls.

Thank you for illustrating my point perfectly.

Thank you for showing everybody you're with the dumb B&B callers and dumb drinky. We all suspected. Now we know.

LOL. Suspected? Dude I"m a charter member of the ALS. You don't have very good powers of perception do ya.

Thanks for the laughs Baby. You referring to someone as a raging asshole and obsessive is hilarious

But do tell. How is asking somebody who is an obsessive asshole about somebody on the radio whom they have never met why they act that way being part of an ALS? Or does that just fit into your Beardown "I'm right any anybody who so much as says Matty doesn't suck is 100% wrong!" narrative?

Why do I have to meet him? He's on the radio acting a fool and talking stupid? You telling me drinky turns smart when he's off the air? I doubt it. If he does, I don't care. Then my question would be why not be smart on the air?

Bernstein has never met Tim Tebow or Tony LaRussa, but he knows enough from their behavior, words and actions to rip on them. What's the difference?

LOL. Keep on going man.

Legit question. You don't have an answer, cuz you know I have a point.

Why do you have to meet stupid public figures in order to criticize them for being stupid?

You have no point Beardown. Trying to talk reasonably with you about anything B and B related is an exercise in futility. Somebody could write a 3 page dissertation on why Matty is good and you wouldn't give a flying fuck. It's actually kinda pathetic.

Just wondering why you won't answer my qustion. It's a simple question. You said you have to meet public figures in order to criticize them. Why? If that's the case, there would be no newspapers, talk radio or TV talk shows.

I would like to meet that person that writes a 3-page dissertation on why drinky is good, by the way. There is no way that person exists? Unless it's you. In fact, I want you to write it. I want it on the board by tomorrow.

No, they couldn't.

You implied that I had to meet him to criticize him.

Whatever. Are you gonna write that 3-page paper on why drinky is great?

Ahhhhh so I implied. I never said that. So are you now going to admit for the class that I never said that?

Drinky is good because.....umm....hmmm...
