Transition topic.

Jay Cutler trade or today's trade. What's the biggest Chicago sports news story, etc.

Spiegel and Holmes say it's equal. Goff says Cutler trade and it's not close. Not sure what Bernstein thinks yet because Goff hasn't let him speak so far really

Bernstein will sit that out seeing how over the top in love he was with Cutler when that happened.

I think the Cutler trade. He was instantly the best QB in Bears history and was supposed to be the savior.

This was a tanking team trading a #2 starter to a competing team for prospects. Happens every season.

Yup.

Hopefully it works out better for the Cubs...

I'd go as far as to say the Cutler trade, at the time it was made, is one of the biggest trades in the history of pro sports.

No way. Many better quarterbacks than him have been traded. Eli for Rivers is clearly bigger as just one example.

If it's purely about # of Chicago people being innerested in a 'local' sports story, it's obviously Cutler.

That was more of a draft day trade.

The Cutler deal had a ton of history behind it, and it came out of absolutely nowhere. Q being dealt has been brewing for months and last night it was looking clear that it was gonna happen. Rosenthal had it but deleted the tweet, I'm guessing the Sox owe him.

The Cutler trade was probably one of the top 2 or 3 single biggest front office moves in Chicago sports history.

The Quintana move is a big deal, but I'm not sure its the biggest trade of the last few years for either team.

Biggest: Stone and Swisher for Santo.

Maybe if I was following this Quintana move on my television, I would agree.
