I know we all think Big Red, but wasn't it George Offman that cried about the "drops"?

Wasn't the entire B&B opening montage comprised of his drops? I thought they had him on during one of the anniversary shows and they were having a laugh about it.

How about you just go? Rogue is the leader of the JDC Twitter patrol. It has provided us with hundreds of pages of entertainment.

If WSCR and other sports radio programs were more interesting, we wouldn’t need to waste so much time on these ancillary matters.

Agree with most of you, the Walton interview wasn't the greatest. The rambling got old quick. The Maui shit at the end was ridiculous and not funny.

Danny, please tell us why you think Nick Wright is great. Most of the country is missing this.

Re Nick Wright...

He's one of my best friends in the world. He was a groomsman in my wedding. I've known him since my Sophomore year of college. He's both brilliant and kind hearted. His family is amazing. Both his parents went to Harvard, his sister is a top lawyer at a top firm in NYC, he aced his standardized tests but has a passion for sports broadcasting so set out to rise to the top of his profession if he was going to play in the candy store instead of apply his intellect to more important matters. He wakes up at 3:30 every morning to do a 3 hour TV show and then goes home, naps, helps his daughters with their homework, then hosts a 2 hour national radio show and is one of the few commentators on that level who actually stay up and watches all the games and doesnt just give you platitudes and rely on producer recaps the next day. He's insanely well sourced. He's analytical so his arguments are always based in statistical backing.

He's philanthropic. He's socially conscious. He speaks from an educated place on social issues that matter. His wife and children are like my family. Other than his nose and goofy new TV hairstyle you won't get me to say a bad word about that man, he's my brother.

Re Walton... He's a crazy person and I loved it. I've also wanted to interview him for years. His answer on destigmatizing weed by saying he doesnt endorse anything you can't have for breakfast and do all day absolutely cracked me up. The reaction we got from that interview was tremendous. Again, different strokes for different folks.

Can we can less (Pro Bowl QB) Trubisky bashing and try holding Nagy accountable? It really seems like forced groupthink.

Also Maui Jim Beach Boy is the running gag between Walton and Benneti. Every game they've done since the Maui Invitational Walton has made a joke about not knowing Jason's name. This was a viral thing on social media during that tournament and was addressed again multiple times when he did the Sox game with Jason. If you were unaware of that I could imagine being quite confused but yes, he knows who Jason is, it's a joke.

If there's one thing media people are good at its talking themselves up. Never has "raising a family on two jobs" been recounted so dramatically and breathlessly. What you describe is reality for tens of millions of people in the USA alone.

Got nothing against Nick Wright though, even I think analytics are dumb and do more to ruin than help sports.

I hope Uncle Jerry wasn't serious because the Walton broadcast was the most entertaining game I recall watching in years.

Im no longer in the business of being on the (Pro Bowl QB) Trubisky Defense Force, but its no less ridiculous to defend Nagy than Mitch.

He's caved to the pressure. When Spiegs covered for him a couple of weeks ago, I've never heard 2 people rip (Pro Bowl QB) Trubisky more. All because of Nick Foles. I sent a lot of angry texts that day.

The biggest problem with socially conscious woke sports radio is that it takes the same dug in position that they do as to who should be hitting clean-up for the Cubs. Zero nuance and no room for a conversation. It's 'end of discussion' radio.

Foles has been worst than (Pro Bowl QB) Trubisky in every way for the majority of his career.

I don't see him doing that. I think he just realized Mitch isn't who he thought he was. You'll get there, Nas.

I missed the Walton & Benetti game, but I'm not really a Walton fan outside of Basketball announcing.

Bill Walton's answer about pot was funny.

Yup, when you scroll through the podcast options there may be one segment per day from all the shows that is actually podcast worthy, the rest is hosts, producers, and guests repeating the exact same takes all day long. Moon was the only guy last pre season that was bringing up concerns about the lack of success/reps for Mitch, all the rest just blindly agreed with Nagy's strategy. Hub still squashes any callers/guests that try to blame Bears ownership.

Well, that wasn't the question about Wright. Didn't ask you to blow him. Could give a shit about where his parents went to school and shit. I already knew he was an entitled asswipe.

Exactly. I used to regularly rip Parkins via text for his constant defense of Mitch. At some point last season he clearly saw the light. Foles wasn’t even on the radar at that time.

He probably listened to Travis destroy Peter King today and made the sensible choice to stay away .

Nah, he's too busy changing diapers and feeding the infant aka creating show content to bother with Twitter wars.
