We are so back! Ill get right into it. As you know this newsletter is where I blow off all my steam and since it has been a long while since my last post, you can imagine all the pressurized anger I have built up inside. I don't want to blow my load all in one post, so I will pepper in my thoughts thought coming newsletters.

But right now I want to focus on a dude that goes by the name of Kris Bryant, KB or AKA the most overrated soft bum in Chicago. He stinks. I don't give a shit that he was rookie of year or won an MVP 5 years ago. The dude has regressed like crazy. It's not normal for a player like him to get worse as he ages into his prime years, but it does happen. And boy did that happen with this guy. I have never seen a guy get blown away by 89 mph fastballs more than this guy. It's amazing to watch. It looks like him and happ went all freaky Friday on our asses and ate a fortune cookie and now happ is playing like bryant did in his fresh/soph year and KB is now happ from last two years. I got to bring up the injuries. First of all I think for the most part, he is hurt NOT INJURED. To put it simply, hes A BITCH. Baseball is a grind. everyone in some way is sore or hurting. Now, you cant blame a player for getting injured so here is how we should look at it. Maybe he isn't a bitch and he really is always hurt and injury prone-not good, or he is just flat out average at BEST-Not great considering how he started. and what his asking price is gona be. And in between his averageness are slumps that involve him not being able to get around on an 89 mph fastball for 3 months

He is also such a great example of how stat lines don't always tell the whole story. Everyone wants to point to his serviceable BA and his home runs but that is cuz my guy is the Garbage time king! Nothing gets KB more locked in at the plate than a 8 run deficit or lead.

Somebody is going to over pay for KB and I just pray to God that it's not the cubs.

Also, since I just ripped KB a new one, I fully expect him to hit 3 home runs as soon as hes back in the lineup. Pick of the week: Kris bryant homerun +12000

I missed the last newsletter, but it feels good to be back. How sad is it that Jim Boylen getting fired is the highlight of being a Bulls fan the last like five years? I love Artie K so far, the man ended an appearance on a Chicago radio show saying, "thank you Chicago" - he is a man of the people! The fact that it took this long for him to fire that fat, bald, sweaty clown I think definitely shows that the Reinsdorf's still think they know anything about sports and have a hand in what he is doing, which disappoints the hell out of me. While you're conducting the AK-47 train, I'm roaming the aisles checking tickets, let's roll!

You might've thought I'd have a comment without having anything to say about Mitch Trubisky, but you were wrong! I'm so sick of hearing that name and seeing that face. I think the internet should block anything that has to do with him until he shows any sign of being a competent quarterback. I saw a video on the Bears Instagram page of him hitting a wide-open Jimmy Graham on a pass in practice and people are commenting bullshit like "10 looks good!" and it got me so unreasonably fired up. I love that people want to see him do well and keep giving him another chance, but it feels like watching a friend go back to an ex-girlfriend over and over that everyone knows is the worst person in the world, and you can't do anything about it. It sucks man. And, on that throw, Trubisky's feet were pointing one direction, and he threw the ball in another. That's not looking off a defense, that is bad quarterback footwork. I was the back-up quarterback on my second grade football team, and I know that. How has dumb Mitch not corrected this? I don't have any hope for him this season.

Have a great day, Chicago
