Nothing, and I mean NOTHING, gets my balls tingling like a full slate of college football on a Saturday. Waking up with a mild hangover, walking to Starbucks, texting your boys about coming over for the 11am games and maybe hitting a bar for the 230 games?? Best time of the year hands down.

I've kind of exhausted the Fields conversation. The last point which you've touched on is how bad the OLine is likely to be. Chances are Mac Jones will have a great rookie year, probably better than the 5 rookie qbs drafted before him, because of the system he is in. Not really sure where I'm going with that one but just a reminder that I will never regret the Bears taking Fields over him.

Jack Silverstein @ReadJack put out a cool twitter thread last night about his ranking of the top 10 Bears QBs of all time and it was Eye Opening. Cutler-McMahon-Harbaugh rounded out the top 3 with Trubisky falling at 8th. Thinking about that in comparison to other big time high payroll franchises: the Packers Rodgers-Favre-Starr, Cowboys Staubach-Aikman-Romo, 49ers Montana-Young-Tittle.

I've got nothing in addition to what you've said about the Bulls offseason other than that I think Millsap would be a great fit and would love another big who can defend.

You are so right! Nothing better than the next four months. I remember leaving the house at 4AM to get to Joe's 11AM game in Oxford. After his game, we would sit down and let Joe's anger subside, drink frosty cold beers, order pizza and watch all of the rest of the Saturday games. Football heaven with a full day on Michael Doherty's deck watching games coming in a close second.

Thanks for the summary of the general White Sox fan. If anyone can seriously disagree with that assessment, you are kidding yourself.
