I agree with your take on backing off on destroying Boylen. Same exact situation as Mitch. I actually feel horrible for Mitch. He was a dumb ass inexperienced imbecile before Pace decided to draft him. Pace should be publicly stoned for not only drafting him, but also for putting Mitch through all of this. Hell, Mitch can join in on the stoning of Pace if he would like. Mitch may be dumber than a jar of prunes, but he's a good kid and didn't ask for any of this.

Im so tired of hearing "he didnt ask for any of this" That is such a weak bull shit excuse. When he entered the NFL draft he became 100% responsible for his on field performance. We cant just let this guy off the hook because he didnt ask the bears to draft him, he also didnt tell the Bears not to draft him. This city is lacking some dog gone accountability.

Your disappointment in him, Jacob, mostly comes from a place of disappointment that's based on where he was drafted. His draft position = not something he can control. If he didn't work hard or got in trouble off the field it would be different. But that's not the case.

I read somewhere the the Hawks did have a first rounder on the table for Lehner but thought they could do better. Once they got the offer from Vegas they tried to go back to the team that offered a 1st and they had already traded that pick away. Stan Bowman at his finest.

I saw the same, and I just don't totally understand how you have that little feel for that kind of stuff

Jordan Bohanon is one of my arch enemies and I was not afraid to let him know when I occasionally ran into him at The Summit, so I think I have reserved the right to speak freely. I called into a sports talk show yesterday with the intention of ripping ryan pace apart but unfortunately the host took way too long to get to the callers and I arrived at my destination before he took my call. Probably for the best though, I most likely would have ended up on some sort of banned list that you dont want to see yourself on.

There's no doubt that won't be the last time they hear from you

Here we go. I am also completely against slandering Jim Boylen to his face like that. From what I've seen he does seem like a genuinely good guy and the way he looks down after and keeps moving puts a small tear in my heart. I've also heard from discussions with friends of mine in the media (the author of SGCTC) that he's a good guy. Sorry you get this hate, Jim.

I don't blame people for saying terrible things about Mitch Trubisky, though. He sucks, I hate him, hate the way he talks, hate the way he looks, and most importantly the way he plays football. It's repulsive. Yeah I get it was the guy that wears his ass for a hat that put him in this position, but welcome to Chicago football, buddy. We used a second overall pick on you to be the quarterback of this franchise, you get paid a lot of money, and I hate you. If he had any care for the fans he would have pulled a Ryan Gosling in Remember the Titans and put himself on the sideline in favor of someone better. If you run into him, you can shove him to the ground and say Jack Carrico sends his regards.

Mitch Trubisky won't be able to walk down the sidewalk this week.

"Who's this Jack guy and why is he sending his regards?"

I just want to point something out that I just learned. No bears QB has ever thrown 30 touchdown passes in a single season. Erik Kramer hold the single season record with 29, Erik is a bear for life.
