Word in Chicago: Cody Bellinger is coming back on a 3 year deal with incentives in the contract that if he wants to leave he can walk away at anytime in the three years. I'm sorry anything good he has to say about the City of Chicago and wanting to be here to me is hollow otherwise you would have signed a long time ago before spring training games had started. You're going to have to prove you want to be here in Chicago besides any sort of payday. Most people want to win and show what they can do over a period of time. At their peak. I don't understand how after one good year and two bad ones before that you could say you deserve a max contract. And if the Cubs had made the playoffs and lost in the first game for us in Chicago we can say he got us further than the year or years before and deserve a large contract but not the amount of years or money he was looking for. But Cody is back and let's see if he's even worth the contract the Cubs just gave him.

The Bears: Go ahead and do what you're going to do anyways: draft a quarterback namely Caleb Williams and get rid of Justin Fields. Let's see if this is going to go down the path that other regimes have gone. How many quarterbacks we can ruin. We ruined Justin Fields and are looking to get rid of him after firing nearly your entire offensive staff. To do what exactly? Have Justin or whoever swallow a new play book and see where that gets us with the bare minimum of talent around him. No quality running back. One top notch receiver and and a pretty good tight end. The offensive line is trash. The defense is coming along but we don't know if the head coach is going to be around next year so if the Bears do draft  Caleb Williams he's going to be in the same position as Justin Fields. I honestly believe Caleb Williams is not the best quarterback in the draft and I don't want to be here again looking for another quarterback like the Carolina Panthers. 

Another thing that bothers me is the front office not just being straight up with Fields the last two years whether or he was going to be replaced. I say let the man know right away what the reality is which is he could be traded no matter how much he wants to be in Chicago. I do not believe Caleb Williams is the best qb in the draft which is why I say keep Fields. Last year I said no matter what they do with the qb position they're going to have to put people around him in order to succeed. And they did not do that last year and here we are again with the same conundrum. Bears gm's and coaches should never unpack their suitcases because the Bears will not hesitate to ride you out on the rails. I say Ran Poles and Eberflus is tied to each other at this point because of the situation being the same as last year and it was not Poles who put the Bears in a position to win. It was Eberflus who took over the defense after his coordinator suddenly resigned. Though Poles didn't hire Eberflus he's tied with him as far as success. If you ask me if anyone should go it would be Poles because he flat out doesn't know what he's doing. I've said every regime wants their own players so I say go ahead and draft Caleb Williams. Do what you think is best but the clock is ticking.
