It's funny how the Raiders were(are?) still LA's team until the Super Bowl ended and how no one cared about the Chargers. Or how differently the Ram's are run...especially the salary cap compared to the Lions (and Bears).

You need cooperation to manipulate the salary cap.

Sad! The Bears have never had a problem spending and Mama Bear lives a very modest life.

The Bears have never had a problem spending when it comes to published and prescribed costs like salary cap.

Total organization spending as in Scouting, Training, Facilities, assistant coaches....that's something we really don't know by comparison. One thing we do know is they repeatedly have is one worst playing surfaces in all the NFL....and do not use the Chicago Park District as a cover. That's soley on the Bears to get right.

They built a $100M state of the art practice and training facility a few years ago. Then they essentially locked fans out of training camp practices.

It was designed by Ryan Pace, so jury’s out on that one.

Northwestern has a $200MM true state of the art facility, Ryan Field is better than Soldier Field and one of the big reasons I quit on the bears in 87 is because they didn't pay players.

Campbell closes the show saying Detroit is the team that “can and will…”.

Fade to black.

Excellent meme potential when this team goes full Detroit by week 5.

That was an amazing close to the show. He paused for what seemed like forever before answering the question, and he seemed like he was going to burst into tears while pondering it. The whole scene was mesmerizing. I hope this fucking lunatic makes the playoffs this year. He's got his players so emotionally amped up that I suspect half of them will end up in jail by late December. Go Lions!

For some reason, I thought the Rams owners were like the Bears or Raiders owners--the team was their main source of wealth. But it looks like the Rams are now owned by the 59th wealthiest person in America, ahead of Dr Ken but behind Deni$. Maybe that was the prior Rams ownership. Or maybe it's the Lakers owners.

The Lions lead the league in points. Now they will build their defense and be a playoff team in 23 and a contender in 24. The Bears are the laughing stock of the division now.

I am guessing Duce has been getting onto their D coordinator quite a bit lately.

One owner(Kroenke) is a serious real estate magnate and his wife is yet another NFL owner from the Walton family.

I don't think that anyone in their organization cares. Duce will tell him what to think I'd guess.

Things lining up perfectly for the Lions. Their GM has made some solid picks so far. Poles is still an unknown.




They're also getting their wide receiver draft pick today.

Does "Cory" not realize that the Rams won a SB due to the trade? Hardly something to mock at.

I belleve "Cory" is Favre Fan's twitter nom de guerre, so it's highly unlikely that he realizes that.
