...And We're Back

After the Bears' loss to the Commanders, we lamented the embarrassing nature of how they lost. Now they deserve credit for their performance against New England coming off of 11 days rest (and time to game plan). Justin Fields was awesome, the defense forced several turnovers and a Patriots' quarterback to the bench. What will they do against Dallas this Sunday on a short week? Plus, the World Series is set, and it's the Houston Astros against the World (represented by the Phillies).

Our guest this week is childhood friend Anthony Abbate. Aside from being an avid Bears fan, he created the YouTube channel Anthony's Outdoors with his passion for fishing, hiking, hunting, and more. We talk with him about the inspiration for the channel and how he's learned to produce quality content.

The Bears sit at 2-4 after a rather embarrassing Thursday Night loss to the Commanders in which they scored just 7 points. We knew this was coming, but what can we expect this offseason and beyond? Plus, will the Bulls find their way out of basketball hell? What will the Blackhawks do with Jonathan Toews and Patrick Kane? Who's going to manage the White Sox? Will the Cubs be in contention next season? 

Jordan Bernfield of WGN Radio joins Brady to try and answer all of those questions!

The Bears sit at 2-3 after losing to the Vikings last weekend in somewhat heartbreaking fashion. Did we see improvement from Justin Fields and the offense? Brady thinks we did. Now it's a quick turnaround to Thursday Night Football against the Commanders...what can we expect against Carson Wentz and Co.? Also, has the NFL gone too far in protecting their quarterbacks? Who will be the next White Sox manager? A snafu in the Bears' move to Arlington Heights?

After beating the Texans at Soldier Field, the Bears sit at 2-1 heading into their meeting with the New York Football Giants. What will we see from Justin Fields and the offense, especially if David Montgomery doesn't play? The White Sox won't be playing October baseball after a long losing streak put them out of contention. Who might be Tony La Russa's replacement?

The Bulls are in the news ahead of their season with Lonzo Ball having another knee surgery. We shall see how that affects their season early on.

The Bears are 1-1 on the young season after yet another primetime loss to the Green Bay Packers. Ben Heisler of BetSided joins Brady to talk Justin Fields and the Bears. Also, Ben's home state of Kansas just legalized mobile sports betting, what's that been like? Indiana Football is off to a 3-0 start...can the Hoosiers sustain? Wrapping up with baseball, who does Ben think will win the World Series, and who offers the most value at the betting window?

The Bears were able to shock the football world last Sunday and defeat the San Francisco 49ers 19-10 amid a downpour to start the season 1-0. Is it too early to be excited? Will Aaron Rodgers and Co. bring us back down to earth? We'll find out Sunday night in Green Bay. 

Before we talked any bit of football we had to react to the news of the day, that being the passing of Queen Elizabeth II at the age of 96. Kelsey nerds out talking about the British Monarchy as we approach a tumultuous time for the UK. The Bears open their season on Sunday against the 49ers, and Brady gives his on-the-record predictions for the season and for the rest of the league as well. Plus, we get an idea of what the Arlington Park property could look like when the Bears finally take it over.

Mark Carman of CHGO is our guest this week, and he talks Justin Fields, Matt Eberflus and the new defense, attending Serena's final match, and whether or not the White Sox will make the playoffs

We're just a couple of weeks away from the Chicago Bears opening the 2022 season on the Lakefront against the San Francisco 49ers, and Brady and Kelsey talk a little bit about the preseason so far and the return of Roquan Smith. What does it say about Ryan Poles that Smith is not going to be traded? Plus, more on the Arlington Park auction, a top NBA draft pick is out all season, and where has Tom Brady been?

We woke up Tuesday to news out of Bears camp that All Pro linebacker Roquan Smith has requested a trade because the team has not offered him a long term extension that he likes. Will he see the field this year? Also, to our surprise, Willson Contreras and Ian Happ remained on the North Side through the trade deadline last week. Also, Serena Williams will call it a career after this year's US Open. How great has she been??

We're nearing the end of July, which means Trade Deadline time in Major League Baseball. We know the Cubs will likely move Willson Contreras and Ian Happ, but what will the White Sox do? The Bears opened training camp this week, which means it's football season!

Kelsey and her family are in their new house! Speaking of moving, it looks like the City of Chicago's efforts to keep the Bears from moving to the suburbs will be too little too late. Can Chicago support a second NFL franchise? We definitely agree on the answer to that one...
