Yesterday (and this wasn’t the only time recently) Matt reads off a list that some random on CBS Sports or ESPN wrote such as “top 10 tight ends” “best qb position the next 5 years,” and Dan gets upset that the Bears weren’t ranked higher. He gets really confused and irritated “ummm okay? Not sure how you can rank xyz over [Bears player) but I guess!”

I know it’s the offseason and probably not much to talk about but I’d much prefer them shooting the shit rather than getting mad over a list (although it’s probably fake mad).

I love the show and I'm genuinely grateful Dan and Matt are producing it. I understand they need to be paid for the quality entertainment they're delivering, so I don't resent the ads.

That said, I've noticed the shows are getting noticeably shorter while the ads keep multiplying and stretching longer. The window guys ad especially has worn out its welcome.

It's a minor gripe, but it's beginning to chip away at my enjoyment.

I feel like Dan is going too hard on the DA causing injuries thing. If DA running his players into the ground was the cause of the long list of injuries to the secondary, I would assume Ben Johnson would step in and say something. Ben has garnered a lot of trust over the last year and change as the Bears HC and I trust he’d speak up to someone who works under him if the players weren’t properly warming up.

Also, some practices are open to the media. I don’t think the media all have degrees in sports medicine, but a lot have been around the game for a long time. If they can see the players skipping warmups and getting right into the nitty gritty, I assume they would notice the change from years past and report on it.

I think it is more likely we are the 1 in 10,000 chance it’s just bad luck, and we should be thankful it is just training camp.

Bears.

I knew “Port Chester University” (PCU) sounded familiar
