Sox look way hungrier than the Cubs

[Greg Couch @gregcouch]

I’m sure the Bears will take plenty of fans to Gary. I don’t plan to be one of them. It’s an insult to move the Bears to Indiana. I hope Bears fans see that

[Greg Couch @gregcouch]

I realize college sports is all about NIL and transfer portal and things. But today one of my former players just got into a 6-year dental surgery program. One of my former captains recently passed the bar. One is in medical school. To me, that matters a lot more

If the Bears pull this out, the Lions should disband

[Greg Couch @gregcouch]

The Bears made the playoffs. They are going crazy in Gary.

[Greg Couch @gregcouch]

Just told a fellow Bears fan that we have to root for Aaron Rodgers today. He said “You might as well tell me I have to run a 4 minute mile. I can’t do it.”

[Greg Couch @gregcouch]

The Packers always have a backup quarterback better than the Bears starter

[Greg Couch @gregcouch]

I had just about forgotten what it’s like in the hours before an important Bears game

[Greg Couch @gregcouch]

I wonder if the Bears realize how insulting it is to Chicagoans that they would consider moving to Indiana. Why don’t they consider moving to Green Bay while they’re at it?

[Greg Couch @gregcouch]

The Bears tore down beautiful, historic Arlington Park under the hope that they’d get a guarantee that their property taxes wouldn’t ever rise. It’s as if they’ve never been to the Chicago area before and don’t know anything about it

[Greg Couch @gregcouch]

Go Gary Bears!

[Greg Couch @gregcouch]

How could the Cubs possibly have let Keller go? The Cubs aren’t a serious operation

[Greg Couch @gregcouch]

Cubs manage to get absolutely nothing done during winter meetings

[Greg Couch @gregcouch]

The argument that Alabama should not be penalized for losing the big game is absurd. If that’s the standard then Ohio State should still be #1

[Greg Couch @gregcouch]

The College Football Playoff is a made-for-TV event. No way will they leave Notre Dame out. The Irish are worth too much $

[Greg Couch @gregcouch]

Now that the matinee SEC championship game is over, we go on to the main event, the Big Ten championship

[Greg Couch @gregcouch]

The Cubs are doing a great job of sitting around, doing nothing. How have they not signed Brad Keller?

[Greg Couch @gregcouch]

Are the Bears trying to kill me or what?

[Greg Couch @gregcouch]

Little known fact: When the Bears beat Washington 73-0 in the 1940 championship game, Washington’s quarterback was Joe Flacco. He did better against them today

[Greg Couch @gregcouch]

To say that Flacco had a career game today is a little unfair to the Bears defense. I mean he couldn’t have thrown for this many yards the first few years of his career. The forward pass was not legal yet
