It was a big day for the #Bears. Here's the good and the not so good of free agency so far.
Plus, John Smoltz still sucks, I loved the FS1 Cuba/PR broadcast, the misguided Atlanta #Hawks promotion, and..."we got weights in fish!"

It's wait and see for the offseason to play out for
@danbernstein.bsky.social and @mattabbatacola.bsky.social on Garrett Bradbury.
Thoughts, Bears fans?
With Tremaine Edmunds out, what's D'Marco Jackson's role going to be with the Bears in 2026?

The #Bears now have money to burn for the '26 roster, as much as $44 million (!). Their new 2nd-round pick is in the "sweet spot" of this draft, too. Also Friday Feedback Friday fun.

"The acquisition mattered at the time. His performance mattered. His contribution. He's got all-time great Bears moments. Full stop."

Beyond the #Bears news, this pod has the definitive breakdown of how and when MLB teams should challenge ball/strike calls. It's good stuff.
