I think I like the false hope.

Keep the opiate spigot flowing. More please.

I now know why people say “a little hope is a dangerous thing”.

 

[ZOMBIE@CTESPN]

Media wants this trade to happen as much as we do lol

 

[Les Grossman]

I don’t get the argument about how CHI has OL to trade when that’s exactly what Wilson is bitch about, right? Why would they trade away Wilson for OL depth when that’s what would keep Wilson happy in SEA?

Hopefully this illustrates to everyone how the media is in the business of selling your attention, not actually informing you of real things.

Simply fodder for discussion. Nothing more to do during this crappy offseason. ^ CCS still seems butthurt about not getting their Oompa Loompa NOW. Having to wait & not know burns the chaps, even if it makes more sense to be an option later.

Still very little mention of how it saves SEA big $$ to consider this after June 1st. Yet media still taunts fans like it should've already happened or will any time. Nope. That's my only point - that it's really not an option til later, so I agree we can put it to rest til then.

Later is better for Bears also, so they don't blow their '21 draft on this. Fill the holes, then blow future drafts to get him with other needs also met. Makes sense to me. ?‍ ZERO worry or predictions it might happen though.

still think its a reason that jimmy graham is still around

Agreed. He had a point about Wilson possibly liking Bears' OL being better (assuming T is fixed), but that last part about "trade bait" makes zero sense. Maybe he intended "BAIT" = Bears OL = bait for Wilson to want to join and not how it reads as "Bears have OL to trade to SEA".

Another example of poorly written "media". Meh

They should have titled the article 10 reasons why we need to keep this alive so that we have something to write about.

Dumb... they lost their starting corner after offering him a deal, they would have needed Fuller, price tag may have been issue if there was no clear dollar extension agreement.

 

[mecha]

lol. the quarterback exclusively isn't going to be the difference maker on the Chicago Bears in 2021, or any year after for that matter. deep down you all know this. let go of the fantasy that will ratfuck 7 future drafts.

I just had lunch yesterday with an attorney friend. Russell Wilson's agent lives just down the street from him. Trying now to set up a lunch. I'll see what I can do.

Posted a while back I have suspicions a trade has already been agreed upon. Since the meeting in Fargo look at the moves Pace has made. All about when its announced and the cap imo.
