The Counsell Of Trust

@Taylor_McGregor Jfc Cubs fans are slow. Martin is opening so that Rea doesn't have to face Schwarber and Harper as many times, and we can keep Rea in deeper in the game. Though tbh I wanted to see Martin get more high leverage appearances. He's a stud, and I think he can fill that role.

Riley Martin will start tomorrow for the #Cubs.

@crow_armstrong Milner. Maton will be alright. I want to see more of Riley Martin. He was a stud at Iowa

Who is in the circle of trust rn? Theilbar and Palencia?

@CubsZone It's early in the season and that's when teams typically figure out where guys fit in their pens. Clearly Jacob Webb isn't a high leverage arm. Should go Thielbar-Maton-Palencia, you can put Milner in that group too. Everyone else is low leverage or DFA worthy

Just unreal the bullpen decisions in this game.

Source tells me Jonathan the Tortoise is stable. Please god

@DeadlineDayLive @LASK_Official Guess he just likes to sit with his own thoughts

What single play was your peak as a sports fan?

@NerdingonNFL I don't get the Packers hype when Parsons is rumored to be out for several months...and even if he does come back early he's not going to be 100%. He's the backbone of that defense. I see the Lions winning the division, with the Bears getting second. Both are playoff teams.

@OzzyNFL @NerdingonNFL 49ers vs Raiders is happening

🇲🇽 BREAKING Roger Goodell has officially announced next season’s international game in Mexico City. It will mark the league’s return to Azteca Stadium (now Banorte Stadium) for the first time since 2022. Both the San Francisco 49ers and Arizona Cardinals are rumoured to be the designated home team in this game.

@nigel__2008 @Novassports @BearsShowYo The Chris Conte play in 2013 is worse than both

@Novassports @BearsShowYo Nah you not lying though. The double doink had to be the worse thing to happen. … Cody should’ve been arrested right after that kick💯😂

This play was truly a blessing in disguise man.

@dabearsblog I might be in the minority, but I don't want us to get into the second round by means of a bye. I want us to get into the second round by winning our first playoff game since 2010.

The one seed dream is dying…

@softdrinktv 2021 is still the best season of all time

This has to be the best NFL regular season out of the last 5 years, easily...

@NerdingonNFL I think the Bengals opponents are finalized too

Next season’s opponents for the Browns

@DetroitAce313 @DetSparty_ A third place schedule involves the 49ers, Commanders, and Colts. Those games won't necessarily be easy. Minnesota is going to really benefit from a fourth place schedule, but 1st/2nd/3rd is not that significant of a difference in the NFCW/NFCE/AFCS.

@DetSparty_ That third place schedule is what’s going unnoticed. We gon body bag all the trash teams next year😂💯🤷🏽‍♂️

Third place schedule Getting healthy Full year of Dan play calling Brad gets back in his bag Glasgow on a rocket ship to Mars

@LaPantera73 @MaxCubFan @BarstoolChief Conference record would apply at that point

@TrustDaCounsell @MaxCubFan @BarstoolChief Even if we have the H2H against SF? Does that not apply in 3-way tie breakers?

Three games to go Odds are if the Bears go 2-1 they will be the 2 seed and have a home playoff. If they go 1-2 with the two losses being GB & DET then they possibly miss the playoffs all together. I am STRESSED THE FUCK OUT & it's only monday morning

@MrFran_CR I play 3.3 exe hognado and I typically beat this deck

Most braindead cr deck of all time

@MaxCubFan @BarstoolChief If we finish with the same record as the Lions and 49ers, we are the third team.

@BarstoolChief Wouldn't that 1-2 scenario likely have them getting in and San Fran misses out?

@dabearsblog I wish the Seahawks lost, they certainly deserved to. Would've opened another back door into the playoffs where just a win against SF and a SEA loss to LAR would've gotten us in. I'm feeling very confident in us right now. But we've still got work to do.

This day is breaking perfectly for the Bears.

Jane Wickline is so incredibly unfunny. Shitty episode, but that's been on par for almost every episode of SNL this season outside of the one with Glen Powell

@CubsZone @MLBBruceLevine This is a good thing?

Devin Williams reportedly preferred to sign with the Cubs over the Mets, but the Cubs' offer didn't get to the $51 million that Williams got, per @MLBBruceLevine.
