I’m not a music expert but how does Billy Joel not make the list? I also would have liked to have seen Don Henley, John Fogerty, Carly Simon and Randy Newman

@TheConnorPils How is this non intentional? These are major league pitchers. Cubs need to protect!
English
Adam throws not one, but two straight pitches at Matt Shaw’s head. The Padres hit Nico Hoerner in the head a few innings ago. They threw multiple pitches at Seiya’s head last night. None of this looks intentional but if I’m the Cubs, I’m getting absolutely sick and tired of it.

Trump defames Zelenskyy: "He's always looking to purchase missiles. Listen, when you start a war, you gotta know you can win a war. You don't start a war against somebody that's 20 times your size and then hope that people give you some missiles. (2025)

@DodgersNation They also need to know that they will lose two of three. Book it.

3 things Dodger fans NEED to remember for this weekend’s series vs the Cubs 🍿
- It’s Pete Crow-Armstrong’s first time at Dodger Stadium after calling out Dodger fans for no reason this offseason
- Chicago manager Craig Counsell called out Shohei Ohtani & the Dodgers randomly days ago
- Multiple giveaways going down

@Chicago_NFL Poles got played again in the draft. He thought guys would be there and they didn’t adjust when they weren’t.
English
I sure hope Dayo and Booker and Jarrett are much better this year. That’s what the Bears are banking on.
English
@MaxMarkhamNFL Let’s remember this week 6 when the Bear D gives up 550 combined yards to lose the game 38-37.
English
Ryan Poles on the DL said it wasn’t 100% necessary to add to that group. With Dayo and Shemar Turner returning from injury and he likes Booker’s development he thinks things will look better next season as is.
English
@CourtneyRCronin What else can he say at this point. Poles got worked again in the draft.
English
Ryan Poles expressed a positive outlook with the Bears' plan along the D-line despite not using any of their top 4 picks to aid the pass rush.
Poles: "At the defensive line position, Book’s coming along with Dayo, Sweat, Shemar. We feel good about those guys. Obviously we have one more day, so we can continue to add. But like what that group is and what they’re becoming and we feel like there is some developmental upside and like I said yesterday, with Year 2 in the system, we should be able to take the next step."

@GBraggsJr23 Ben is an offensive guru!!! You may need a GM who knows what he’s doing to even things out. Just saying.
English
Here's my issue:
One year ago, the Bears had a clear problem across their offensive line. They proceeded to trade for Joe Thuney, Jonah Jackson, sign Drew Dalman, and draft Ozzy Trapilo plus Luke Newman.
This year, the Bears have a clear problem across their defensive line. They have proceeded to add Neville Gallimore, James Lynch, and Kentavius Street. Day 3 in the draft still to go.
I assumed they would follow the same process on their defensive line this year that they did on their offensive line last year. This defense was one of the worst stopping the run and getting to the passer last year. Still so many questions.
That being said... In Ben We Trust.

@AaronLemingNFL Seriously, Poles should not be directing a draft. While others GM’s are ruthlessly wheeling and dealing, Poles is riding around with training wheels.

@SpencerHakimian From the guy who speaks like a 3rd grader whenever he’s not falling asleep.

Kinda looks like Ian Cunningham is the main football executive and has personnel control…………………..
Atlanta Falcons@AtlantaFalcons
First pick as a Falcon How cool is that?!
English
@clayharbs82 D - not good command or awareness. Poles remains a question mark for me.
English
I’m getting mad about the Bears taking a third string blocking TE in the same range they took Velus Jones and Ruben Hyppolite and Kiran when they need starting DL, but my dad is not having it tonight.
English
@Kirsten_Tanis1 With a high pick and all the other needs? Not a good pick here, sorry.
English
Bears Fans thinking TE3 is an insignificant position in a Ben Johnson offense is sending me.
This guy will be on the field 30% of the time. All it tells me is that they don’t understand his offensive philosophy
This isn’t a “depth” position
It’s a blocking specialist
English
@BradBiggs @NicholasMoreano TRADE UP!! You need help on the D Line. Asleep at the wheel is a better description.
English
Asked #Bears director of player personnel Trey Koziol what the board looked like - generally - in terms of defensive options when the team chose TE Sam Roush.
English
@DavidHaugh Poles has proven his draft prowess leaves a lot to be desired. He’s playing checkers while the best GM’s play chess. Very discouraging.
English
@SpencerHakimian Yeah, his ability to fall asleep in all situations and misread and miscalculate everything is pbenomenal.
English
But why would the Bears draft another Tight En-
SHUTUP BEN DOES WHAT HE PLEASES AND YOU STAY QUIET.

@clayharbs82 Crap after the first pick. Poles is suspect for me with his drafting.
English
Safety/Center/TE for the Bears.
Gimme your thoughts Chicago! #DaBears
