Custard’s anti-Bear obsession reminds me of a flat-earther.

Being disgusted by this franchise is the most logical reaction.

Says the life-long Illini fan whose favorite team is currently lead by a player facing rape charges.

There’s a dimes worth of difference between the Bears and the Illini.

Illini basketball is a playoff level team the last 5 seasons. The Bears are so bad they lose on purpose to get better players faster.

Lol

Tell me you don’t understand the difference between professional and college sports without telling me you don’t know the difference between college and professional sports.

And it’s funny you’re picking a very recent time frame. Historically, you couldn’t find a better side by side college/pro comparison than Illini/Bears.

There have been 39 combines with over 13,000 players and only one has refused to take the medical. Anyone care to guess who that player is?

You’re the one who made the analogy.

Right, they are as similar as a college/professional franchise can be. But they are different. “Tanking” is not a thing in college. There is no benefit to it. Tanking, is very much a thing in professional sports and can yield the desired result (2016 Cubs for example).

Non issue. He submitted them to those who matter. You’re reaching for any little bit you can. If you apply to a job with a bank, and your financials are required to get hired, are you going to submit them to all the banks, or just the one you applied to or might realistically hire you?

Again, the ONLY player in 39 years to do this. Part of me respects it, but I also think it’s a bad look for a guy trying to shed the reputation he might think he’s above the process. Pretty much zero doubt you’d be critizing him if you didn’t like him and weren’t anti-Fields.

Things like this are what can divide a lockerroom when you have a player (and a leader at that) who thinks the rules/protocols everyone else has abided by don’t apply to him.

I get the other side of the argument, but I’d prefer to see him be a little more cooperative rather than someone who has to do everything his way. If he’s coddled now, what’s to say he won’t have an even bigger and more demanding ego 2 years from now?

if he wins games who cares, his teammates won't care

True. If he wins games. And he’d better. Or it won’t go well.

I haven’t watched this whole thing yet, but I can tell it’s great already. I’m guessing any of you who go on Twitter know who he is. I don’t even follow him and he’s in my feed every day. He’s a super conservative Trumper, but I’m 80% sure it’s a bit. There are times he’s so over the top he gives it away, but he keeps you guessing.

“Beta-male babygirl Caleb Williams.” LMAO
