To say we’re heartbroken is an understatement. We’ll do our best to honor & remember you. We’ll talk about the fun times. We’ll be there for Parker. It was a pleasure to know you, JD!! It was a pleasure to work with you!! I’m glad we were friends!! RIP, my brother. 🙏 ❤️.

Flus’ road record in the NFL: 3-17!! The wins are against Bailey Zappe, Sam Howell, and Josh Dobbs 😂😂😂. You can’t make this shit up…….#Bears.

I know JD was mostly a wine guy but someone on Twitter suggested I not let this Whiskey Wednesday go by without honoring our great friend. So cheers to you, JD, and RIP. Thanks for 20 great years of friendship & memories. A special pour for a special man!!

Look, the #Bears obvious got outplayed and deserved to lose so maybe it’s just the universe getting its justice, but how is this not holding…….

Dallas hung 19 points on 1 of the best defenses in the NFL w/ its 4th QB of the season. The Bears managed only 17 against 1 of the worst defenses w/their hand-picked QB. All teams, to varying degrees, deal w/injuries. Some just deal w/them better. Nagy's offense is broken!.

Angel Hernandez is an embarrassment to the sport of baseball and the profession of umpiring.

So Ryan Pace has been enamored with Marcus Mariota, signed Mike Glennon, traded up for Mitch Trubisky while leaving two future HOFs on the board, and traded for Nick Foles (although that was likely as much Matt Nagy as Pace). Yeah, let’s let him pick the next QB.

To all the people donating to Parker’s GoFundMe, buying their JD @obvious_shirts, posting pictures drinking Prisoner wine, I just want to say; thank you!!! Everyone @ESPN1000 thanks you. It’s incredibly touching to see the outpouring of support. ❤️❤️.

So @deshaunwatson just started following a pair of Chicago weathermen, @PaulKonrad & @MikeJanssenWX . One of two things is happening here:. 1) He's demanding a trade to the #Bears.2) He's planning a January vacation to Chicago, which seems somewhat odd.

The best version of Khalil Mack was marvelous. Unfortunately we didn’t see enough of that version post 2018. I know people are mad about 2 & 6 Rd picks, but you have to be realistic considering age/salary. Poles needs capital to start this rebuild. Hopefully they hit.

Am I dreaming?.
Sources to ESPN: Raiders and Bears have an agreement in place to trade Khalil Mack to Chicago. Still working through it, but Raiders now planning to send Mack to Chicago.

Jerry laughing off the possibility of the #WhiteSox entertaining Shohei is all you need to know. Bragging about spending $$ on A.B. & Grandal….now that’s funny, Jerry. Sell the team or move it, but please, put us out of our misery.

The Eagles have played in two of the last six Super Bowls, been to the playoffs in five of the last six seasons, and their fans are booing. And Chicago players think they have it tough 😂😂😂.

So here’s what I’ll say about my friend @WaddleandSilvy: he may have small hands but he’s a tough SOB! So he’s gonna go all House of Pain on this cancer’s ass (hope everyone gets that reference) and then we’re taking a trip to Vegas!! @Jurko64 @DZederman @TWaddle87

One has to wonder what was happening all week at Halas. Nagy announced Fields as the starter on Wed (they likely knew Mon), & yet the game plan was so seemingly inexplicable isn’t it fair to ask what the thought process was? Their apology game is solid, wish their real game was.

There’s not a malicious bone in @TWaddle87’s body! Maybe some broken bones, but no malicious bones. I think Hicks misinterpreted that. @WaddleandSilvy #Bears.

Great pic, Merk. He looks so good, hard to believe he’s gone. I’ll never understand this.
This picture was taken in late September at the Deerfield/Vernon Hills Football Game. This is how I chose to remember my good friend Jeff Dickerson. I will miss you a great deal. Thank you for letting me be a part of your life. Love you JD.

Stoney ripping TLR’s decision to have Grandal in the lineup, Grandal promptly grounds into an inning ending double play.

As bad as any I can remember. To have that lead, against that team at home and lose is inexcusable!! I can’t get over how clunky the procedure was on the 4th down play. It’s a fireable offense when you’re 3-17. Not the decision to go, but the entire process was flawed. #Bears.

Good thing Lazor was calling plays, otherwise the offense would have scored just 3 instead of the 6 they actually produced. ESPN has to be wondering, "how the fuck did we pick the #Bears to be on twice this year?".

Chase Daniel will make north of $40,000,000 in his career with potentially starting fewer than 10 games. God Bless America!.
Former Bears' QB Chase Daniel, who beat the Detroit on Thanksgiving Day last season, reached agreement with the Lions today on a three-year, $13.05 million deal that includes a voidable clause, per source.
