Scrap the helmet rule now because it’s insane the NFL thinks it can make football safer

May 31, 2019 at 4:30 p.m.

The NFL is concussed. The new helmet rule is idiocy. Every refereeing crew is a banana republic. In Saturday’s Bears-Broncos preseason game, Denver fullback Andy Janovich took a short pass...

The education of Matt Nagy and Mitch Trubisky continues (and needs to hurry)

May 31, 2019 at 4:28 p.m.

MLB turns cowardly and stupid in punishment of Jose Urena for intentionally drilling Ronald Acuna

May 31, 2019 at 4:17 p.m.

What I’d like to see from the Bears this week is pretty simple

May 31, 2019 at 4:31 p.m.

I’m a simple man with simple tastes and simple requests. Like, bacon. Just bacon. Mmm, bacon. And red wine. Only red. And the Bears’ looking like they have a clue....

It looks like the Bears chose money over Roquan Smith’s immediate development

May 31, 2019 at 4:29 p.m.

Roquan Smith’s holdout seemed like a fight over nonsense, or at least it feels like a nonsensical hill for the once-proud franchise formerly known as the Bears to die on....

Pick: 22
Position: Offensive line
School: Texas

Note to Roquan Smith: You don’t have to hold out to be a Bears first-round bust, but it helps

May 31, 2019 at 4:28 p.m.

Cedric Benson. David Terrell. Cade McNown. Curtis Enis. Oh, and Rashaan Salaam. Oops, babe. That’s some longstanding embarrassment for the Bears — first-round draft picks from the last 23 years...

David Bote delivers the greatest win of the year (until the Cubs’ next greatest win, which should be this week)

May 31, 2019 at 4:17 p.m.

It took less than 10 minutes after David Bote went national against the Nationals. One delirious emailer had Kris Bryant as Wally Pipp. (Kids, ask your parents. It’s a good...

We waited 8 months for the Bears offense to show us that?

May 31, 2019 at 4:30 p.m.

Gotta feed the snarking meter: The Bears received the opening kickoff in their practice game against the Bengals and eventually faced third-and-23. The next series, the titular starters faced third-and-8,...

A White Sox rebuild question: Will Yoan Moncada ever learn how to learn at this level?

May 31, 2019 at 4:38 p.m.

Amid a wave of criticism for continuing to play the deeply disappointing Yoan Moncada, White Sox manager Rick Renteria showed confidence in his young second baseman by batting him leadoff...

We need to see Jordan Howard catch passes to see if the Bears offense works

May 31, 2019 at 4:28 p.m.

You know what’s interesting about the Bears’ second practice game, which is actually their first because they’re actually going to play the starters in Cincinnati on Thursday? Yeah, the most...
