Motown Bombers

Cousins gets 4/180 and people were expecting Goff to sign for that.

I simply don't get the strategy in Minnesota. They lay out good money for a pass rusher and then let Cousins walk. Even with Cousins, they were probably the worst team in the division. They are like the Saints. Content to be a 7-9 win team every year.

Not surprised Jackson is gone. The contract is a little much for my tastes.

I’m surprised he’s still in the league.

Pollard gets a 3/24 contract. Price of running backs has gone up. Good thing the Lions got in ahead of the boom when everyone mocked them.

My assumption has been it would take a 1st for Snead, but if they are willing to take a late 2nd, I would do that. Then again, if the Lions are looking to make a splash, just sign Fuller and keep the pick.

Likely means Hunter isn’t coming back.

I bet Virginia McCaskey thought the Bears signed Taylor Swift.

I think it's funny Bears fans gave the Lions **** for signing Montgomery to a big contract and hear they give an even larger contract to the Lions discarded RB.

The Lions maybe able to shave a year off since Goff is older than Hurts/Burrow/Herbert who signed big extensions.

I didn't think Goff was going to get less than $50 million under the old cap. I think his contract will push $250 and possibly ahead of Hurts.

I’m sure he’s quite pleased.

I don't like trading a 1st for a player you will immediately have to give a big contract to. You're paying a 1st round pick just to negotiate.

Hyde Park reminded me of Grosse Pointe. People with means who shielded themselves off from the undesirables. I understand Grosse Pointe is a separate municipality but those were the vibes I got.

I think the Southside starts where the trendy bars and restaurants become cash for gold pawn shops and payday loan centers.

I also think the Chiefs game was when Jefferson left with an injury.

I'd rather avoid trading high draft picks for veterans. Just stick to the plan, build through the draft and supplement through free agency.

I'm convinced in addition to cognitive decline, that Trump is not surrounded by the same people as in 2016 and it's showing. He had some competent campaign people in 2016. They have been purged for sycophants and it shows. It was always about himself, but he could stay on message and offer simple solutions to the rubes like a wall. Now he just rants about how he's being treated so unfairly. He's also attacking people he needs like Haley supporters. In 2016 he at least attempted to even persuade Sanders supporters. It's almost like he radicalized himself.

If I were Cousins, I would sign with Atlanta. Lot of talent on offense and weak division where he doesn't have to face a juggernaut Lions team twice.

I read the White Sox are eying the 78 site for their stadium and it looks like a pretty cool site. The sightlines from the stadium would be pretty epic. Knowing the White Sox though, they'll face the stadium in the other direction. I'm just wondering, if the White Sox move, would the old Comiskey site be viable for the Bears?

Reports are it’s $9.5 million guaranteed. My guess would be it’s more likely a two year deal.
