This is the most Bears Bears thing ever. All of it.

Even if it's not true.

Don't sell them short. Still have 7 games to go! So glad we have that 17th game this year.

I'm a Packers fan and the average Packers fan is awful. This little holier than thou posturing is annoying when it happens in McCormick but at least the boys are broing out then.

At one point in my fandom, I had to root for teams owned by Bud Selig and Herb Kohl, and another run by Judge Robert Parins.  All at the same time!!!

I fully understand how hard it is to root for teams with miserable ownership.

It's beyond me how Daniel Jones is a starting NFL QB. He's so unbelievably bad.

Actually said "not accurate."
Can something be true and not accurate at the same time?

It's entirely possible that Nagy has been fired and just doesn't know it yet. But I doubt he went in front of the media and tried to parse words like that.

The Bears are like Succession, only If Virginia was the exact opposite of Logan Roy.

Stern had a great take on Rodgers:

"Forget about the fact that he didn't take the vaccine, he lied to everybody," Stern continued. "He put people in danger. People have families. He's a fuckhead and the NFL should be ashamed of themselves."

"Now I hear he has a toe injury. Let me ask you something: When he had the toe injury, did he go to the doctor or did he go to Joe Rogan?" asked Stern.

Yes. Politicians do this all of the time. As long as one sentence in a 10 page report is wrong, they can claim the report is "inaccurate'.

And I agree on Nagy. He has never known as being dishonest with the media.

Lol.

The Bears are bad because they have poor ownership. That's hardily unique in professional sports. I guess the fans could organize some sort of boycott or something, but I am unaware of a fan campaign that actually caused a team's ownership to change. Sounds good when ranting on the internet or for the talk radio crowd though. So, yes, blame the fans.

I'm pretty sure every Bears fan that posts on Scoop thinks the organization is terrible. So, I really don't understand the gloating, other than it just being a bunch of homer nonsense. Yes, the Packers are better than the Bears. No crap. Honestly, it has a "best fans in football" vibe. So, I guess congrats are in order.

Yes, I am gloating. Something about the Bears' arrogance brings it out. It's homers like Hub Arkush saying that the Bears have more talent than the Packers, then turning around and saying he doesn't think he is ready to say Nagy needs to be fired. That kind of arrogance.

Bears suck. Outside of those few meathead fans the Bears fanbase is incredibly self-deprecating.

I think the Bears fans on Scoop, and most Bears fans I know, are actually not all that arrogant.

Probably because the Bears have sucked for most of the last three decades.  The fair weather fans of all fan bases are 100% the worst.

Yeah. I find Vikings fans way worse to deal with than Bears fans.

I know this is both anecdotal and a sweeping generalization but three years ago I toured Lambeau Field and the Lodge Kohler Hotel (across from Lambeau Field) with an event planner as a scouting trip for a corporate weekend event.  The woman who gave me the tour was the visiting team fan base go to person (I forget her title) for the Packers for 20+ years before taking on this new gig as an event planner.  I asked her who the worst fan base was, in her experience.  She went out of her way to praise  Bears fans (knowledgeable, friendly, respectful), mentioned that Jets fans were demanding and difficult.  But then she smiled, and said "the very worst are Vikings fans.  You'd think they'd come in all Minnesota nice, but they are without question the worst fan base I had to deal with."

Sorry 'topper.

I only make fun cuz you guys are so easy & predictable. I don't know all of the unwritten rules, so maybe it's wrong to make fun of a rival - even one that you own.

If you didn't notice, I made fun of ARod just before making fun of the Bears. No GB fun jumped on me about it. I think we are just more secure in our fandom.

I think I mentioned it here before, but in working for the Bears, and over the years knowing people there, the least amount of "incidents" in the stands was consistently Green Bay. My experience in the stands as a season ticket holder was the same, incredibly nice folks.

The worst? Minnesota and Dallas. By far.

Must suck when that same "stupid" "dumb" and bad organization has been to exactly the same number of Super Bowls as the Packers in the last 25 years, and thats without always having a HOF QB at the helm.

Nobody here is arguing the Bears have a good front office track record but spare me the smug sneers and pompous gloating.  Leave that to the dbags in NE who have actually won stuff.

Wait what? The Packers have more Super Bowls in the past 25 years than the Bears have in franchise history.

But yes. Vikings fans are by far the worst in the NFC North.

Herman Cain

I would definitely agree the Viking Fan Base is the worst . Years of winning the old NFC Central ingrained an unjust sense of superiority that Carrie's forward to this day.

The Jets are also bad, back in the day we used to say Jets Fans looked ,and acted , like Mark Gastineau.

The Eagles fans are complete jerks as well. Their at stadium behavior is well documented , booing Santa Claus was the most famous example. and they behave the same way out of the stadium .

Baltimore is also not a very savory fan base .  That dates back to the Colts .

My math was a bit off, I was thinking Super Bowl 32 was January 1997, which would be 25 years ago.  So the 25 years after that appearance.

There's some real Schrödingers cat stuff happening with Nagy this week

Matthew Nagy is done.  And he'll never be an NFL head coach again.  He may never be a coordinator either. Hopefully Pace is gone as well.
