Would love to see it, but it would never happen with this ownership. The whole world would be exposed to how shitty/stupid/miserly/inept they truly are. They hate bad press.

I think the show is a jinx and don't want it anywhere near the beloved.

I still see Jamal Lewis ACL tear on the first episode of the Ravens.

No thanks.

What do you think would be exposed? Ted bringing in past-their-prime working girls? George scalping tickets on the secondary market? Virginia forgetting pants?

The Jaguars are exempt as well, since they have a new head coach. But could they potentially volunteer? Sure, if that's what they want with a rookie QB.

Finally get our potential franchise QB. I'd prefer to not give this team distractions in a year we want to get him up to speed asap.

I watch it every year and it is entertaining, and I would LOVE to see the Bears on it.

My take on the show in general is that it follows a few players closely, a couple of "stars", the new draft picks and a couple of guys that are underdogs to make the team (my favorite part), but it does not appear to be this intrusive process. I would say it is more like a fly on the wall, that includes a couple interviews with softball questions, but mainly allows the players to talk about certain topics without leading them too much.

Unless there is a huge controversy like the Aaron Rogers situation, the show typically shows the players in a positive manner and is more like a documentary than a daytime soap opera.

The way they cover the coaches and front office is more focused on the struggles they have approaching the cuts, injuries and FA pickups, but it really does provide that "inside" to coaching that I would love to see. There are even a few honest quotes about players that get into the show, that a coach would likely never say in a press conference or interview.

At the end of every season I feel like I understand the team that was on Hard Knocks just a little bit better.

I'm a big fan of documentaries, and this show has over the years evolved into that kind of feel....

I really hope that one day the Bears will volunteer or be voluntold.

He seems to love the challenge though. So maybe it could be a good thing?

So Dallas will be the Hard Knocks Team this year.

My son is a big fan, but I watch every year regardless of the team.

Teams that made the playoffs in the last two years don't have to do it.

Watch it be the Cowboys again. Jerruh won't pass up a chance to get on TV. Unless he's completely senile or something.
@JesusHalasChrist for the win. Record third time, only other teams to be on more than once are the Rams and Bengals. Jerry's children have been instructed to "Weekend at Bernie's" him for Hard Knocks when the day comes. Wait, could it be...

Is that still on HBO? Or can you stream it elsewhere?
