Dan Hampton said that Khalil Mack is the best Bears player in the last 30 years, 'no offense to Urlacher'.

On Mully/Haugh this morning, David Haugh takes issue with Hampton, correctly saying that Urlacher proved himself over a number of seasons while Mack has only played a handful of games. But then...

Haugh says that he thinks Mack is a great player, 3 Bears players of the last 30 years immediately come to mind as being better than Mack...Brian Urlacher, Julius Peppers and DEVIN HESTER!!

GET THIS MAN OFF THE AIRWAVES!

Isn't AM radio like 6 listeners from off the airwaves?

I'm not sure how you compare a return specialist to a pass rusher

I suppose Hester is the best return specialist of all time and Mack is a future Hall of Fame pass rusher...


Mack may get into the Hall of Fame before Hester....

Remember when Sporting News Radio was actually an FM station?

Do you ever say anything that 1) is relevant and 2) makes sense?

Mack is so much more dominant than Peppers it's incomparable. Peppers was a pro bowl player for the Bears, Mack has been playing at an all-generation level.

I view it as "which player would you rather have on your team"? No one in their right mind would take Hester over Mack. No GM would trade Mack for Devin Hester.

All the sports stations I listen to are either FM or Sirius. In fact, nothing more than a few crackly religious AM stations around here. Sorry to have caused you duress. Maybe I should make the list of fuckery posters you can't just not ignore.

NVM, I see you edited your post to add me.

So, your point is that you have FM sports stations in Florida! Congratulations! Sorry to cause you 'duress' as well by trying to talk football.

I would almost struggle with the question... would you take Urlacher and his career or get Mack for his full career assuming he plays another 6+ at a high level for the Bears.

Because we don't have 60" TVs in our cars yet.

Who watches TV anymore? I assume anyone with cable just hates money.

There are millions of good NFL podcasts people. You don't need to listen to north shore WSCR manlets who never played organised sports themselves screaming at dumb pollacks from Cragin.

The best was they had on Paul Allen, the Vikings Play by Play guy, yesterday and he first comes on the air talking about Mully and where he has gone. Haugh seemed less than enthused.

We should start a GoFundMe for OP so he can sieze control of the tuner, volume or power function of his car stereo. Any one of the three will actually do.

We're already doing a gift basket for Jon Gruden...I think that would be stretching the CCS resources to a dangerously thin level.

To answer your question, I never really got into the podcasts because they are ubiquitous, and the few I've listened to haven't really been 'entertaining' at any level. I admittedly don't know what the "best ones" are (perhaps you can list), but the podcasts I've heard are either completely inane or reminding me of when Matt Bowen would give his over-jargony Bears takes.

David Haugh's articles are atrocious, I couldn't imagine having to listen to him.
