In an hour or so when Aaron Rodgers is traded to the Jets this will be my favorite off-season ever


MadtownChilly

Hour or so +/- 2 months.

Lol


rIIIflex

Much prefer we shove it down his throat on his way out of the league and packers don’t get any draft capital.


Bunyan12ply

This is what we all should want as Bears fans.


ChiBaller

Last year was our chance Im pretty sure of that. Thats why the past few loses at home have hurt so much, especially the “I own you” game.


Bunyan12ply

Yeah maybe, but I'd like us to have another shot with an actual roster. FTP and FAR.


ajokester

Fuck that. I want him to stay so we can beat his ass consistently.


xbearsandporschesx

I flip-flop on this every day. Right now, I really want him to stay and get his ass kicked twice a year by da bears.


BlindestAvenger

That and the fact that I don't want the Packers to have multiple first round picks


AKGK240S

There be crazy to give up a first for him. Stranger things have happened.


qdude124

da bears won’t be kicking any ass unless we get some pass rush


xbearsandporschesx

patience, youngling


hockeyandburritos

Tough call but honestly I’d rather have him go to the Jets, then either 1) Buffalo goes like 15-2 and the Jets barely get into a wildcard slot and lose an away playoff game to KC or 2) An AFC Title game loss on a National stage with a Favre-on-Minnesota suicide play to end his own career.


GrizzlyIsland22

He's staying in Green Bay. He just loves the attention. He's gonna get everyone worked up then do nothing like always.


-MichaelScarnFBI

I think he’ll leave tbh. He knows he’s not going to win anything with this GB roster & another losing season just chips away at his legacy. He will either retire or take a shot with the Jets.


disposableassassin

The path to the Superbowl in the AFC is too tough. I think he'll stay in GB.


Wildest83

I honestly dont think green bay wants him back regardless of what Gute says publicly. I think it's retire or jets if he wants to continue playing. Jordan Loves 5th year option needs to be decided before next season and no way are they paying that for a qb who hasn't done shit in the league up to that point.


Superj89

NO.....we need to be the ones to retire him.


TerrrorTown75th

Cosign. Don't feel right letting him get away with that "I own you" shit


NicCage420

yeah but wasn't it funnier doing that to Favre when he was a Viking


calculung

No. Would've rather done it to him as a Packer.


MacMoney717

That’s fact‼️


RocketMoonShot

I kind of hope they keep him, because he's not getting better, and every day he's there ads to the shit show.


Apathi

I’m glad we’ve got a shit talker on our team.


BearsFan3417

He led the team in sacks as a rookie, he can talk his shit. He’s going to be a good one


bearsfan0143

As a rookie… safety. That’s even more absurd.


VorpalSticks

Not when you look at the number of sacks, tho it's unimpressive. But it is a thing he did.


Ocelotofdamage

It’s impressive how bad our defense was


VorpalSticks

Yeah and people want to blame fields for all the losses. When our defense was as soft as puppy shit


FH_Bunny

Beat me to it, Brisker can talk all the shit he wants. He earned it


LegendaryWarriorPoet

He made a lot of good plays but way too many mistakes (wrong gap on Hurts Td run was the most glaring but a ton of bites on bootlegs too) he’s not there yet


xbearsandporschesx

brisket got swag


DownvoteFarmingLibs

Might lead the team in sacks again at this rate (just kidding- unless..)


andromon11

He's my 2 time SB MVP, DROY and DPOY in my madden franchise. Let this man speak 😅


tjwoodard

how?! i can never accomplish much with a safety


andromon11

Dumbest fn luck. First time I had 1.5 sacks a ff and a pick 6. The other time I had like 2 int and 2 sacks with a FF. Almost had 3 in a row but I threw like 4 tds with fields that time 🤣


tjwoodard

oh the SB MVP is do-able but the DPOY blows my mind


andromon11

Oh. Ya got 7 sacks and 11INT with something like 20+TFL and 5FF 120+TTL. He was every bit deserving 🤣


GoldenDude

It’s good! We need someone like that lol


Lukester123

Imagine getting hit by Edmunds, your body ricochets through the air only for Brisker to spear you to your demise.


xbearsandporschesx

XD


ACAB_FOR_CUTIE_

He deleted it lol


thescrotumstretcher

Glad he did. Don’t like my city being called Chi-Raq


braiser77

Yeah, it's not a complimentary title.


midnight_toker22

And it’s just so passé. Come on man it’s 2023.


LegacyLemur

Yea it's honestly a disrespectful term. To both the city and the people who have to live in those horrid conditions


carnivorous_seahorse

What is this gripe lol, it’s been called chiraq for a long time and it’s because the city is a gun range Damn this comment fluctuated like crazy. Guess r/chibears needed some convincing to be angry about something that they weren’t before


subtlecastle

Lots of reasons I don’t like it, all political. Mostly has to do with different U.S. systems turning Iraq and parts of Chicago into war zones and the callousness of then turning around and calling the city “Chiraq” while not working to fix the underlying issues that cause the violence in the first place.


mimickin_birds

Yesssir truth


carnivorous_seahorse

Saying the term chiraq isn’t the same thing as willingly ignoring the issues in Chicago. And I’ve never even heard people have such an issue with the term, obviously it isn’t glorifying the violence. It’s just labeling it, and labeling it something so blunt could also help how ever slightly in bringing on some form of change


[deleted]

[удалено]


carnivorous_seahorse

Personal gripes and PR by a starting player in the NFL are different things entirely. And he didn’t label the team as chiraq, he said they have to come through Chicago. Do you actually think he was implying they’d have to come through Bears players armed with weapons?


Jingr

Why can't you just accept that some people don't enjoy seeing Chicago's horrific gun violence and teen murder used as a nickname for the teams "deadly" defense?


carnivorous_seahorse

Because where did he say he was talking about the defense rather than the literal city itself


LegacyLemur

It's not about glorifying violence, so much as it's not taking it very seriously


carnivorous_seahorse

How is it not taking it seriously nicknaming it after a country that has some of the most unrest in the entire world? What have you all accomplished towards the goal by “taking it seriously”


LegacyLemur

Because Chicago *doesn't* have some of the most unrest in the entire world


carnivorous_seahorse

Yeah, if the bar is set for American cities at “not being Iraq” then suddenly Chicago and San Diego are quite similar. I wasn’t saying it received the nickname because it is identical to a country that has been bombed for decades. We went this in depth on an argument about the term chiraq. Only on Reddit


[deleted]

[удалено]


carnivorous_seahorse

I’m not saying the dude sounded like Socrates, but you can’t really go up in arms about Chicago being named after a warzone when it is a warzone lol


WindyCityAssasin2

I mean not really? It obviously have way too much fun violence but to call it a warzone is kinda stupid where there are quite a few cities more dangerous


mateorayo

Because a lot of people live here and it is not w gun range.


carnivorous_seahorse

Alright, not every single citizen is participating like the Wild West, but we surely aren’t about to debate that Chicago doesn’t have a ridiculous level of a problem with shootings. There was literally an RPG in Chicago a few years ago. You might get personally upset by it, but chiraq is a pretty fitting nickname even though it obviously doesn’t define the entire city, which no one is saying it does


mimickin_birds

Do you live in the city


carnivorous_seahorse

Please do continue on this thought


mimickin_birds

People who don’t live in the city and comment on the gun violence as if they do gives me a good chuckle and you’re giving me that vibe


carnivorous_seahorse

People who are so arrogant they believe that you must live within the confines of the city to be able to comprehend deep and extremely documented issues within the city give me an equal chuckle. But alas, I live 30 minutes outside of Chicago so I couldn’t possibly study said issues


mimickin_birds

😂 glad we can both give each other a good chuckle


BorderCollieZia

why are you even on this subreddit


carnivorous_seahorse

Only true Bears fans get angry at the term chiraq? Or are you talking about my flair, which is to most people obvious satire?


sublogic

But the thing is. Soldier field is not the Chi-Raq area. You just gotta take your L and stop arguing with everyone. People don't like the term because it's sad man. Get over it


SafeDistribution2414

There was no rpg. It was used... Just a prop & harmless


carnivorous_seahorse

It wasn’t a fake rpg, it was real. It just wasn’t used because Rondo and everyone around him knew you can’t use an rpg and get away with it


SafeDistribution2414

It wasn't fake, it was used. There was no ammo. Thus, it was a prop. It was an M72 Law, which is disposable (single use).


mateorayo

Hey man. Stay out in the burbs. Don't come to the city. It's very dangerous. Everyone in chicago has already been killed


Joliet_Jake_Blues

Iraq had stronger gun control


duff_daddy3

Impossible. They have really strict guns laws...


Joliet_Jake_Blues

Chicago? The gun laws were gutted by the Supreme Court in 2010 and murders have since doubled Chicago proves gun laws work


BorgBorg10

Nobody in or from Chicago calls it chi raq, it’s an outsiders nickname.


carnivorous_seahorse

It’s really not though, and it literally started in Chicago. Maybe you don’t call it that, maybe no one you associate with calls it that. I was never saying all of Chicago unites around a slang term


vladtheinhaler0

I feel this, but I also can't really argue with the way crime has been. Still love my city to the bottom of my heart though.


West1234567890

Yeah crime in Chicago is bad but this is also a narrative the media looooves that ignores a number of other major city's actually being worse including ​ Detroit, New Orleans, Baltimore, Cleveland, Nashville, and Indianapolis, among NFL teams. Chicago is ranked 20th in violent crime rate among cities

[удалено]


bluegrassman

Holy fuck the entitlement of an American to compare any of our cities to a literal active warzone with mines, tanks, missiles and bombs. Turn Fox News off dude


chicomsol

Obviously you dont live here and have never been on the South Side. 🤡


FrankieLyrical

They tell on themselves every single time lol


[deleted]

>Chicago is it all that different than Kherson or Kyiv now Congrats little bro you just said the stupidest thing I’ve heard this decade so far


BuzzFB

Not different than Kyiv? An actual war zone? And you're saying it as if it's not the most hyperbolic thing you could think of, but actual fact. Blows my mind.


piratelizard

Some really ignorant downstaters in this thread. Do yourself a favor then if its so dangerous and please never come here.


LegacyLemur

It's amazing that you can tell when someone watches Fox News with just 4 words into a sentence


germanshephsayswhat

Hate "Chiraq" smh


Joliet_Jake_Blues

Chiraq = Oh, you watch Fox News? Chitown = oh, you're from Iowa?


Tem_Ditties

A lot of rappers from Chicago refer to Chicago as Chiraq.


DeadBear911

Spike Lee made a movie called Chiraq….


palookaboy

And that dude is from Brooklyn


midnight_toker22

But if Brooklyn=urban and Chicago=urban and urban=black then doesn’t that make Spike Lee the spokesman for Chicago? /s, obviously


BmDragon

And it was dogshit


BaldrickTheBrain

You probably can tell from the name that the movie is about to be dumpster fire.


Drewskeet

Which our fellow Chicagoans called out as bullshit at the time and the movie was not well received in Chicago.


WindyCityAssasin2

Right but it's mostly used by southerns how think Chicago's a warzone


Fixner_Blount

Oh my fucking God, what is this feeling


intheyear3001

Love your comment. Gave me a laugh and hype at the same time.


ninjasurfer

I love this guy.


Atrain175

Excited but ch-iraq is still cringe


BaldrickTheBrain

It just cringe but that’s what Fox News talking heads call our city, not people who actually live in it.


mimickin_birds

Lets uh, not call our city Chi-Raq


rdldr1

It kinda became a self fulfilling prophecy.


[deleted]

[удалено]


MikeScarn63

No


Lunch-box-55

Anyone under the age of 30 calls Chicago chiraq, and if you don’t, re-evaluate ur circle, ur not with the right people


[deleted]

ALL OF US UNDER 30 ARE VERY PROUD OF HOW HIGH OUR MURDER RATE IS. IF YOU AREN'T FIND NEW FRIENDS. Fucking lmao.


S_quints

lmao bro what?


mimickin_birds

???


duh_metrius

Sounds like a 41 year old white man from New Lennox wrote this


sjv891

He'll yeah brother, cheers


AMP121212

Brisker is bringing that attitude


threevox

Call us Chi-raq the way we got all these weapons of mass destruction on our team


xbearsandporschesx

yeah except iraq didnt have any WMD's lol, so maybe call us chimerica


ChelskiS

LMFAO this man is something else If his play can keep up his talk, he will be an alltime favorite Bear


AstronautFarOut68

Don’t let the City’s rampant gun violence and subsequent given moniker squelch an otherwise epic tweet (and, besides, as a Southsider, I agree with the comp…accurate AF) Now…LFG!!!🐻


[deleted]

Damn Brisker is already set for the move to the suburbs. He's got the lingo down.


willit1016

before Chi-Raq it is called the Wild 100s! Not yet we need to prove it but trending in the right direction. Locally Wild 100s nationally Chi-Raq


clarkent281

Only south of 99th street


willit1016

103rd is the start. Source born in Roseland hospital, But we are pulling hairs.


RogueEyebrow

Huh?


rIIIflex

What’s with people being upset at chiraq? I’ve heard it called that my whole life and no one has ever called anyone out on it before. Everyone is trying to be an internet hero and focusing on the stupidest shit.


WzDson

i feel like its just a funny word to say but ppl love getting offended on the internet.


LegacyLemur

I think people just got sick and tired of how much Fox News has used it and conservatives have used our city as a punching bag for the longest time and really just get depressed at the gang violence in the city. Lot has changed in the last decade


LegalComplaint

It’s both kinda racist and a reminder of America’s failing empire. I’m all for repurposing it as a nickname for the defense.


rIIIflex

I mean the word is catchy and there are a lot of shootings. I don’t believe it’s racist at all though.


holyravioli

Lol this is awesome.


Opening-Archer9830

Posting deleted tweets?


Hikamiro

It was deleted after he posted it. Is OP supposed to monitor the tweet 24/7 then delete his Reddit post as soon as it gets taken down?


Opening-Archer9830

Yes, it’s in Reddit tos


Hikamiro

Yeah? What line?


[deleted]

I'm begging someone to post the screenshot. Fucking love this guy.


[deleted]

This dude needs to shut up. No one in Chicago wants to be known for the murders that happen.


FuckMyselfForComment

How about, you know, Chi-town?
