It sounds like there is some legitimate discussion about the Bears trading Justin Fields to draft a QB instead at No. 1…but why? / Shut Up Sipple (sponsored by Bagels & Joe) Feb 17, 2023

Show notes

-There are rumors swirling that some league insiders believe the Bears may look to trade Fields in order to draft another QB in the first round, since they have the No. 1 pick

-Fields had a slow start this year, but really improved as a passer and a runner as the year went on and became one of the most dynamic players in the league despite a poor record…why would you move on?

-With trades as a hot topic, is it right that players are discovering they've been traded via Twitter and other forms of social media rather than finding out directly from the organization itself?

If Matt Rhule’s tenure at Nebraska looks like Bo Pelini’s, how would it be viewed this time around? Feb 17, 2023

Show notes

-Let’s envision it went the exact same way, for 7 years. So---9-10 wins for 7 straight years, including the first year. Pelini took over a 5 win program from 2007 and won 9 games in 2008, with a bowl win

-Bo made 3 conference title games in 7 seasons and won zero…but if Rhule had a 7-year stretch like that, after what we just endured for 8 seasons of Riley/Frost…how different would the feel be?

-Also, thoughts on coaches and players being mic'd up at practices and games?

Nebrasketball is back in action on Sunday….are we expecting a packed arena at PBA? Feb 17, 2023

Show notes

-Nebraska begins a 3-game homestand with a game against Maryland on Sunday, who beat the Huskers in January by double-digits

-Maryland is coming off of a 14-point win vs. No. 3 Purdue.

-Nebraska has a chance to finish the season with a record above .500 for the first time since the Tim Miles era…and it likely won’t happen if they lose on Sunday. Will they follow up the win vs. Rutgers with another win?

We survived the snowstorm to get here today…and with the Chiefs having their Super Bowl parade yesterday, it spurs a question from Jake Feb 16, 2023

Show notes

-We discussed how good KC has been in identifying talent in the draft, as all of their rookie draft picks contributed this season. The question is this: why is it so hard to find the right guys in management?

-Head coaches are the easiest to criticize when it comes to teams failing, but how much of that is actually because of the GM and anyone on that level in identifying talent both in the draft and in free agency?

-Also, RIP to Raquel Welch, age 82….Sip and Bill have fond memories

-Are championship parades necessary for every sports team? After seeing the Chiefs' parade yesterday, Sip weighs in with his opinion.
