" We liberal broke -- to renewable following special. The real supporters know. They have to pay for my nobody. Mike Mulligan have you read the sports columns in the newspaper -- handling it before just that newspapers so it probably don't think a lot. Supporters know he might we -- pan out right is now because here comes the inside scoop yeah."

" The reporter's notebook is -- eleven yards a big money yet but -- second hobby and for -- having their back next Monday at this very time right here in Chicago Sports Radio. SIX SEVENTY The Score three coaches out so far we haven't even hit 10 o'clock yet and three coaches already. Are out of the National Football League no surprise Rod Marinelli fired in Detroit. The Browns say -- at a Romeo Cornell. And the Jets. Let go of Eric Mangini. "

" Yeah and I can't really say that -- either I mean it was pretty obvious as the season went blame Brett Favre for whatever you want we don't know the shoulder is healthy. But that offense never functioned correctly and Mangini was one last year get rid of Brian Schottenheimer there's going to be problems he stubbornly refused to and in the end that was a big part is -- well it doesn't answer where the defense -- the last five weeks of the season Eric Mangini Bill Belichick -- was talked about he wasn't ready. Bright young assistant coach who wasn't ready to be head coach in the."

" you go with what you know and the reason I bring that up these Lovie Smith it's very close with Rod Marinelli the former head coach of the Detroit Lions a man who booked for taking over. The job in Detroit was one of the most respected assistants the National Football League as the defensive line coach. In Tampa Bay. I believe someone like that could help what's going on here with the Bears did you know we've been."

" Regulating on this since mid season when it became obvious he was going to be available there's another benefit. The Bears love the idea of getting him on the cheap because he's got a year left that's catcher Detroit they would only pay the difference this happens all the time around the league the question is. How do you set it up because he probably isn't going to come here to be just the defensive line coach and I don't believe for a minute. That Lovie is going to fire one best front as offensive coordinator bring in another oneself. The way I would probably have to happen would be to make him defensive line coach and assistant head coach. -- matters in terms of what he's going to do. But but that's the only scenario under which I see it happening I don't see the Bears firing Bob -- nor do I think it would be fair. Because I just don't ever believe that Bob was allowed to make this his --"

" I don't know what's going to happen in terms of movement all I'd always. Players and they you obviously have a good relationship with a cat trusts the guys understand your system in your two cents and a guy who can clearly help out with a certain level of expertise. Why not bring an adult here August and it'll ever be a real good after because -- his biggest problem of these surround himself with coaches who who I don't closest to. But that -- they're they're they're yes but basically I mean we've heard that time and time again. Yeah and we know that's why Ron Rivera's not here so I'm not sure bringing in another one of your best for -- a power from Bob have it it may not be a good thing for what it's. All I know ways the last two years. Things have not got the win I think -- Smith expected them to go out there are two things you can do here you can either continue to be stubborn or you can say. And this is not something you say publicly. Verbally but I think your actions speak here and I think you have to take a long look at the way you -- things in -- consider admitting some mistakes privately and and changing things but I think. Bringing in a guy who has a head coaching experience and grit to get the record. -- the experience of being a head coach leaves the you've been a leader highest level -- the National Football League and I think the fact that this guy who had a lot of success in Tampa Bay as the he can only add value to your team."

" I agree with that Obama tell us something. Actually Mike my wife would tell you that I'm a little stubborn at times may -- tell him an expert. I -- And love is an expert to he is stubborn and so that's I think the biggest fear of the biggest concern right now is is he going to continue down a path that has not been good on the last couple years the best."

" Once do the best ones are people to adjust and tweak you know he sees you see the best coaches in the NFL you don't stay. Head coach in the NFL for a long period of time that includes. He is NFL mentor Tony Dungy that includes. A guy like Fisher in Tennessee or Belichick in New England. You stick around in the NFL for a long period of time like evil to which just you know and not being. It's a 100% and you would think that is true but I will argues that that that we go in the next season. Two of the longest tenured head coaches in the league are going to be Marvin Lewis and Jack Del Rio I think are two of the worst head coaches in the league. And and how Marvin Lewis stays on touches it is a complete next may but -- talking about him a black Monday -- a self. Somehow sometime some way depending on the situation you do get away with a."

And a lot of that blame when I'm Brett Favre shoulders and we know it exists door. Reports linking -- Favre wasn't getting along with Eric Mangini Mangini ends up getting fired paid the ultimate price. For the failures of the New York Jets and and again when you're in New York.
