At least Gary and Van Ness aren't out.

It's weird how all our depth players are perfectly healthy but our starters keep getting banged up. It's not even a question of playtime, the depth players have been getting a ton of snaps while the starters are out.

Yes you almost assuredly have lol. You just didn't know.

They usually just slow play the person resigning, because they have more control over an employee

Yeah there was no Raid, just forensic and mobile lab that showed up which apparently is standard procedure for NFL teams when people resign lol?

It's amazing what they can do with computers these days.

At this point I’m assuming it’s sexual harassment, but the Bears wanted to cover it up, or let the guy quit without it becoming a big thing, but now it’s actually worse because they refuse to just address the issue. I fully believe the Bears would try to cover up sexual harassment by one of their coaches because that’s the lovely organization that they are.

In the football justice system, the people are represented by two separate but equally important groups: Peanut Tillman, who investigates crime, and the media, who prosecute the offenders. These are their stories.

There’s a good chance the Bears organization can’t say the DC sexually harassed someone without opening themselves up to a defamation lawsuit or something.

So it’s, “we made him resign, and we can’t say why, or he’ll sue us.” :shrug:

Also then maybe a victim who doesn't want to be publicized gets very publicized.

Without knowing specifics the only thing is that Warren/Poles should have taken those bullets for the organization vs the Footbally Head coach.
