Sorry John, thank you, don't need it

Felger in Mass 985, the sports hub.

Did you know that the Bears were in the final, final list of teams for Tom Brady?

Did you know that?

Are you just messing with me?

No, I swear that the final list that Brady was looking at, the Chargers, the Bears, and the Buccaneers.

I just told this yesterday.

And I went, wait a minute.

The Bears said, yes, Brady was considering the Bears.

The Chargers, the Chargers were the long shot because it was West Coast.

He didn't want to be on the West Coast, unless it was San Francisco.

Final hour, Felger Man, so Dan Patrick off the top rope.

A little late, but we'll take it.

So this makes me feel better. I thought one of the biggest frustrations I had from the Brady thing is that not more teams were in on him. Because I felt he made sense on a lot more teams that went after him. And I didn't, you know, not that I care about for his sake, I don't need, he doesn't need, you know, someone feeling sorry for him.

But in terms of my faith in the league, it's like, I thought San Francisco should have taken a harder look at him. And I thought, you know, it should have been more than just the buccaneers and chargers. any team that needed a quarterback should have been looking at him because I still think he's capable of high-level play for a couple of years and he wants it

and he's Tom freaking Brady. So good, the Bears were in on him. They should have been in on him. The bills should have been in on him. I'll give you a million teams that should have been in on him. Oh, Vegas. There were some. Vegas should have been in on them. I mean, it's a smoke there. Again, but there's like, I don't know, there's a half dozen teams. Giants. Colts should have been in on them as opposed to Philip Rivers. Like, what? You know, you're taking Philip Rivers over Tom Brady? Why? So, like, like, I always thought that Tom Brady's free agency should have been like Peyton Mannings in 2015. Sure. Where Peyton Manning's, the phone was ringing off the hook and he had 12 teams to choose from and went on a little tour and actually had to turn teams down. And like, I thought Brady should have been that guy. Instead, there was only the freaking bucks and maybe the chargers. Okay, well, now the bears are in. Well, the bears make sense, too. I mean, they ended up trading for Nick Foles. I was going to say, but the Raiders do too. There's a bunch of teams that make sense. Yeah, totally. So anyway, should he have chosen the bears over the bucks? Yes, yes, a thousand times, yes, yes. Well, the bucks are a joke. The buccaneers are a freaking joke. So the only thing I'll give Tampa over Chicago is the offensive weapons. Yeah, I mean, if you're talking about legacy, what the team is, the market, sure. The Bears have a good offense. They just have a dingleberry for a quarterback. Yeah, but Tampa's got more. Tampa's got more. The Tampa Receiving Corps, you know, again, they're Evans and Godwin. That's like, now the Bears have, I think, Robinson, Anthony Miller, Ted Ginn Jr., I think, is the third guy. They did sign Jimmy Graham, but he's washed up. The third downback, they have Tariq Cohen's very good, too.
