WTH is going on in Chicago? - Page 2

I’d be worried about my health too. Predators don’t last long behind bars.

I clicked on this and thought it was a WTH is going on about the crime in Chicago. Like the armed carjacking with multiple cars and guys with guns swooping in on people.

But this thread is really still about crime as it is criminal the Bears are called an NFL team now.

I’m guessing Grid and other Bear fans are not rushing to this thread to comment.

This could be really, really bad.

I’m not rushing to any judgement since there is already major discrepancies in the story.

jplarson · 09-20-2023, 05:26 PM

I'm here, what are the facts so far?

Same. But the way it is unfolding, I'm preparing for it to get ugly.

Let me put it this way - if I resigned abruptly and immediately there were rumors that painted me as something incredibly dark, I would make an announcement immediately. Better they know he is physically sick, if that's what this, or a family member, than think... what people are thinking.

Getting an attorney also an ominous sign.

Well:

"Alan Williams’ personal attorney Andrew Stroth on
@670TheScore: “There is absolutely no criminal activity. There’s no criminal allegations. There’s been no raid on Halas Hall. None of that is true”"

Fact: Contradicting reports have been made to the public.

Fact: The Blowout public is currently discussing those contradicting reports.

No further facts have yet been established.

discostu · 09-20-2023, 05:41 PM

Jon Zaghloul was a nobody before this story broke, he may certainly be a "somebody" after it all settles. Sadly, not the "somebody" he was hoping to be.

Siberian13 · 09-20-2023, 05:45 PM

Fact: Charles “Peanut” Tillman is an FBI agent

There was an FBI sting operation in Chicago in 1985.

Where's Grid at?

49erRCCollector · 09-20-2023, 08:11 PM

If nothing else, this is a clumsy handling of all things Bears by the franchise QB and the front office.

I should be the Bears GM.

Why not? Mike Mayock was an NFL GM at one point.

Grid - could he be involved in these developments??

PokeyAndG · 09-21-2023, 04:45 AM

Bears gonna bears. Is there a worst run football franchise than the Bears and Jets? seems like they are in constant rebuild mode.

He always replied within minutes, 24/7, to everyone... now he's just a lurker.

jplarson · 09-21-2023, 08:19 AM

Maybe Grid is waiting to hear from actual, verified sources that are credible.

Scottish Punk · 09-21-2023, 08:20 AM

Wouldn't the overall lesson to be learned - stay off Twitter (or X, or whatever it is called now)!!

Maybe Grid is also an FBI agent and is busy with Peanut preparing for the raid on Halas Hall.

hairysasquatch · 09-21-2023, 08:34 AM

At this point, nothing would surprise me about Grid's possible connection to this story.
