Meanwhile, Over at the McCaskeys

I wonder what the McCaskey clan, Bears’ chairman George in particular, was thinking during last night’s Super Bowl, the Chiefs beating the 49ers in overtime, 25-22? Consider these possibilities. First, ex-Bears’ coach Matt Nagy did a great job as Kansas City’s offensive coordinator. Why, look at the plays Nagy called for Patrick Mahomes. Anybody could’ve won with that game plan. Second, people just don’t understand, and they never will—Mahomes didn’t fit the culture. Drafting him over Mitch Trubisky would’ve constituted a rejection of all that George Halas—blessed be his name—stood for. Third, how did the Raiders get the public to pick up nearly 40 percent of the $1.9 billion cost of Allegiant Field? Who cares if it looks like one of those funny little robot vacuum cleaners plunked down in the middle of the desert?
