“That also has to be ciphered through emotions and frustrations from my voice. When I say things now, it’s not like being a player. It’s not like being in the front office. I am the manager and so if I walk up to (a player), I’m like, ‘What were you doing on that play?’ He’s like, ‘The manager hates me.’ No, no, I don’t hate you, we’re just trying to win.

I have raised that question in recent weeks because if the Bears are in a full rebuild during the offseason, I’m not sure they will want to pay two pass rushers over age 30. Quinn does not have any guaranteed money remaining on his contract, but his base salary for 2022 is $12.8 million, and he has a $100,000 workout bonus, which would mean the Bears would need to move a super-hefty contract. In other words, they might not get a premium draft pick in return. Keep an eye on Khalil Mack and Quinn and wait to see if something happens to the front office and what moves the Bears make. There will be some clues in February and early March. But boy, Quinn has had a fantastic season and is on an absolute roll with 16 sacks, closing in on Richard Dent’s 1984 franchise record of 17½ sacks.

The NBA told the teams the priority is filling the ABC windows for Saturday’s games, which means the slots at 1:30 p.m., 4 p.m. and 7 p.m. Central.

Comstock believes that the 800-pound bison, sometimes called Billy by fans, has been drawn to her sister, who remained at Milk & Honey after Billy escaped Sept. 18. The most recent sighting, a few days ago, was about an eighth of a mile from the farm on North Williams Park Road.
“These are opportunities and experiences of a lifetime that you don’t get very many of as an athlete, and you might only get one,” said Pittsburgh captain Sidney Crosby, who won Olympic gold with Canada in 2010 and 2014. “It just might happen to fall in your window and if it doesn’t happen to work out, it’s unfortunate.”
State’s Attorney Eric Rinehart on Tuesday called it “a very difficult decision,” but one that was guided by legal practicalities and discussions with veteran prosecutors. The decision was also made in concert with the mother of Lasondra Shaw, who was shot to death on June 29, 2007 by two men who burst into her North Chicago apartment firing guns.
