That’s the cadence that the newspaper’s Bears beat reporters—Patrick Finley, Jason Lieser, and Mark Potash—employed for their analysis. For instance, they asked, “The Bears’ decision to trade back in round one and draft Darnell Wright was . . .”
Finley answered, “Boring.”
Lieser: “Inevitable.”
And Potash: “The right move.”
And so on and so forth for several questions about the draft.
As much as I enjoyed reading that article, it was like hearing an oldie on the radio, say, “Sugar, Sugar” by the Archies. I can’t get that question and answer cadence out of my mind. For example . . .

As pathetic as you rushing out to buy tickets to see Lionel Richie in concert this summer?
Okay, first of all . . . Lionel’s playing with Earth, Wind, & Fire. So I’m not just seeing Lionel.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Do you like any songs by Lionel Richie?

Is calling “Brick House” a Lionel Richie song even though it’s by the Commodores more truthful than what Donald Trump says about E. Jean Carroll?
What? Huh? Where did that come from?
Truthful or not?
Way more truthful.
Do you believe E. Jean Carroll’s testimony in her trial against Trump?
Yes. But I thought we were talking football . . .
Is anything more hypocritical than MAGA law and order types voting for an alleged rapist?
No.
Do you think MAGA cares if you call them hypocrites?
No. Fascists don’t care about being hypocritical—they only care about winning.
