Takes the fake. On the boot. Here comes Williams. Here comes Williams tripped up though. Van Ginkle just barely got a piece of him. And he's in pain. Yeah, I don't I don't know if Van Ginkle touched him. It looked to me like he might have pulled up late. Oh, that's even worse then. Yeah, it's what it looked like. I was waiting to see him get up, but Oh no. This stadium.
Mark Grote 0:35
Is silent. Mmm. God, I hate hearing that yell. As a we welcome it back into Rahemian Grody on 1043, the score. That's the play on which Caleb Williams was injured. Hamstring injury, essentially week to week. They have not ruled him out of playing this week, but he's not going to practice this week. So it all feels very ambiguous. And Layla, I assume you have been paying attention to the discourse that has come out from Bears fans, really, not just Bears fans, NFL fans, Caleb Williams lover. and Caleb Williams haters out there with everything from the fact that you knew that when Caleb Williams was crying that the trolls would come out.
Vinny Rotino 1:21
Yeah, and this is unfortunately a tale as old as time in the NFL, especially for certain quarterbacks, is criticizing your reaction to something. And almost in a way of an element of control. You know, oh react to it. We want you to be mad about losing or mad about injury injures injuries, but not too mad. And you know, you you can be upset, but not too upset, and then no, that's not okay. Like there's there's this uh this tiny lane that I think they want a lot of people to fit in when it comes to how they want somebody to act. The mob, whatever you want to call it, not the Twitch mob, very important to denote. But the control of quarterbacks and how they're supposed to react to things. The discussion about how maybe if somebody doesn't want something enough or they're not mad enough that they lost the game, they don't want it enough.
Vinny Rotino 2:12
You know, that becomes the the focus rather than Maybe they just react to things differently than you do. And some people get a lot of leeway on that and others seem to not. Caleb Williams is definitely in the crowd that doesn't. See his time at USC. And and how people still talk about him crying on the bench because he was upset after a loss. And I can't say that I'm surprised it's reared its ugly head here.
Mark Grote 2:39
Part. Like, I'm good with a lot of it because a lot of it is hilarious, and a lot of the memes are hilarious, and some of the jokes are genuine by people who are actually funny and are creative and have no malice towards it because this is a chance for humor for a lot of people. But yeah, it is those people, the trolls who've been waiting for their opportunity to pounce on Caleb Williams that I don't really have the time for. For. The other set of people that I don't have the time for, and this is the most ignorant people have been about a Bears quarterback since Jay Cutler in the NFC title game against the Green Bay Packers when he left with an injury. And immediately players across the league, and obviously fans across the league, were questioning Jay Cutler's toughness, which never should be.
Mark Grote 3:29
Should have been questioned. There are many things that you can question Jay Cutler on. His his personality, his demeanor, his way around people, his teammateship, all that stuff is up for question. Throwing in the triple coverage. That was a question. Jay Cutler's toughness was at a 10, and if you knew, you knew. Same thing with Caleb Williams. Caleb Williams doesn't miss games. He hasn't. Like missing games has not been a part Of his story ever. His toughness has been at a ten. We saw that man get sacked seventy times or whatever it was in his rookie year. We saw that. We saw that man fall down and get up. Fall down seven times, get up. A Chinese proverb. I love it. Uh we know this about Caleb Williams.
Vinny Rotino 4:12
Chinese proverb.
Mark Grote 4:13
It is. It is. It's on my phone. We all fall down seven times and we try to get up eight.
