What do Mark Grote and Gabe Ramirez say about their love for Bears preseason football?
Rohimi Harrison Grody. Let's go one time. Who let the dogs out? Middays 10 to 2. I don't know how many times I gotta tell Mike to stop doing that sht. It's
hard. On 1043, the score. Awesome.
It sounds so good. Sounds gorgeous. Sounds beautiful. Sounds better than ever. Like
a number one hit song, buddy.
Like a number one hit song. And I hope it stays on the charts for the next 20 years of the Ben Johnson era.
According to Ben Johnson, you're gonna be hearing it more than you've ever heard it ever before in your entire life.
He wants to kill everybody, and I hope he does kill them all. As we welcome you back to Rahimi Harrison Grody on 1043 the score. We are live from Gallagher Way. Cubs and Cardinals will occur in the big building right behind us, which just happens to be Wrigley Field. It's going to be a great, actually, it's going to be a great six games coming up here at Wrigley Field because it's Cubs Cardinals over the next three days, and then it is Cubs. Hub's White Sox that is gonna go down. I got Gabe's here. Bears. And it's fantastic because I didn't necessarily realize it, but Bears. Gabe Ramirez is just like me when it comes to Bears preseason football. Yes. Bears in Cleveland along the lakefront tomorrow at noon.
I'll be there. I know you'll be doing postgame. I'll be doing
post game on the score, I'll be watching it at my house. But what I told Grody the way the conversation started was I said, Grody Preseason, Shmi season, you put on a Bears helmet, you got a jersey, I wanna watch you and I wanna cheer for you. Every bit of it. It doesn't matter. He was that's when you watch a bears preseason game. And then you're the idiot that's talking in the front group chat, and you're like, dude, I guarantee you, give me a name. Britton Brown is gonna go crazy this year. Pick him up in your fantasy. Sleeper, sleeper, pick him up.
Give me some, you know what? And then he gets cut. You know, like,
wait, why do they do that? The Bears don't know what they're doing.
I'll see that and raise you a Maurice Alexander, man. It's about to go down. Favorite parts about
preseason. Sorry.
Oh, I mean, I just love the start of seeing the Chicago Bears play football. I remember going downtown with my buddy Fez. I'll name check my buddy Fez. This is like years ago. I think like circa early two thousands. It might have been like a Cade McNown situation. That might even be even before that. But we went out downtown. We're like, we're gonna go to watch the Bears preseason game. This is where we're gonna drink beers, we're gonna get burgers, we're gonna watch Bears pre-season game game game game game. We watched the first quarter. Where's the burger? Oh too good. I'm oh I just got goosebumps. Wow. Um I'll try to recover here, man. I'll try to recover here. Wow, get me back on track. So downtown. So so there we are.
We're watching the Bears game. And it's like the first quarter.
Why do the hosts consider the Bears preseason games a must‑watch experience?
You know how it is, after the first quarter things go haywire. Yeah. That that's where you see your Dion Hankins' and your Royce Freemans and your Joel Wilsons, who by the way all scored touchdowns for the Bears in the preseason last year. Yeah, absolute studs, man. Where are they now? Oh. Some of them still on the bears. Um so anyway, it's the the end of the first quarter. My buddy Fez is like, all right, dude, let's let's go. Let's go to some other bars. Yeah. Exactly what I said. He's like, dude, what are you talking about? Like we're just gonna just give me a bunch of third and force triggers. I go, I know. Uh don't get out of here. I I want to see every instant. Someone's gonna
get hurt, and I need to be talking about this guy from a from a vantage point that I've seen him before and I've seen him dominate. I just love it. And you know, guys, here's the other thing. People that love college basketball, they say because why, right? They're not well before, they weren't getting paid and they treat every game as if it's the last game of their college career, right? They play with a level of intensity that is unmatched. Same thing with preseason. You watching these guys, these third or fourth stringers, you might see somebody get beat, but the guy that beat him is somebody
