Bulls Gold | Changing the Culture with the 4th Pick
Bulls Gold returns to bask in the excitement of draft season with Big Dave from CHGO Bulls. We do a temperature check on Caleb Wilson, the likely #4 pick, and how he could change the culture and mentality of the Bulls. Then we open up the floor for who's catching our attention with the the 15th pick, and whether the Bulls should consider moving up to grab the right player. The Bulls are still interviewing head coach candidates, and we compare our wish list for coach, and whether there's a candidate who could come out of nowhere to get the job. We also react to Bryson Graham's first month on the job, the disappointment in Patrick Williams, and more.

Bears Stadium | Gabriel Talks Football
The Chicago Bears' new stadium plans in Illinois got sacked again by Illinois legislators. The Bears argue their vision extends far beyond football. With a proposed domed stadium, hotels, restaurants, retail, offices, and year-round events, supporters see a transformational economic development opportunity.   Critics see a risky public investment and question whether projected benefits will ever materialize. Greg Gabriel & Aldo Gandia examine the numbers, the politics, the infrastructure debate, and how other NFL stadium projects around the country have been financed.

Does Zavion Thomas Have Some Hester In Him? | Gabriel Talks Football
This week on GTF, we’re kicking things off with a fascinating Bears comparison: Did Ryan Poles just draft the closest thing we’ve seen to Devin Hester since... Devin Hester? Zavion Thomas and the Hall of Famer share some eye-opening physical similarities, from size to speed, and we dig into whether the rookie has any real shot at making that kind of impact in Chicago. Also on this episode: 🏈 Special Teams Scouting Session Which under-the-radar players could carve out roster spots by becoming core special teams contributors? 👀 OTA Watchlist What should Bears fans be watching for as OTAs ramp up later this week? 📊 The Caleb Completion Percentage Myth Is the “Caleb isn’t accurate” narrative complete nonsense?
