00:00Ben Johnson was introduced today as the new head coach of the Chicago Bears.
00:06I don't know if you knew this or not, but there's a lot of Detroit fans who are very
00:09upset that Ben went to Chicago, a hated division rival in the NFC North.
00:16Here is Ben saying he wanted to stay in the NFC North for a variety of reasons.
00:23I know this is the toughest division of football right now.
00:26There's three teams that made the playoffs this year.
00:29I've got tremendous amount of respect for the coaches and the players in this league,
00:37having competed against them for the last six years.
00:40Dane Campbell, Kevin O'Connell, you're talking about two guys that are up for Coach of the
00:46Year awards as the season ends here.
00:49And to be quite frank with you, I kind of enjoyed beating Matt LaFord twice a year.
00:59Oh, be careful there, Ben, with the big smile on your face.
01:02Well, look, I said he's going to go there because of the rivalries and the ability to
01:09beat Campbell, the ability to beat O'Connell and the ability to beat LaFord.
01:15Those are all really good coaches, really good division.
01:19He's got a young quarterback stud, allegedly, but I think Daniels is way better than.
01:24But I think Campbell, you know, what he just did was close again.
01:29He lost the NFC title again, then blew it again this year.
01:32I think this team in Chicago's got the quarterback.
01:35They got the D that's, you know, I think needs a lot of work, but they got some star players.
01:40They got star corners that are shut down corners, some of the best in the league.
01:46And it was a, you know, are you kidding me?
01:49The Vegas Raiders, you were going to take that job over this.
01:53The Bears is much more enticing.
01:55And if you win in Chicago, believe me, you all right, let's just get real here for a
02:01second.
02:02There's there's New York, then there's L.A., then there's Chicago.
02:08And then people go to Vegas to gamble and to party and to get drunk and do drugs and
02:12have sex.
02:13They don't matter.
02:14They just don't matter.
02:15At the end of the day, it's a place to go vacation and party.
02:21But when you talk about big time, if you win in Chicago and people are still dressing
02:26like Mike Ditka from 1985, they still go to the games dressed as Ditka.
02:31If you win in Chicago, you're God.
02:34How did Michael Jordan do in Chicago?
02:37He was the king.
02:38He still is.
02:39He doesn't even have anything to do with Chicago anymore.
02:41And he's still God there.
02:43And Jesus rolled into one.
02:46Clearly you want to win in Chicago over a place like Las Vegas.
02:49This is where you go to party.
02:50I mean, I know they won the Stanley Cup, but let's calm down.
02:54They've never won anything else.
