Alright, let’s talk about this fella, Justin Fields. Folks are makin’ a big stink about him, so I figured I’d chime in. You know, like when the chickens get loose and everybody’s squawkin’.
This Fields kid, he used to play for them Chicago Bears. Now, I ain’t no football expert, mind you. I know more about plantin’ corn than throwin’ a pigskin. But even I can see the Bears weren’t doin’ him no favors. They had him runnin’ around like a headless chicken, never knew if he was comin’ or goin’. Heard tell they didn’t give him much help, no good players around him, like tryin’ to plow a field with a rusty ol’ tractor.
So, what happened? Well, the Bears, they went and got themselves a new shiny quarterback. Left Fields high and dry, like a scarecrow in a windstorm. And you know what? That boy, he wanted to stay in Chicago, bless his heart. He probably liked the city, maybe found a good pie shop or somethin’. But the Bears, they didn’t want him. Kicked him to the curb like an old boot.
- Now, he’s playin’ for the Pittsburgh Steelers.
- And wouldn’t you know it, the Steelers are doin’ real good.
- Winnin’ games and such.
Some folks are sayin’ Fields is embarrassin’ the Bears, showin’ ’em what they missed out on. Like a prize-winning rooster you gave away thinkin’ it was a hen. They say he’s a “steal,” whatever that means. Sounds like somethin’ you’d find at a flea market, but I guess in football talk it means he’s a good player they got for cheap.
I heard tell on the radio that nobody else wanted him much, ‘cept the Steelers. That Adam Schefter fella, he’s always talkin’ on the TV, says nobody was linin’ up to get Fields. Maybe folks thought he wasn’t any good after watchin’ him with the Bears. But the Steelers, they took a chance on him, like plantin’ seeds in rocky ground and hopin’ somethin’ grows.
And wouldn’t you know it, he’s sproutin’ up like a weed! Throwin’ the ball, runnin’ around, winnin’ games. He’s showin’ them Bears what for. Now some are sayin’ the Bears players are all upset about it, feelin’ bad about Fields leavin’. Guess they liked the boy, maybe he brought donuts to practice or somethin’. It’s like when your favorite cow gets sold to another farm, you miss her mooing in the mornin’.
So, what’s the deal with this Justin Fields? Well, seems to me he’s a good player who needed a change of scenery. The Bears didn’t treat him right, and now he’s shinin’ like a new penny. He’s a winner, plain and simple. And the Bears? Well, they might be kickin’ themselves right now, wishin’ they hadn’t let him go. Just like when you sell your grandma’s quilt at a yard sale and then realize it was worth a fortune.
Anyways, that’s my two cents on the matter. I might be an old woman who don’t know much about football, but I know a good egg when I see one. And Justin Fields, he seems like a good egg to me.
This whole thing reminds me of when my prize-winning pumpkin got stolen from the county fair back in ’78. I worked hard on that pumpkin, watered it every day, made sure the bugs didn’t get to it. And then, poof, gone! Just like that. Someone else got to enjoy the fruits of my labor. Sounds a bit like what happened to the Bears, doesn’t it?
So, let’s see what happens with Fields in Pittsburgh. Maybe he’ll keep winnin’ games, maybe he’ll lead them to the Super Bowl, whatever that is. All I know is, the boy’s got talent, and he’s finally gettin’ a chance to show it. And that’s somethin’ worth cheerin’ for, even if you don’t know a touchdown from a turnip.
One thing’s for sure, this whole Justin Fields story is more interestin’ than watchin’ paint dry. And that’s sayin’ somethin’.
