Cubs News: Ryan Poles admits to 'breaking a couple of trash cans' during season


by - Senior Editor -

Watching the Bears can cause a lot of stress if they aren't playing well.

Ask Bears general manager Ryan Poles.

Poles was recently on Bernstein and Holmes on 670 the Score and talked about the difficult 2022 season in which the Bears only won three games.

"It was a really good learning experience this year. There were times where I probably didn't control myself very well," Poles admitted. "Thankfully, I wasn't seen. I broke a couple of trash cans."

Poles is going to try to not let his emotions get the best of him this season.

"There are those moments, but it's also like, 'Alright, keep your composure,'" Poles said. "You gotta let that 24-hour period, kind of sleep on some stuff and show up the next day with a clear mind. It's really about finding solutions and not pointing at problems and letting your emotions get the best of you."

While it's understandable for someone in Poles' position to feel frustrated and upset when the team isn't performing well, it's important for him to maintain his composure and lead by example.

As the Bears gear up for the 2023 season, fans and staff alike are hoping for better results on the field.

With Ryan Poles at the helm, there's reason to be optimistic that the team can turn things around and get back to its winning ways.
