Bradley will be starting instead of Gage Sunday.

 

Oh, and please win.

 

It's about time. Gage stinks. All that talent and athletic ability for nothing. I'd like to see more Bobby Wade over him.

I'm glad Bradley is going to start. Realistically Gage and Wade suck. I really like to see what we have in Airese Curie. He is a speed burner but he is not elgible to come back until week 6, but he is recovering from a bye week. I think he can be a pretty good WR for us and def better than Wade IMO. Here's hoping the Bears win this one.

I will be at this game. Never been to Cleveland so I am very excited.

 

It's very underrated, or so I am told. Check out the R&R Hall of Fame while you're there.

Meh. The stadium is pretty nice I'm told, but Cleveland isn't a super-cool town. Tower City's pretty neat, but it's no more special than other similar places(Mag Mile, Union Station in STL, etc.) IIRC, the stadium is right on the lake, so count on cooler temps than the forecast predicts.

I have a friend who goes to law school there and I think he has a lot of stuff planned for us to do this weekend. I am pretty sure it will mainly involve bars, but I will make time for the HOF. He did tell me that Cleveland got rid of all trashcans downtown and it is the dirtiest city he has ever seen.

Just a word of warning, and I have no first hand evidence to back it up. But apparently visiting team fans aren't treated well AT ALL in Cleveland. I mean, AT ALL. Just so you know. Browns fans are surprisingly die-hard.

Ever been to London?

 

Not yet. Hope to move there when I graduate though. Is it pretty dirty?

Thanks for the warning. I will try not to be "that guy" I do hope it is not as bad as I saw Eagles fans get treated at the playoffs a few years ago at Soldier. I felt terrible for those people. There was almost a riot in one of the bathrooms.

Maybe someday I'll get a Bears game here. Maybe if they play Pittsburgh or Philly :cry:

 

Dude, they were at the Meadowlands last year...if I can make it to Happy Valley for a game, you can make it to East Rutherford.

 

 

Incidently, love the sig. picture of Joe and the boys. Lets hope our football teams take a bite out of Ohio this year.

i'd just like to say that if we signed jeff george now, we could be in the playoffs without any problem.

 

please angelo, at least consider it.

 

And I'd like to add, that if Angelo listened to all the experts and signed Warner or Fiedler, they'd be no better off.

 

George doesn't guarantee a thing. Stick with Orton. The goal is the super bowl, not to sneek into the playoffs. If Orton gets them there great, but I'd rather learn what they have at the position, and be in a position for a real competition in 2006 than hope George gets them 8 wins and then start all over again next year.

I hate all of this Jeff George talk, if he's so great, then why hasn't any team picked him up in the last 3 years? I'd rather let Orton play the full year, he's almost as experience now as Grossman is..

The Bears picked him up last year. Obviously they don't want him, or else they would have signed him as the backup in the offseason.

Not living in Chicago, I haven't even heard any Jeff George talk. Are you kidding me? What has that guy ever won? He ain't the difference between this team being what it is and this team getting to the next level.

 

If the Bears can make the playoffs with what they got, a soft schedule and a ridiculous division, its something to build on. Winning eight games with a "veteran" qb that will be gone next year for Grossman won't accomplish a damm thing.

If the Bears make the playoffs with Orton under center, it better be his job to lose to Grossman in training camp. I am tired of all this Grossman talk and if Orton can lead us to the playoffs, there is no reason why he shouldn't start again next year.

If he stays healthy and looks decent, it'll be really interesting to see that competition next summer.

Yeah, I can back that up. Usually with baseball you are pretty safe. But with football, the drunks get a little more noisey. :?
