  1. I saw something on the news that the messago board was getting out of hand? You guys know what happened?
  2. Williams went on Afterward, Williams said he didn't regret making the guarantee. "No, because everyone believes what I said," he told Albom. Williams caught six passes for 71 yards in the loss -- and he issued another guarantee afterward. "You can all run with this: We will win the [next] game," he told reporters. "I don't care who it's against. We will win the game as long as we do what we're supposed to do. That's my comment for the whole week."
  3. I think you proved how much that means at this point when I see him edging out Batch, Carr, Rivers and Pennington. At most one of those guys will be in the top 5 at the end of the year. Go Vikes! The Bears have looked damn good in the first two games, but this should be their first actual test. The Bears arent going to test the Vikings. When you have a team like the Bears who are clearly better than the Vikings, you dont call that a test. You call that a mismatch.
  4. Methinks the Vikings might be a sleeper team this year. After watching enough of that game, I can tell you that the Panthers had that game locked up before Chris Gamble decided to throw the game away. Believe me, if there ever was a loss that could be pinned on a single player, this would be a really good example of it. Chris Collinsworth was blaming John Fox, saying he called for that pass, but I don't know if that was just assumption on Collinsworth's part. Fox said after the game that all the plays go through him and that he specifically OK'd it. Really dumb play by the part of a coach who generally knows what he is doing.
  5. 18 Kyle Orton 12 Justin Gage 17 Airese Currie 71 Israel Idonije 82 Gabe Reid Were these guys inactive because they were hurt or because there was no more room on the roster?
  6. Good game for the Bears. The running attack bothers me a little, btu I have faith. What was wrong with the field? The grass looked terrible!
  7. I didn't see the play on replay, but was his arm really hit as he threw?
  8. "Yeah, give them credit," Favre said. "(But) maybe we just ain't very good." True dat
  9. What was that sound for? It sounded like a remote controlled car revving. It must have gone off 50 times. I hated it.
  10. Not sure if this has been posted, but rumor has it that Bowa is in the managerial hunt now. Please Jim no!
  11. Why can't Mohammad be good? Most people think he is a good number two receiver or average number one, but in 2004 he arguably the best receiver in the league. Now he is just a number two? Does the Bears offense not give him opportunities? Is the QB the problem? Has his talent gone downhill?
  12. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=2562310 Girardi>Dusty but would he make a good fit as a Cub manager next year?
  13. New Benson quotes from the Trib "But darn (edited). I'm afraid to let my guard down because the moment I do is the moment somebody will . . . you know what I mean?" So you violate team rules, someone squeals, and you are mad at that?
  14. Cedeno this year AVG .248 | HR 5 | RBI 31 | OBP .273 | SLG .335
  15. Did you guys want Cadillac all along or was there someone else? A TE? Oh the Bears could have had the guy the Sttlers got. I wanted him from the beginning.
  16. I wanted he WR that Detroit got, but I heard he stinks too. Was Cadillac available for the Bears?
  17. What is Benson doing? I have a feeling that Lovie wants Jones to play but is under pressure form Angelo to play Benson. Now he just leaves and watches the game inside? Weird.
  18. Well if he can play solid D, get a few timely hits, and keep himself from doing anything terribly dumb it isn't a bad deal. I am sure they will dump him next season. He isn't a bad bench player if that's all he is for them next year.
  19. Jones had the only 1300 yard season by a Bear RB outside of Payton with a terrible QB who they stacked 8 at the line every play. The Bear D doesn't want to lose games just because Angelo wants his guy in there. With that said, when Benson played last year he did well. Jones might not be proven, but he is more proven that Benson as far as the NFL goes.
  20. As the Tigers are about to find out. Watch him pull a Maddux on us not grounf out to the 2B every at bat Well yesterday wasn't a great start. 0-4, first 2 outs were made on the first pitch, in all he swung at every first pitch and his last AB he grounded into a double play. How long will that nonsense last with Leyland? Man don't the Tigers have a minor leaguer who knows how to work the count who could have come up instead? If the Tigers get a ring this year there is no way Neifi should get one. It's kind of like the PH/3B that was on the Cubs in the 03 season who got traded to the Marlins. Man what was his name? Lenny Harris? Yes Lenny Harris
  21. It doesn't seem like the team is very fond of Benson. I'd say it's likely these guys split carries unless one of them gets red hot. Well the team thinks it can contend for a Super Bowl and they want to go with a proven winner. I am not saying that Benson can't do the job, but if you are on the defense you realize this could be your only chance for a Super Bowl. Freak injuries occur all the time and the Bears have been relatively healthy so far. Plus the Bears have a super easy schedule. This is the Bears best chance since 85 at the beginning of the season for another Super Bowl title.

  24. I think Neifi also said, "When you have a second baseman with a .280 OBP it's tough to win"
  25. Dusty isn't getting into brawls with his players ala what happened in Toronto tonight.
