  1. I'm not greatly against selling the naming rights, but personally, I will not give money to whatever company buys the rights.
  2. I guess there will be a few less 15 yard unsportsmanlike conduct penalties now that Garay is gone.
  3. Man I wish we had a spot for Murton in our everyday lineup. If we traded for Roberts, we would have an IF and an OF who could start for many teams, but are on our bench.
  4. I knew we'd at least try to blow it. I am actually kinda hoping we do, it would be hilarious for Lou to flip out over a spring game.
  5. Which one of our Cobs is going to blow it today?
  6. Lee says some things that can indirectly seem critical to Fukudome's signing in that article.
  7. And exactly how many World Series' have the Mariners been in/won? The Mariners are one of the few teams that can't laugh at the Cubs misery, although they have of course only been around a fraction of the time.
  8. All of those guys sent to minor league camp just need to wander across the complex to minor league camp. The guy optioned to Iowa has to go back to Iowa immediately and wait there until the rest of the team arrives from minor league camp in a couple of weeks. What's the point in that?
  9. Mariners and Cubs pretty much throwing out their A lineups out there today. I think 7 of the 8 M's starters are in there, as well as 5 of the Cubs 8 (with 2/3, Soriano and DeRosa, hurt)
  10. And the good thing is the division stayed exactly the same over the offseason.
  11. DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE
  12. Here are the Bears selections in various mock drafts from both professional writers and bloggers. All were updated yesterday. The Mock draft list was taken from http://www.hailredskins.com/MockDraft.htm Scout - Mendenhall, RB, Illinois Pierogi's - Sweed, WR, Texas MyNFLDraft - Stewart, RB, Oregon (please no) FF Jungle - Williams, OT, Vanderbilt Consensus Draft - Otah, OT, Pittsburgh D&J Mock Draft - Clady, OT, Boise State Inside the Eagles - Phillips, S, Miami Fantasy Football Xtreme - Brohm, QB, Louisville Draft Prospects - Clady, OT, Boise State Huddle Geeks - Harvey, DE, Florida Sportscity - Stewart, RB, Oregon (please no) East Coast Sports - Otah, OT, Pittsburgh Junk Yard Jake - Mendenhall, RB, Illinois So 13 mock drafts, 9 different selections, 6 positions. They are all over the place about the Bears.
  13. I could see them taking Flacco in the 3rd. I think he'll go before the third. One crazy mock draft had him going late first, but that was before the combines.
  14. I'll believe it when I see it. and since I'll be at work during the game and the game doesn't appear to be on TV, it's going to be awhile before I believe it.
  15. QB and likely RB they won't address. I think they believe that with a good offensive line, the QB and RB will be better. The problem is, they aren't doing crap about the offensive line and that worries me. I'm starting to be worried that they are gonig to rely on Josh Beekman to win the OG spot. I heard he was terrible in camp last year. WR I'm pretty sure they are expecting to get a WR in the 2nd or 3rd round and make their receiving corps Booker, Bradley, Hester, Davis, Rookie, Haas. So my guess for the draft is 1st: OT 2nd: WR 3rd: QB/RB 4th: OG 5th: NT 6th: Some pet defensive player that Angelo loves And their depth chart will be QB: Grossman, Orton, Rookie RB: Benson, (possibly a player like Dunn but probably not), Peterson, Wolfe FB: McKie WR: Booker, Bradley, Hester, Davis, Rookie, Haas TE: Olsen, Clark LT: Tait, St. Clair LG: Beekman, Metcalf C: Kreutz, Oakley RG: Garza, Rookie RT: Rookie DE: Ogunleye, Idonije DT: Harris, Toeania DT: Dvorchek, Rookie DE: Brown, Anderson MLB: Urlacher, Wilson OLB: Briggs, Williams OLB: Hillenmeyer, Okwo? CB: Tillman, Vasher, McBride, Manning Jr, Payne, Graham SS: Manning, Archuletta (but will probably get cut) FS: Brown, McGowin K: Gould P: Maynard Thats 50 of the 55 roster spots
  16. This is my favorite line:
  17. I posted the link to the podcast on OH, and one of the posters listened and said this about it: Looks like a false alarm.
  18. Oh and I'm at work, but if anyone wants to listen to the interview to verify the info, the link for it is here: http://www.wfan.com/pages/744503.php
  19. Time to stir the pot (from OH): I don't know if its true. This guy has posted true info before (user name Harry Carry). It's probably not true because it goes against everything we've heard lately (no Marquis or Payton)
  20. They'd rather not take the PR hit and risk losing him to the Penal League halfway through the season.
  21. Alrighty. Hopefully he looked good in getting shelled
  22. Look for this trade to be announced today, so as to not give Brett Favre's retirement its day in the sun.
