  1. That's a really good article. Lots of interesting stuff in there.
  2. Not the fans' fault the McCaskeys spent their money in the wrong place. They wanted to own an NFL team. Now deal with the problems.
  3. It has nothing to do with being a celebrity. It's a minor traffic violation so it's not like he's under any obligation to talk to them. The fact that there are supposed charges pending makes me think he is under obligation. What kind of obligation? People hire an attorney and then stop talking all the time.
  4. a better question, is there a position you wouldn't take from the Vikings and give to the Bears? QB, because I don't think we'd contend with Favre, and he'd be retired before we would be able to put an OLine in front of him of any competence. We need someone young enough to outlast Lovie & Angelo.
  5. It would also be nice if the OLine and DLine were one position. Alas, not so lucky.
  6. I don't know how they improve the OLine with Angelo. He's abysmal at OLine. I suspect the OLine coaching is really bad too because it's just hard to believe they could really be this bad on their own with good coaching. But mostly, Angelo can't get the job done in this area so our once promising QB acquisition is likely to continue to run for his life, or be relegated to 3-step quick throws to avoid hospital bills. This, right here, is the single most depressing thing for me as a Bear fan. Can't win without a solid OLine. Can't get one with Angelo. Done. End of story.
  7. Gaines is a bust. His own coach called him a possible bust heading into the season, then they dumped him. A 2nd round pick is a valuable pick. Angelo screwed up big time on that trade. What is going to make Gaines a great player suddenly? He's too small and doesn't show much heart. I don't even think that kind of stuff is necessarily even coachable. It was the wrong trade at the wrong time for this club. I'm really angry at Angelo for that one.
  8. Lovie: "the Sun normally comes up..." lol, your head coach ladies and gentlemen.
  9. How can we even make improvements with no draft picks? Of course even if we had draft picks, we've proven to be unable to draft the correct players. We can buy a few FAs, but how many FAs that are legit building blocks are out there every year? A handful at most, and the best are probably going to be out of the Bears price range. Yep. My entertainment dollar will be going elsewhere for the forseeable future. Probably to the Hawks.
  10. Phoned it in the last 30 minutes, no question. I'm not used to seeing Bear teams give up. Bottom line: not one dime goes to this franchise until I see improvements. Big improvements.
  11. So this game shows how far away from winning the division the Bears are. If they don't make big changes after seeing how dreadfully outmatched they are in their own division, can they realistically tell fans they are even trying to win? I don't think they can.
  12. There's just so many holes...
  13. At least Troy and Joe are correctly pointing out what Cutler is fighting through. It gets tiring hearing about all of Cutler's mistakes while the the multiple other failures receive barely a mention.
  14. Apparently giving a 10 yard cushion is no longer enough; the Bears have Vasher running backwards before the ball is even snapped.
  15. I want to smash something.
  16. The big "risk" the Bears would have taken was losing by 24 instead of 17. Yea, let's punt again. Sure why not?
  17. My God, there wasn't anyone anywhere near the cutback lane. They might as well not even be on the field. Fuckity [expletive] [expletive]!
  18. Turnover is the only chance to stop them. I love Peterson, but at some point he's going to have to deal with his fumbling problem. It's not always going to be with a comfortable lead.
  19. In '06 that was probably true. Not so much now.
  20. Hahaha. It's a miracle Jay isn't in the hospital by now.
  21. Blow it up. Blow it up. Blow it the hell up.
  22. The Vikings' fight song sounds like something you'd hear at a Hitler rally in 1938.
  23. I'm going to go kill some innocent animals.
  24. Wonderful. Of course Cutler gets the blame for that too.
  25. Typical dumb challenge by our dumb, challenged coach.
