    you beat texas at texas. and you beat us at lawrence last year. I'm worried about the game. you should be more worried about your trip to columbia on saturday. okay, i'm lying. i'm expecting you guys to finally get a win in the new arena, and i bet it will be by at least 15. I don't know what you're talking about. We'll probably dominate that game, and then get punked by Baylor and Colorado in our building over the next couple weeks. Inconsistency is mind bending. That's a good point, but since we played so well at KU, and now people expect us to beat them at home every year, I have a feeling we are going to get trounced.

    Missouri is #36 right now, which I'm pretty happy with. No one outstanding on that list, but a lot of holes are being filled and there are some interesting players.

    This has probably been asked, but where can I find the audio for that call? http://www.wbbm780.com It's on the right side, there is a little play button underneath "Super Bowl Highlights"

    The WBBM radio call on Hester's return was unbelievable. I miss the Bears already :(

    Schaub is a restricted FA after this season, I believe? Or maybe it's next year? Its this year.

    Yup, best to judge a quarterback after his first full season of play. Unfortunately, many of Rex's flaws are not ones that are easily corrected, IMO. He has little poise under pressure, throws off his back foot too much, has poor pocket awareness, and seems to have an obstinate attitude regarding his flaws. Personally, I have always been very patient when it comes to developing players, like Corey Patterson, for example. But I see little in Rex Grossman that inspires confidence that he will develop into anything other than a league average QB, at best. And given his set of flaws, I think that would take 2-3 years to achieve. The Bears' overall talent level puts them in a position to win again next year, and perhaps the next, but the window will not be open forever. If I am Angelo, I move to add some stability to the offense. And the problem is if Rex isn't the answer, Griese isn't either, and Orton could easily be out of the league by next year. Do the Bears make a trade for someone like Byron Leftwich, which I don't see. Is a back-up like Schaub in Atlanta a better option then Grossman? Or do you go with a rookie straight out of the draft? I would not be against them signing Schaub.

    Am I right in thinking that the Bears are having a losers parade when they return?

    They're the best team in the world. No, they're the winner of the SB, not the best team in football, much less the best team in the world. If that game is played on grass, Bears win. That may sound like sour grapes, but it's true. How about we actually have the SB in football conditions instead of a vacation destination. The Bear's were simply out of their league. The Colts didn't play their best football, and still beat the Bears, the Bears would have lost to NE, SD, Bal, or Indy. SIMPLE. sweet, i love when random people repeat what they hear on espn on the internet and act like its a unique thought What? I don't need ESPN or the internet to tell me what to think. The Bears couldn't have beaten New England, Baltimore, or San Diego, or Indianapolis, and that blantantly obvious. You make it seems as though Indy, came and played their best game. When the fact remains, They played shaky as well. Moot point. Different teams, different players, different coaches, different game plan.

    Just wondering, the only place I've heard about it is here, why all the sudden talk of Lovie leaving? I know he wants a new contract, but he's still got a year left, right?
  13. Butterscup1679666578
    Z and Lee for Neifi! Hendry at his best. Followed by the releasing of Ramirez to make room for Macias and the trade of Soriano+Barrett for Bako.
  14. Butterscup1679666578
    maybe the cubs will make a big trade tomorrow to cheer all us up

    Chico and Turner can walk for all I care. help me and tell me why.... :shock: If any team hires Ron Turner, God bless them. What college football program wants to be driven into the ground? I hadn't heard? Mizzou will probably hire him in a year or two.
  16. Butterscup1679666578
    Lovie agreed thirded.

    You think the Cubs are going to help your sorrows? I was excited for baseball up until tonight, now I don't even care. Exactly. I know -- I'm screwed. But I am also doomed to keep hoping that one of these years, one of these teams I root for will finally win it all..... I can't stop being a fan. Go Cubs! Yeah, I feel ya. As the great Harry Caray once said... “Chicago people are kind of fatalistic, but they continue to hope that somehow, some way the Cubs will shock even them and win it just one time. Their fatalism allows them to enjoy the team's success, knowing that one horrible thing will happen down the line to rip the rug out from underneath them."

    This guy has it right. I demand this game be struck from the records and replayed when the conditions are more suitable for safe football!

    My girlfriend hasn't said a word to me on AIM since about 8:36. She's a smart girl.

    I'd like to see them add a WR in the 2nd or 3rd round. Moose is getting old and you can't expect Bradley to be healthy.
  22. Butterscup1679666578
    Damn, I didn't even win any money tonight in the squares pool. This sucks.

    They should put the franchise tag on Briggs, but I dont see that happening. I believe Ed Reed is going to be a FA at safety. The Bears need a safety, IMO. They're going to have to draft a line backer, a HB, possibly even a tight end, and a OL in the draft. Adding Ed Reed would make the defense filthy. I didn't think Reed was an FA. Asante Samuel is though, I wouldn't mind adding him and shifting Tillman. I don't see Asante keeping up his play going forward, I'd rather keep Tillman at corner. Really? He's only 26, and he's improved every year. I think he'd be a solid pickup. I'd rather keep Tillman there though and somehow acquire a true safety.

    Progression is fickle thing in football. It's not like baseball where you can grow every year, football teams are constantly up and down, mostly because injuries are so sporadic.
