As I said in my Twitter, I am VERY excited that the Bears got Jay Cutler from the Broncos.
The first question I have to ask is, “What did the Bears give up?” First, Kyle Orton. I really like Kyle Orton and I think he has a long future in the NFL. But, I’m not sure [...]

Many players opt to [...]

The Seahawks cut Alexander unconditionally. Perhaps worth a look for the Bears?
Wednesday, April 23rd, 2008Shaun Alexander wore out his welcome here in Seattle and was cut by the Seahawks Tuesday in a move that surprised no one. He was just 2 years into an 8 year contract worth $62 million. Because he’s a football player that money is not guaranteed so Alexander out a hefty chunk of change. But [...]
The Bears sign 2 washed up wide receivers to replace the 2 they just let go
Monday, March 10th, 2008The Bears have picked up re-tred Marty Booker and notorious malcontent Brandon Lloyd to round out their receiving corps.
These signings leave the Bears without a go to receiver for any of their inadequete quarterbacks to throw.

Mushin Muhammad is not the Bears problem anymore
Wednesday, February 27th, 2008Tra-la, tra-la, tra-la.
Mushin, thanks for bringing that veteran “leadership” and for letting your play do the talking. It really spoke more loudly than you ever could have.
The funny thing is that the Carolina Panthers are bringing him back. Don’t they know just as well as the Bears that Mushin isn’t all he’s cracked up to [...]
The Bears bring Grossman back to torture their fans
Saturday, February 23rd, 2008So we’re in for another year of “Rex is our quarterback”. Ugh. The Bears say that Grossman will have to compete for the starting job with Kyle Orton, Brian Griese or whomever the Bears bring in at quarterback. Hopefully they’ll draft a solid QB in the upcoming draft, but my confidence in Jerry Angelo drafting [...]
