Y'all might enjoy this look at where the NFC North will be if there is a ~$120 million cap.

Since this board was pretty pro-league when we discussed the current lockout, I'm curious as to where everyone stands on the James Harrison comments. Also, if the Steelers cut ties with him, would you want him on the Bears?

Finally bought some PSL's this year and got a parking pass!!! It took about 3 years to find the seats i wanted and work a deal. Now that the hard part is over the NFl and Players are in a lockout, can i catch a break!!!!! I was not nervous when this lockout started but have been getting more and more as the months go on. At the start of this mess i was on the owners side, but now im pissed at both sides. From an outsider looking in it looks as tho the owners have come down a lot from their first offer and its now the players turn to come down. Either way if any games are missed i will be pissed at both sides for a long time. Ill still go to the games and root but will jad…

good riddins' D Manning.... Thoughts?

Hub Arkush hears Cullen Jenkins & Bears might have a deal in place #Bears #News http://chicagofootballtalk.com/lol

Since it's so slow while we wait for players and owners to agree on how they can all be rich I decided to post this article I found on the Bears website. Great story with some great names in it. I only copied one small paragraph below http://www.chicagobears.com/tradition/hof-connor.asp During his eight years in Chicago, Connor gained the rare distinction of earning all-NFL honors at three different positions-offensive tackle, defensive tackle, and linebacker. Although George is remembered as one of the finest of the post-World War II tackles, it was as a linebacker that he enjoyed his greatest stardom in pro football. He was one of the first to become a regul…

With the new CBA coming up and free agency about to start who do you think we need to really go after? IMHO we need to go after offensive lineman such as either Carl Nicks from the Saints or logan Mankins from the Patriots or one of the two from the Falcons. And next would be a big WR like Malcom Floyd or V Jackson from the Chargers or Sidney Rice or Plaxico Burress. As for my i wish we would but dont stand a chance .....would be Nnamdi Asomugha CB from the Raiders.

I live in South Denver and waiting for the single game tickets to go on sale. I have a couple of buddies flying in from Chicago to attend and wanted to know if any you denver based Bears fans are planning on attending? If you are let me know and we can tail gate before the game. ParkerBear7

Some Bears/Free Agency related news coming out of a CBA rumor. \Link Would also clear up the status for a number of other guys, including some WR's who could interest the Bears.

Ok now that the man will be free today.....the question is do we make a run to sign him once the lockout is over? IMO I would try in a heartbeat. He will be a perfect fit for the bears passing game and someone cutler can throw to. I like our WR's , but I say this all the time...with the tallest being 6'0 they are just too small to do real damage. Burress will make and have mismatches all day with the 6'1 and under DB's in the game. This will be a great advantage for the Bears, even more so in the red zone where we really need the height. If not Burress then Floyd or Jackson from the Chargers will do

http://bearingthenews.com/?p=1565 Does Mike Martz Have Too Much Power? If So He’s Not Alone. The world is full of compromise. And no one apparently hates it any more than Timothy Miller of Endwell, N.Y. Tim is apparently convinced that offensive coordinator Mike Martz is ruining the Bears franchise. How else do you explain the fact that he emailed not one, but two NFL writers asking if Martz has cast a spell over the team that will lead to its ultimate demise. First, let’s see shat ESPN‘s NFC North blogger Kevin Seifert has to say (http://espn.go.com/blog/nfcnorth/post/_/id/27117/nfc-north-weekend-mailbag-41): “Tim of Endwell, New York, writes: Do …

Closest thing to football news during the lockout? Football video game news! So apparently Madden 12 is going to have a new feature called Dynamic Player Performance: it's basically confidence/streakiness built into the game. A QB's confidence goes down if he gets sacked or picked off enough times, and he performs worse on subsequent throws. It goes up when he completes a few passes or throws a TD, and then he starts performing better. Same goes for every other position: some WRs play better if they get a lot of passes early on, etc. Specifically, they mentioned that Jay Cutler's player rating can go as low as 75 or as high as 90, depending on whether he's hot o…

Apparently, since the Bears practice at Olivet Nazarine University, if the Lockout starts leading to a delay in the start of the season/end of training camp, the Bears may be forced to either break camp early or else find a fully new camp location. The Fall semester starts August 27th.

Seems like the NFL players union this board has taken a dump. I know there is not anything to write about, But it seems like everytime I come here nobody is even browsing. Oh well, my 2 cents for the moment.
