Bearstalk

So I just got this game yesterday and have been playing it for a while. There is a drastic difference between this year's game and last year's. They have changed the pace of the game to slow it down to make it seem realistic. It takes a while to get used to but I think it did the game well. They also changed the default quarter lengths to 7 min due to this change. - As far as the graphics go, this is the best looking madden game ever. Lots of little details in the game that I love. They finally got Matt Ryan's sleeves he wears in games (Other players wear them as well) and added new gloves and cleats so now Hester wears the orange gloves and cleats in the game like h…

Jay Cutler has moved from the #16th selling jersey to the #1 spot now as a Bear, according to the NFL team shop.

Look back at the 1985 Bears with a pretty sweet video, this definitely makes you feel good looking back at this.... it's worth the watch even if you aren't a Bears fan. They really did DOMINATE the NFL. http://www.chicitysports.com/2009/08/14/re...tness-85-bears/

Snap to it: Whereas fumbled snaps seemed to be a regular occurrence during the Rex Grossman Era, there has yet to be a bad exchange between Cutler and Kreutz. "There's always going to be some of those, no matter how long you've played," Kreutz said. "But Jay does everything well -- and that includes taking a snap."

Just heard by Chris Mortenson during the Steelers game that Micheal Vick just signed a 2 year deal with the Philadelphia Eagles. What do think is going through the mind of Donovan McNabb? http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=4397938

Eric Berry, fantasy guru, was just on ESPN FT and said that Hester is the biggest sleeper in FF this year. He led the Bears in times targeted last year, and had 8+ FF points in 4 of the Bears last 6 games. I agree with him. I'll be laughing by season's end when Hester is a 1100 yard receiver and I get him in round 10.

Somebody might have already brought linked here already but just in case, Grouchy is keeping his eye out. http://www.nfl.com/trainingcamp/story?id=0...mp;confirm=true

Just a thought here but with all the upbeat chat about Rideau and Aromashodu playing so well it's obvious Rashied Davis has not stood out in camp. Reality is that QBs decide where they are throwing the ball. Of course if the OC doesn't like the reads the QB is taking some risks but right now Cutler isn't worried about his job security. I'm just wondering if Cutler sees the athletic ability and potential of a guy like DA and is he just giving him as many chances as possible to make him successful at the expense of Rashied Davis? Consider that we have so many inexperienced WR and Davis knows our system very well. You'd think this situation would lead to Davis s…

Does anyone have any really good sites that you go to for Wallpaper. I just got a new PC so I am needing to decorate it if you know what I mean. P.S. Sorry Grouchy, I would love your sites but if I did that my wife would become an ex wife. She already is the jealous type.

It finally has come out that Tommie Harris has had his knee scoped in March and he is suffering from some problems with that surgically repaired hamstring. So this is not good news.
