I've gone ahead and set it to 1PPR. I also have it set for the Commish to review trades. I'm figuring I'll rubber stamp anything that seems reasonable, but bring it up to the group if anything seems weird. You can review all the settings and scoring here: http://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com/f1/189065/settings Let me know if anything looks like it needs to be changed. Some questions I have for everyone else on the settings: 1. Draft Time: Sat Aug 17 4:00pm CDT - Does this time work for most everyone? 2. Live Draft Pick Time: 1 Minute, 30 Seconds - Is 1:00 too short? Thoughts? 3. Roster Positions: QB, WR, WR, WR, RB, RB, TE, W/R, K, DEF, B…

Bears | D.J. Williams carted off Chicago Bears LB D.J. Williams (undisclosed) was carted off the field Wednesday, July 31, with an undisclosed injury. 2013-07-31 08:11:05 | Source: WSCR670 - Zach Zaidman Read more: http://www.kffl.com/gnews.php?id=863289-be...f#ixzz2adZ4pYTL Looks like we will be seeing more of the rookies now. Hopefully it isn't anything serious

I think anything negative about the Packers is Bears related and belongs on this site! http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1720418...s-training-camp

Even tho he isnt on the team anymore this is still hilarious! And about ribs! Anthony Adams Ribs Rap

I will not deny it, I'm elated with the direction the Bears are going with front office, coaching and personnel; I have high expectations for this season. http://blog.chicagobears.com/2013/07/31/of...ig-in-red-zone/ Offense comes up big in red zone Posted by Larry Mayer on July 31, 2013 – 5:45 pm The Bears defense boasts several talented Pro Bowlers. But the unit could have used a step ladder or an NBA power forward during a red-zone drill late in Wednesday’s practice. Taking advantage of a size differential, Jay Cutler threw touchdown passes to 6-3 receiver Alshon Jeffery, 6-4 receiver Brandon Marshall and 6-6 tight end Marte…

At this point we've lost our starting LT and replaced him with Jonathan Scott. Fair enough we keep Webb on the right side where we want him to play this season. Then we lose Jonathan Scott and we replace him with...Eben Britton at LT? At this point I see that Webb is fading from our top 3 OTs. Not saying he's lost his job yet but if versatility is what Kromer wants among his top 7 Olinemen (he said so yesterday) then at some point among these injuries if Webb was one of our top 3 OTs he'd have been slid over to LT for a day or two while Britton, or Scott, took snaps at RT. That didn't happen and Kromer and Co. decided they preferred to see what Britton could do…

BOURBONNAIS, Ill. -- Chicago Bears defensive end Corey Wootton left practice Thursday with a hip injury and is being evaluated. Going into his fourth season, Wootton had seven sacks in 16 games last year. wft is going on with all the injuries? They all need a shot of penicillin to get rid of that injury bug that is hanging in the air at training camp.

http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap100000022...red-lovie-smith It was all about Jay.

To kick off the season, I threw together an official TalkBears shirt! http://teespring.com/bromance And yes, I know it's hilarious.

One each for training camp, Trestman (kinda), and Emery: http://www.grantland.com/blog/the-triangle...s-training-camp http://www.grantland.com/blog/the-triangle...-coach-rankings http://www.grantland.com/story/_/id/953119...ager-philosophy

http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap100000022...ofter-last-year It was said in a positive way in that he's saying he so much better this year. The article linked above is pretty good. But in the video in that article, about 1:10 in, they mention that Cutler said "Not everyone on the team has bought into Trestman yet." I'm not sure what the context was but that's horrible if true. Let me know if you've heard discussions about Cutler's comment and what, if anything, explains it.

Brad Biggs ‏@BradBiggs 24m Pending a physical #Bears expected to sign TE Leonard Pope. Another end zone threat to throw out there. Speculation the Eldridge is being cut for Pope. Trying to cover a 2 TE set with Marshall, Jeffery, M. Bennett and Pope would be awfully difficult in the red zone.

When I saw that Slausson used to play center I immediately craved him playing there over Garza. An interior line of Long-Slausson-Brown should be very, very solid if that's what ends up happening. When Slausson signed he said the Bears offered him the best plan for the future(or something along those lines) which was an odd statement coming from a guy who signed a 1 year contract. I'm really hoping he gets signed long term and we can see that Long-Slausson-Brown combo for years to come.

I havent been on here much lately, I have noticed the FF2 league thing and joined that but have never seen anything on the FF1 league(the money league). Did I miss something or hasnt there been anything about that league yet?

@adamjahns 2h #Bears say they're still evaluating Earl Bennett for a concussion. He wasnt at practice today. @BearReport 2h Earl Bennett is still being evaluated for a possible concussion.
