Welcome to the site

Nothing left in the Tank?

Tank who? Great move by Angelo to jump on a guy like this for next to nothing.

How about the Con-Vicks?

Its heeeeeeeeeeeeere

Awesome. With Briggs getting signed, we have EVERYONE in camp from DAY ONE! How sweet is that?

Rosenhaus and Briggs totally got their lunch money taken in this process by Jerry Angelo and the Bears. It is good to see Briggs back, as it gives the guys behind him another year to learn the game and system.

Numbers don't always tell the whole story... Without a guy like Urlacher to take the attention, and a system that allows him to do what he does, Briggs doesn't put up half of the numbers he does. Besides no one should be making that much for a guy who doesn't change the game. Brian changes the game, Lance does not.

Damn the Bears are doing a great job of locking down the core. Tommie Harris is the biggest name left, and he still has a couple of years before he has to get taken care of.

I am guessing there is a side agreement to lift the tag from Briggs if he plays this year.

Funny, I thought Ed Hocculi would be a little busy for Bears season tickets...

Lance Briggs has until 3pm today to sign a regular contract, otherwise the only contract he can play under in 2007 is the franchise tag and $7.2million. If he doesn't sign today, I'll bet we don't see him until week 10.

Congrats!

He could tell everyone its actually the Olsen triplets, not the Olsen twins

JTO signed with Detroit to compete for their 3rd QB spot.

Tommie Harris has to be the #1 priority right now. With the way the Bears drafted and sign to cover for Briggs, I am not nearly as worried about getting a deal done for him.

There is just no room for the guy with Griese, Orton, and Leak in camp behind Rexy.

Wow is this offense going to be fun. Hopefully Benson holds up and really keeps things in balance, and gives us chances to use our weapons.

I think you burn something like 0.01-0.015 per hour IIRC, so if there was the usual hour to two hour delay of getting him down to the station, booked, processed, blood taken etc, there is no doubt he was driving drunk.

The Empire dude is going to be soooo pissed

Excellent news, I can't believe it got done this quickly!

He wasn't drunk at the time of the blood test, but he would have been drunk hours prior while driving... That doesn't really help him.

Damn, that would have been nice depth for a guy who has already had some injuries.

Even if you think it, you don't say it to the media. That is just stupid.

My question is does this mean Benson will start crying about PT again?
