Baby steps! Baby steps!

I really like your comments. This time of the year is so odd. Once you convince yourself one way or another about guys, it's easy to get disappointed. I really tried to just step back and just think position more than person, and have faith that Emery is good at what he does. (Granted, it's easy for me since I don't know much about college ball!) We got the pass rusher we wanted. Time to address OL and WR next...

Here's hoping you're 2 for 2 pix!

He was picked and I get the impression from what I've heard and read that he will prepare his butt off to help us win games. I am 100% in full support of this kid. There may have been other guys that we passed on that may be better and some that may end being worse. I just hope Shae is a solid contributor for years. If he is that. It'll be something that we've been lacking for a long while. Kick some ass Shae! You are a Bear now! (I reserve judgement for Emery and his picks. There's much more to see before a true assessment can be made.)

I'm all in on Emery! He more than deserves the benefit of the doubt!

I'd still take jason over Angelo!

I remember some gems between cracker and nfoligno as well!

Just be thankful you have hair...

I'm sure they do. But I take the comment to mean that they have 7 guys they feel may reasonably be available when the 19th pick comes up.

Agreed.

You're welcome! The phone may be smart, but not so strong...

Great work! Thanks for sharing!

Please never construe my calling you out for not hating the Packers enough for not loving the Bears. It could very well just be a generational thing... Timing does play a factor. Oh, I hated those Bears teams too...but it's a different hate. And I never hate my own team more than my opponent no matter how great the opponent is. I hate Minny. I'm just not worried about them. Hell, I feel the same about Detroit. But I do hate me some Suh big time. First off, I never said you are not a Bears fan. I tried to make somewhat of (an apparently failed) funny comment that part of loving the Bears is hating the Packers. I assume you do fully realize that when you say you don't remotely hate the Packers as your opening line, you're bound to get some comment? You are obviously younger than I, and didn't live through the rivalry in the 70's and 80's as I did. You didn't get to see McMahon's career and the '85 Bears potential dynasty ruined by one of the cheapest shots in sports history. You did make mention of that. But, when you sluff it off, some, like myself, can't sit idley by and see a Bears fan proclaim non-hatred of Green Bay. ...it really could just be an age thing and when we grew up watching. For me at least, part of the Bears love comes hand in hand with Packers hatred.

I'm waiting for the drum fill.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a77vmXC4AjY

Wow... I am in shock. So, you loved watching Favre obliterate our team our team for a decade in the 90's and just felt hunky dory that this wonderful Packers team destroyed us continually? Youth... You know not what you say... If you carry the Bears fan card, the back of it has a strict requirement that you hate the Packers. Nothing said you can't respect them. But, you gotta hate. It's not a Stalin-like hatred mind you, just a rival hatred. Gotta hate the Packers man! At least you seem to dislike Detroit....got to start somewhere.

Thanks for sharing that Pix!

It's all about what we could get for him, and I honestly don't feel we'd get enough at this point in his career. A 3rd to me is not worth it.

Was that the Butkus retirement rain game?

I follow... Another TB friend (yeah, I know...it's wierd that so many folks in CA like the Bucs!) said glowing things about Geno. Said that Morris didn't do enough to prep him. That under Kiffin, he was thriving, once the coaching changed, and lack of good people around him, he started to slip. He thinks w/ Marinelli, the scheme, and Url and Briggs supporting him, he could be a steal. I simply like what I'm hearing...

Sounds like a good hope to me...

Sounds like it's best to do something else in the Bay area than go to a pro game!
