Doesn't he also have several advertising deals as well? I can't imagine a long hold out would sit well with those companies. Peace

Agreed. Get into camp and we will start negotiations again. This is absolutely the wrong thing to do at this time. Peace

Dude, you got married? Congrats and best of luck!!!! Peace

I went a couple of years ago and had a good time. However, it did not compare to the Platteville experience. I went to Platteville twice. The place was much more fan friendly. The players were very accessible. It did not feel like a corporate production which is how I see Bearbonnais. Peace

You are the one who thinks that Bradley has a vagina. Just sayin.... Peace

Predictions: We will carry 4 RB and 1 FB this yr. AP will be the special teams captain. Peace

Please no. I do not see him as an improvement to what we have on the roster. Peace

With the offense we have, this lack of respect is is expected. Peace

I expect them to keep him around in camp to make sure we have no injuries and trade him just before the start of the season. A 5th rounder would be fine as compensation in my opinion. Peace

The Packers will not release him. They will trade him to a team like the Jets. No way does he end up in our division on another team. Peace

Turnovers breakdown as follows: Brown has 11 FF and 3 int. Wale has 9 FF. I am wondering if Wale's contract shoots up big time next yr and the Bears are thinking of letting him go at the end of the yr. I guess we will just have to agree to disagree as I don't have an issue with either extension. Peace

You stated the Bears had not done 'dick' with the 31 million in cap space. I was simply letting you know that yes they had actually been very busy and have spent most of their money. I would have loved to see them go get a Fanaca but I know the policy of Jerry and company is to reward there own which they have done. Peace

31 million in cap space and we didn't do anything with it??? Let's see: - Alex Brown extension - Rex Grossman extension - Kyle Orton extension - Robbie Gould extension - Lance Briggs extension - Rasheed Davis extension - Desmond Clark extension - Tommie Harris extension - Booker signed for 2 yrs - Lloyd signed 1 yr - All rookies signed except Williams I'm probably missing someone in there. You may not agree with what they did with the money but they have followed their policy of taking care of their own. I think we still have approximately 3 million left to the cap (outside of the rookie cap). We will use this money by November to extend Hester or Url. Peace

Got this thing in the NFL called a salary cap which makes giving them whatever they want not possible. The offer on the table to Url is more than fair considering he has 4 yrs left on his contract. Peace

I would be extremely happy with these #s from Forte. That's approximately 16 carries a game which most likely leaves 100 to 150 between Peterson and Wolfe. Peace

I think Favre is a dipstick and should stay retired. I hate the Packers but I think he is thoroughly screwing them. As a said before, the dude needs a hobby. Finally, as great a player as he has been, I do not want him on the Bears. Peace

Please give him being childish with this request. To my knowledge, Brian has hardly said anything at all about this in public. Most of the news has come from sources. The only action that he has taken was skipping most of the voluntary workouts. Not that I agree with his demands. I just don't see him being childish. I would call Briggs actions last yr childish. In fact, he was a complete drill rod. One clarification - I believe the offer the Bears have put on the table is more than generous. At this point they should tell Brian this is there final offer and they expect him to honor his contract. Peace

I would agree with this statement. We could talk about it anyway you like. Hell, I would argue we should really talk about JA since Lovie's hire since Jauron was not his coach of choice. Point being, we will simply have to agree to disagree. Peace

During the 6 yr period, Washington is 1-2 in the playoffs and has not made the division championship game. During the 6 yr period, Cincy is 0-1 in the playoffs. During the 6 yr period, KC is 0-2 in the playoffs. During that same time the Bears are 2-2 in the playoffs with an appearance in the Superbowl. I would say that is definately better than all 3. Peace

I really don't think Brian has done a very admirable job as the team leader at least in the role of face to the public. He is very uncomfortable in front of the camera. He can tend to act childish when he is upset (case in point last yr). I think he would love to fade into the background and let someone else take that role. Tommie would be the perfect choice. I would love to see someone on the offensive side of the ball step into this role. Peace

Got to love Mike Brown. He is probably my favorite Bear on the current roster. That being said, I am hoping beyond hope that one of the younger players on the roster is ready to step up into his role because we simply cannot depend on him staying healthy. Payne or Steltz - I really don't care who it is. Peace

Agreed. Happy 4th everyone. Please be safe out there. Peace

His contract was up. He was getting 1.5 million a yr but getting killed in the ratings. I think after 16+ yrs, people were tired of his act. I am extremely happy Mully and Hanley are getting additional time out of this. They are great when talking about the Bears - my favorite topic. Peace
