[It's over!!!]

The Bears really impressed me last night. My outlook for the season has done a complete 180.

[Bears give Robbie Gould 5-year extension]

This is very good news. Dependable kickers are a necessity in this day and age.

[Url plans to sit out from mini-camp...]

Urlacher's a big baby. He wasn't pouting when he signed the largest deal in NFL history (or something close). The times change, honor your freakin contract.

[Angelo on Benson]

I'm not happy with his last comments that he's dissapointed Cedric put himself in position to be the victim. Going out with your friends and family to party on a boat is not the same as going to a club with your shady friends from the past. That's not Benson putting himself anywhere, he was just living his life and not doing anything flashy or crazy. It wasn't even late night.

Naw, he was just piloting a boat while intoxicated. No big deal there.

[Do you trust Angelo's drafting?]

I highly trust Angelo to draft defensive players. He needs to bring in a consultant as far as the offensive side of the ball goes though.

[Missed the merge? Welcome]

Just noticed a lot of guys from "Bearstalk." I have to say I'm excited because lack of membership had me not coming back often. Welcome to Talkbears and I look forward to some really good discussions from here on out.
