I love this quote of an article now on the Bears Web Site from "Pisa" “I like the fact that I have to earn a job here,” Tinoisamoa said. “There was an opportunity to go to other teams, but it was like, ‘We’re going to give you the job.’ For me, that was awkward because I know there were guys who had been working since the end of last season, coming into this year and all the time they put in, and they felt like they were the starter, and all of a sudden somebody comes in and because he led another team in tackles and takes their job? “I wouldn’t appreciate that. So I didn’t want to go into a situation like that, and the fact that I have to come and earn a job, it definitely makes me more hungry because now I know I have to earn my job, it’s not just given to me.” Report

June 6, 200916 yr comment_65308 Pisa was St. Louis leading tackler last season and was a salary cap casualty this year. We got him for a song and he is reunited with his rookie year defensive coordinator who of course is our head coach. Definitely should push Roach for the starting "SAM" during the preseason. Holy cow who is this guy. Are we sure that he is an NFL player because he sure doesn't sound like one to me. Report
