Something Tells Me Matt Forte’s Touches Will Go Up Next Season

And not just because he’s got a huge plastic gun. According to John “Moon” Mullin of CSN Chicago, Chester Taylor could be done as a Bear…already. If this is indeed true, Forte will be sharing the load with Garrett Wolfe (if he sticks), Kahlil Bell (if he stays healthy), Harvey Unga (if he can leapfrog off [...]

Your 2011 Chicago Bears Free Agency Preview

Is it actually possible that Olin Kreutz has played his last game as a Bear? Well, shoot; what am I supposed to do with my AIM moniker “2LiveKreutz” now? For the sake of organization, we’ve broken this preview up into three sections: Bears unrestricted free agents, Bears restricted free agents, and other team’s unrestricted and restricted [...]

If Bill Murray Shoves You For Being A Packers Fan, No One Will Ever Believe You

Legend has it, if you ever encounter Bill Murray and you’re alone, he could possibly do something entirely ******* weird and mock you and your bewilderment with “No one will ever believe you.” So when Murray allegedly pushed a Packers fan in his back for cheering a play last Sunday, the Pack fan allegedly got [...]

Jay Cutler Has Obviously Given Up On Kristen Cavillari

I mean, just look at that body language; the dead eyes, the crossed-off body, the half frown. Jay Cutler is clearly quitting on his woman. Okay, so now that the dust has settled, I’ve had some time to reflect, and my blood is less boiled and not jam-packed with 1% alcohol, I must add one last [...]

Lovie Smith Will Be Back, To Talk Us All To Sleep

The amicable and well-mannered Bears head coach is on the verge of receiving a contract extension. Lovie Smith, who has led the Bears to three NFC North titles, two NFC Championship games and one Super Bowl in seven years, will likely re-up in the next few weeks. Smith has caught much flack since after the Bears’ [...]

Jay Cutler Should Have Just “Shot That Up With A Needle”

If you were anything like me, you were probably wondering why Jay Cutler didn’t come back into the NFC Championship game today. If you were like Asante Samuel, you just think he should have shot that problem knee up, Boobie Miles style. Per Eagles cornerback Asante Samuel’s Twitter: “Man shoot that [expletive] up with a needle. [...]

Does This Make Clay Matthews A More Steroid-Pumped Shawn Michaels?

From our brilliant friend David Taylor, comes this: Izzy Idonije and Julius Peppers as the iconic WWF tag team Demolition Legends of Doom. Why, of course. Ed. Note: Clearly, our view counter is out of whack, cuz we’d totally have at least 35 views by now.

Wherein We Attempt To Make Sense Of The Bears-Packers Hype

The Bears host the Packers this Sunday to decide who will play for a sparkly Super Bowl ring. And people just can’t stop talking about it. Could this be the greatest Bears game ever? It’s been 70 years since the two teams last met in the playoffs,  which means they’ve never even played one and another [...]

Jay Cutler’s Playoff Beard Will Lead Us Past Seattle

Green Bay’s win over Philly guaranteed that Marshawn Lynch and his beast mode run (you know, the one where he literally carried the Seahawks past the Saints by…uh, literally carrying the Saints through the end zone) would be visiting Chicago on Sunday. I would be worried, if it weren’t for that oh-so-soothing growth on Jay [...]

Will This Fat Packers Fan Eat An Entire Pig In Mourning Or Celebration?

With just a little less than one full quarter remaining, the Bears trail the Pack by a touchdown. Ironically, the Giants really want us to win, while Green Bay’s defense insists on playing like these Giants did in Week Four. To say it’s getting ugly would be a tremendous understatement.

Alex Brown Gets Booted From Bears Practice

In news that would have been more interesting one year ago, Alex Brown was escorted from Halas Hall this morning by security personnel. You see, it goes against the collective bargaining agreement for players to visit facilities of teams they’re not a part of. Kick you of Chicago once, shame on them; kick you out [...]

Listening On An Airplane: Mike Ditka Does It

From Deadspin — where, by the way, I’m still not qualified to comment — comes this strange video of Da Coach becoming aggravated by some stupid, non-Super-Bowl-winners’ lack of listening skills. “They say don’t get off the plane; everybody gets off the plane! Bunch of idiots!”

We don’t really understand betting. But, we like it. And while sites like Sports Interaction provide enthusiasts and novices a place for legitimate NFL betting — you know, stuff like head-to-head matchups and playoff winners — we wanted to occasionally visit just Bears contentions and, then, become are own oddsmakers. Okay, so what really is the [...]

Reviewing The 2006 NFL Draft Of NFC North Teams

So, how did these drafts work out? Fansided blog NFL Mocks did the review, and it went remarkably well for the Packers and Vikings. The Lions? Not so much. Their grade of C+ for a Bears draft which landed us Devin Hester, Danieal Manning, Mark Anderson, some other guys, and this douche to your left [...]

Shockingly, Roberto Garza ISN’T Up For “Favorite Super Bun”

Roberto Garza is nominated for “Favorite Athlete” in the 4th Annual American Latino TV Awards. Note: I said “favorite” and not “best”, as it is likely neither Garza nor the seven-years retired Rebecca Lobo would have made that cut.

Bears Take Out Newspaper Ad To Commemorate Blackhawks Win

To friendly remind Chicagoans that they still exist, the Bears took out a full-page ad in the Chicago Tribune half-congratulating the Hawks on their Stanley Cup championship and half-seizing the opportunity for good PR. The ad reads: “Congratulations, Blackhawks on winning the Cup. We’ll look for the bowl to match.” Rex Ryan’s cave should be [...]

Bears Reserve Parking For Sober Fans A.K.A. Weirdoooos

The Bears are setting aside about 100 parking spaces outside Soldier Field specifically for family-friendly tailgating, or what I like to call “utter ridiculousness.” Do you know why everybody gets shitfaced while tailgating? Because it costs a staggering $460 for a 10-game parking pass, that’s why. But, I do hope you’ll enjoy your $11.50-per-person fee [...]

Predicting Madden 11’s Chicago Bears Player Ratings

Madden ratings: they do more than just maintain order in this sometimes crazy, mixed up hierarchical NFL. They give us all another reason to be really immature. “Dude, have you seen Hester’s awareness rating? He is SO gonna make Al Harris ball up into the fetal position!!” For that, I can’t wait another week or [...]
