What To Do With $17.67 Million?

Nfc_championship_philadelphia_b274
Man, $17.67 million dollars. That’s like, 17 quadrillion pennies or something. You could make a money vault and swim in it like Mr. McDuck did in Duck Tales in the days of yore. OR, if you’re the Bears you can throw it all at say………..Anquan Boldin. I realize...

Why Your Team Sucks

Every other NFC team that isn’t the Chicago Bears sucks. No other team will hoist the NFC Championship trophy in 2009, or even send one player to the Pro Bowl. In another world, this would go without saying, but since this is not another world, “Why Your Team Sucks”...

Johnny Knox Is The New Bernard Berrian

They’re Already Starting To Turn Against Rex In Texas

That didn’t take long, now did it? He hasn’t even fumbled a snap under center, thrown an ill-timed pick six, or impregnated your sister yet, and the Sex Cannon is already being received less-than-positively in Houston. Just wait until Matt Schaub destroys a lateral meniscus.

Just Keep Them Away From Your Collarbones, Charles Rogers

Atlanta_falcons_vs_710b
Hey, ladies and gentleman! Guess which former collar bone-deficient Detroit Lion’s name is resurfacing? If you said Charles Rogers, take yourself a Vicodin and pat yourself on the back… just not too hard. Collarbone, remember? What’s more unfathomable: The Bears bring...

Bears Eyeing a ‘Austin to Chicago Pipeline’

Wasn't a huge fan of this when I saw Texas at the top of the list, and personally I think they would do better going after SEC schools (Alabama, Florida and LSU come to mind). But I didn't research this. Overall I think at the very least, it makes for interesting discussion.

Bears Eyeing a ‘Austin to Chicago Pipeline’

Kansas_city_chiefs_8d1d
….or they should. Call me crazy but as recently as a few years back it seemed like every fourth player on the Bears roster was from Oklahoma (Tommie Harris, Marc Bradley, Dusty Dvoracek, J.D. Runnels and now Juaquin Iglesias). Along with those Sooners, the Bears have tapped into...

Brian Urlacher Field: A Field Named After Brian Urlacher

Bears_v_browns_6ddd
The University of New Mexico has named their football practice facility after the legendary former Lobo Brian Urlacher, shown here just pre-STD. The decision to appropriately christen Brian Urlacher Field was spurred by “Urlacher’s accomplishments and a recent $500,000...

Roberto Garza Hosts Youth Football Camp With All The Flair Of A PR Pro

Dallas_cowboys_v_896f
Roberto Garza is hosting a series of free youth football camps in the Rio Grande Valley; his place of origination and arguably where he first cogitated the idea of driving a large amount of elderly to receive healthcare in just one seven-passenger van. Garza speaks about the kids,...

An Open Letter To Tommie Harris

Dear Mr. 91, This city would absolutely go bonkers if were you to return to your form pre-second half of the 2006 season. It would really make everything easier on all of us Bears fanatics. We aren’t asking for much here, just a season of seeing 91 in navy and orange in the offensive...

The Bears Secondary Wants You!

Well not really, but it would appear that they should just start holding tryouts in the Chicago area. I mean I ‘played’ safety freshman year of high school, why not give me a shot? With the ‘talent’ we are currently throwing out there we might as well start handing out tryout...

Brett Favre Has Twitter, Or So It Would Seem

Green_bay_packers_797b
Hey all, I’ll be taking over for Shea for a few days while he ends his life by having his girlfriend move in with him, goes to sunny CA to visit his home boys and girls. The offseason is brutal enough for us Bears fans. We have to suffer through the “Wait ‘til next year” refrain [...]

The End Of The Devin Hester That Made You Spill Your Beer

He is already the greatest kick/punt returner to ever play the game, but the one thing that is most disappointing about the Devin Hester saga is that thanks to a franchise incapable of finding a true number one wide receiver, us fans will forever be jipped of more moments like this...

Cutler On B-Marsh: “I Think He Can Be One Of The Greatest Ever To Play”

Picimg_nfl_nov_06_a313
Brandon Marshall. Jay Cutler. Trade. Pat Bowlen. Will The Bears Sign A Wide Receiver? Okay, now that we’re fully SEO optimized: Jay Cutler obviously likes what Brandon Marshall is bringing to the table, but his ambitious compliment to the absurdly off-center wide receiver might...

… And Eric Mangini As Mike Ditka (Applause!)

Cleveland_browns_2008_26c6
Cleveland Browns fans: Reserve your Super Bowl tickets early! Defensive coordinator Rob Ryan is planning to “incorporate a version of the 46 with the Browns.” As in the Buddy Ryan-led, 1985 Bears’ 46 defense that utterly decimated opponents. Word is defensive tackle...

The Extreme Delusions Of Peter Warrick

So Peter Warrick–remember him? After tearing up the ACC and college football in general while at Florida St, Warrick got drafted by Cincinnati number four overall in 2000. He had a nice year in ‘03 but got injured and missed most of ’04, and after one season with Seattle...

What’s In A Name? Superstardom (Possibly)

I always like Iglasias when he was at Oklahoma. An old co-worker of mine went to OU and was crazy about this guy. Real pumped that the Bears were able to snag him in the draft. I dont think he'l be a stud, but I think with Culter back there, he can become a 'go-to' guy for our offense.

Matt Phillip is the newest writer at Blog Down, Chicago Bears. He brings with him a different perspective, new voice and more-than-adept topical knowledge; But, more than anything, he sits in the cubical across from my own. OK stick with me here. Juaquin Iglesias. First off….doesn’t...

UFL Takes First Step Toward Doom, Includes Adam Archuleta

Adam_archuleta_31_57be
Former Bears safety Adam Archuleta was drafted by the UFL’s Las Vegas franchise in the UFL “Premiere” Season Draft and thus will likely be en route to Sin City. You know what that means, don’t you: His Playmate wife will clearly become a stripper.

Rex Grossman, You’re Unwavering Commitment To Honesty Is Appreciated

Tennessee_titans_v_4d8c
If you hadn’t heard, Rex Grossman signed with the Houston Texans. By all accounts–okay, just his account–he’s happy in the system, just glad to compete… yada, yada, yada. But what you might find mind-boggling, as Rex admits, is how “there wasn’t a...

The Greatest Offseason Ever?

A franchise quarterback precipitously becomes available in an otherwise uneventful team offseason so, naturally, you make a trade for said quarterback and in the process, fix a 25-year old problem. Then, not one, not two, but three wide receivers with Pro Bowl talent unfathomably follow...

Did You Hear The One About Brandon Marshall To The Bears?

Much like every available quarterback became the subject of desperate pleas for pursuit pre-Cutler, every half-decent wide receiver lately–from free agent to disgruntled–has been suggested in some form as the solution to the Bears receiving woes. Add Brandon Marshall to...
