Bears Still Third Best In Division

Julius Peppers

I’ll be honest, I like to laugh at the Chicago Bears, whether they’re mortgaging their future to acquire Jay Cutler, pretending they have serviceable wide receivers or completely bungling their search for an offensive coordinator. Under general manager Jerry Angelo, the Bears are funny. And yes, I mean funny like a clown. So, the Bears [...]

No One Wants to Coach in Chicago

Lovie Smith

We’re Idiots, But The Bears Still Suck

Daunte Culpepper

First, news from the scrap heap. Word out of Green Bay is the Packers brought in Daunte for a visit today. Yes, that Daunte. Culpepper – the guy who couldn’t hold on to a job in Miami OR Oakland, and was once, when he was still worth a shit, the leader of the hated Minnesota [...]
