    A Conversation With the Gold Rush: Bears and Niners - (08/19)

    Recently, fellow MVN writer Samuel Lam and I decided to ask each other a few questions about our respective teams.  The Bears play the Niners this Thursday, and I decided to ask Sam a few things about his boys from the west. 1) With O?Sullivan starting against the Bears, are there thoughts of Alex Smith being a bust?  - [...]

    2008 Training Camp Opens - (07/23)

    OK, I have to get these two things off of my chest... Devin Hester is not a Number One Wide Receiver AND Chris Williams signing and getting into camp ON TIME is the lead story of the opening day of camp in Bourbonnais. Now for some more thoughts... I heard from Hub Arkush that Devin Hester was offered a contract that would make him the highest paid Return Specialist ever. He went on to say that it also includes an escalator clause that would pay him more if he produces as a wide receiver. Given that information, I am 100% on the Bears side of this little disagreement. If that is the case, then every day that Devin Hester holds out, I would decrease the offer and not increase it. Because if Mr. Hester is ever going to be a true #1 WR, he needs to learn the position - he has not been anything close to being a WR, but just a gimmick on offense and the worst thing that the Bears ever did was to complete a long touchdown pass to him from Brian Griese because that is the only clip that I have heard on the radio today. I did not hear any talk about how many times he was out of position as a wide receiver and how many times he ran the incorrect route, or how many times he was caught for a loss behind the line of scrimmage on a reverse... Devin Hester should use his God-given speed and sprint to sign the deal that the Bears have offered him. The Bears are not using good judgement if they capitulate and pay him as a wide receiver because he has not proven in college or the NFL that he can be relied upon to be a real WR. Back to the real story... Chris Williams signed on time! That is the best news so far out of camp... I knew that somehow he would be in on time. Very, very good news and congrats to Ted Phillips and Jerry Angelo for getting that accomplished. I now have some hope for the OLine this year... The Marty Booker that I remember can catch the football. That is what I like in a wide receiver - good hands. Now this is a weapon on offense, he is not flashy, never has been and he is not on the time to light up the world. But if he can catch all of the routine passes that Moose Muhammad did not catch, than we are worlds better with him than with Moose. Mike Brown healthy means that this defense will be good again. Mike Brown hurt again means a shaky defense. Alex Brown is the starter on the Right Side of the defensive line and not Mark Anderson. I like Mark Anderson a lot, but Alex Brown makes the run defense much, much better. That's all for now. - Slim Tim.

    Forte Signs... - (07/02)

    So, just one day after posting that the Bear had signed 10 out of their 12 draft picks, the Bears up the ante and sign Matt Forte, their 2nd round pick. Congrats, I have much higher hopes for this Bears running back now that he will be in camp when it opens. Nice work Teddy Phillips and Jerry Angelo!!! - Slim Tim

    Three more draft picks reach contract agreements - Chicago Bears - (07/01)

    I have to share this news with y'all... best news from the draft thus far... The Bears have now signed or agreed to terms with 10 of their 12 players chosen in this year?s draft, the most in the NFL. To date, 67 picks from the 2008 NFL draft have signed or agreed to terms with their respective teams. Slim Tim is very happy. I like to see the guys in camp without holdout.

    Last Updated: Monday, 10-06-08 10:36 pm PDT

    Bears Team Report (Yahoo! Sports) - (08/25)

    Coach Lovie Smith named Kyle Orton his starting quarterback to give Orton a few weeks to prepare for the regular-season opener, and he responded with a strong effort against San Francisco on Thursday. He completed 10 of 17 passes for 147 yards, two touchdowns and an interception. He finished with a 126.3 passer rating. Meanwhile, Grossman turned in his second consecutive lackluster performance, completing 1 of 4 passes for six yards. Granted, Grossman was hampered by poor offensive line play in the second preseason game, but he managed just 74 yards while hitting 9 of 15 passes and finished with a 44.9 passer rating as he failed to lead the offense past midfield in five possessions.

    Bears LB Wilson carted off field with broken arm (AP) - (08/21)

    Chicago Bears backup linebacker Rod Wilson left the field on a cart with a broken right forearm in the third quarter against the San Francisco 49ers on Thursday night. Wilson appeared to come up limping after a running play along the right side with 4:16 left in the quarter. But the Bears said he hurt his arm.

    All-Pro guard, Upshaw was craftier as union boss (AP) - (08/21)

    Gene Upshaw was common sense writ extra large. Most men that big usually roll over people to get what they want. What made Upshaw an All-Pro guard in his playing days, and then the right man for the union job for the past quarter-century, is that he understood it was better sometimes to go around them.

    49ers still mulling quarterback options (AP) - (08/20)

    Kyle Orton has a starting job and J.T. O'Sullivan will try to lock one up, too. While Chicago Bears coach Lovie Smith declared Orton the winner in the race with Rex Grossman, San Francisco 49ers coach Mike Nolan wasn't quite ready to say O'Sullivan is the regular-season starter. Sure, he will take the first snaps at Soldier Field on Thursday night, but Nolan stopped short of declaring the...

The 14th overall pick, Williams was expected to start at left tackle, but those plans went awry when he left the Bears' second practice because of stiffness.

    Chiefs' Johnson, Croyle sharp in win over Bears (AP) - (08/07)

    Larry Johnson was having so much fun he didn't want to leave the field. Considering how much time he missed, who could blame him? Johnson showed glimpses of his old self, and Brodie Croyle hinted at what might be. Back from a broken foot, Johnson ran for a touchdown on the opening drive and Croyle made the most of limited time to lead the Kansas City Chiefs to a 24-20 victory over the Chicago Bears...

    Some Bears fans say tailgating rule is a turnover (AP) - (08/07)

    As far as some fans are concerned, the Chicago Bears just committed one big fumble. New tailgating rules are in place and they don't understand why. Under a new policy that started with Thursday's preseason game against the Kansas City Chiefs, tailgaters without a ticket can no longer stay in the Soldier Field parking lots during games.
