Somer, YOUNG TE, Clark is like old in NFL years, been around for like 6-7 years I think, he was Griese's guy when he was in Denver.

Jones can catch the ball, Benson, it remains to be seen, Benson did get the ball some last night and I actually think he is going to take over the roll a little bit as long as he doesn't fumble. I was hoping to get him in the endzone last night because it would have helped him to hear the fans cheering for him. VERY sensitive in the head I think

Yes we did fight about this last year and I told you that they were in a terrible division that they would win and that they will make the Playoffs, but be bounced early. Remember that?

It's fine to be a fan and even somewhat of a blowhard, but you are talking nonsense...

Rex Grossman LOL. Its only a matter of time before he does something stupid - he always does. He didnt wake up one morning and decide not to suck anymore. His old qualities will catch up to him...

Your schedule is a joke, thats for sure. Compare it to what Cincy and Pittsburgh are playing for a chuckle. But, thats not Chicagos problem...they got luck. We can chalk up the game at New England to a loss, as well as the one at New York. Will probably go 12-4 or 13-3 but that dont mean **** in the playoffs

LOL!!
I'm sorry but I'm going to have to steal that line and use it!!
Everyone thought Hasselbeack woke up and decided that, until he got to play a game without Alexander last night, and guess what, he must have decided when he woke up that he sucked again.
Pete Carroll was the same way. I guess when he decided to go for it on 4th and 1 AND without Bush in the backfield, and then decided to call a panicked timeout that he desperately needed before a two point attempt last year in the championship game, that he must have wokenup and decided he still sucked also!!!!!
You gotta love bandwagon guys.

I remember that, but we had KYLE ORTON as our QB and couldn't move the ball, and we got smoked by ONE GUY.....not worried about it this year

Since Grossman moves slow, if I were a Bears fan I'd be REAL worried about EXACTLY that. Those slow guys are tough to get through a season inone piece, especially the ones who have been injury prone.

Yo we have Greise who is a machine in this offense, best backup in all of football. i am FAR from worried about this season, even if Grossman goes down, we are hooked up, and we have a 10 game winner in his ROOKIE year 3rd string, loaded from all angles.

where we would be screwed is at WR, if Muhammed or Berrian go down, we are in trouble

Indy's defense is suspect because we have 4 starters out injured, our secondary is down to 2nd and 3rd string guys. Our defense will be fine when we get healthy.

Here I go again using we like I am a member of the team I like to consider myself part of the team and use we. I am the 12th man screaming and yelling at the tv. Wait till I go to my first game. Face painted, going crazy in the stands hi fiving everyone.

Even with Alexander too be continued, boss is right here
As usual a very evenly matched league. This is what makes the NFL so great. But I don't think Chicago is even the best D. That goes to Baltimore who, after dominating weak teams, showed they could control a potent O when they beat San Diego. Man for man I'd take Baltimore over Chicago.

Both teams need their QB to stay healthy though. Gotta be exciting for you to have a reasonably good quarterback in Chicago. I think the last one was Sid Luckman.

Just remember ONE thing in the N F L.... any team can look like a champion one week...and then get knocked off the mountain the next week.... Heck everyone said.. the bengals are this. and the pats walk in there.. and take no names....The Dolphins of 2005 winners of the last six games... look like the worst team ...get beat by the team who DRAFTED FIRST in 2006 ? Its a shame that most teams get to be 8 -8.. and the few better and the few worse...
And as they say in the Black Hole..... >>Goooooo Raiders !!!!

I would never wear a Jersey, just not me. I have a Bengals hat and some long sleeve T shirts with Bengals logos on them...

I am not on the Team, so why should I wear a Jersey?

I am on the team, I am a fan, and while I PAY and don't get paid, I still feel a part of it. Alot of it is because of the players involved, alot of players are real cool dudes...Two stories, 1 revelavant 1 not...

1) Nathan Vasher was in his 2nd year, and we were at Bears Draft Day at Solider Field, alot of the players come out and have a good time. I am rocking the Salamm jersey and Vasher comes up to me and my friends and was like "tight jersey" and I turn around and show him Salamm and seriously, it was the only black dude I have seen turn red, it was so hilarious. Somebody comedy, I think David Terrell, was all over him about it.....

2) off this subject...You know how Seattle supposedly has a 12th man and yadda yadda. Well I guess the NFL makes Seattle #12 jerseys with the word fan on the back, biggest waste of money I have ever seen but BESIDES THAT, After the Bears scored their last touchdown Sunday night, there was a SEATTLE FAN with THAT JERSEY clapping to 'Bear Down'(a cultitic song they play after we score points). I was all over him like a fly on ****. DUDE WAS ACTUALLY CLAPPING FOR THE BEARS WITH A SEAHAWKS jersey on. I had more respect for these two Seattle clowns that started talking **** when up 3-0 and then shut up and took a verbal whoopping after they got smoked.

You are not on the Team, you don't have the talent to make the Team and you don't put in the blood, sweat, and tears that they do... I don't either, no big deal, only so many people are talented enough to play in the NFL. I am a fan of the Bengals, but I am not on the Bengals. I really don't understand the mentality that you are part of the Team by wearing a Jersey....
