PrintWindy City Gridiron prides itself on being the best Bears blog on the internet, and we are continuing to see outstanding growth in our numbers.
With that, we are currently looking to add to our already awesome staff of writers. Are you someone who would be interested in joining our crew? Here's what we are looking for:
- Someone who has a good grasp of the written English language.
- Someone who can generate fresh ideas for posts... Bears-related of course!
- Someone who is open-minded, and who has time to write an article per week.
- Someone who participates in the community, and can interact with members in the comments section.
If this sounds like something that you might be interested in, shoot me an email and let's see what we can work out. The success of this blog is directly attributed to user-generated content, so we want to continue to look at who we have and what we can do.
Looking forward to hearing from you!

I've got some ideas for posts. How about
1) Should we get a veteran receiver?
2) Are our coaches good?
3) Is the cover 2 any good?
4) Should we get Mike Vick next year?
5) Should we use the wildcat more?
6) Should we trade our bad players for other teams good players?
Do I have the job GB/Dane?

You didn't mention Matt Jones specifically.
So, no.
You are all gentlemen (and ladies) and good judges of cheap whiskey.
That's cause there's still Marvin to consider as well.
Also, my “trade” posts would angrily reflect on why we didn’t trade for certain players.

LOL!
Past tense, hind-sighted posts? You’re hired!

Outstanding! I assume the pay and benefits are good, so I went ahead and quit my job.
I’m researching my first post as we speak, trying to decide which team will trade us their best linemen or corner for Omiyale and Rashied. Since Philly is coming to town anyways, maybe they’ll give us Assante Samuel. Or we could sign Usain Bolt and trade him to the Raiders for Asomugha.

Amazing is...
this entire string of posts.

Glad to hear it.
We’ll see you at the office, located at 221B Baker Street, London, England.
I like the idea of your posts, but I think to start with, you should do something a little more standard. Like, how you already know everything Ron Turner is going to do ahead of time, because you are smarter than an NFL coach.
Or, how we should fire all of our coaches right now, and play all of our backups. And don’t forget to include some conspiracy theories along the way.

Thank you Watson,
but doesn’t that seem a bit… elementary? (insert rimshot here)
"The time has come to get deeply into Football. It is the only thing we have left that ain't fixed." - HST
wait
teams can trade their bad players for other teams good players
well then, all the seasons problems have been fixed
So does that mean we can trade Wolfe?
Oh no he didn’t!

I already said okay to that.

Never noticed that before.
Although Andy Reid has a much scarier mustache.

I’ll never forget the last time the Bears were opening up a can of whup ass on the Eagles and the camera kept cutting to Reid on the sidelines and I thought he was going to blow a gasket and stroke out right then and there.

I didn't know if he was like Billy Mays and still had commercials going
Most ironic thing happened when he died. I read online that he died, and the next commercial was for Oxy Clean.
I'M A MAN! I'M 23!
Billy Mays' family
I can’t imagine what kind of grieving process they had, but certainly the royalties can’t hurt.

Mild interest cause I'm not great with deadlines :-}
How about some kind of retro blog reminiscing about Bear teams of old? A comprehensive look at each decade of Bear football every week or two.

I'd consider it...
… but I’m not knowledgeable enough about the game to generate a post… or know what to talk about… lol. Maybe I can be an official spell-checker? LOL. :P

I'd like to nominate angryandy
cause he writes good posts so if he has the time i thinkk he culd be a good writer for the site and make good posts more than now which if you add to the fact that it makes things better we would get more trafic.

I'd like to nominate Amishbear
Amish can fill up a page better than Stephen King and Leo Tolstoy combined and he is a rabid Bears fan!
If you get me, you get one liners (and beaucoup cutting and pasting).

I'd like to nominate someone as our nonverbal communication expert
Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks all for your participation!

What's LSF?
I don’t think this is an updated version… that’s not how you make a ‘T’ (nor ‘H’ I believe) in American Sign Language…lol. But then again, maybe that has something to do with whatever LSF is… :]

This is the French sign language.
I have been wondering if anyone would notice that…

Ah. Sweet.
Glad I was able to catch it then. :]

I don't think we fit the bill...
I’m speculating here, but I don’t think we’re quite the non-verbal communication coaches that they’re looking for. Unless our pics can cause Cutler to smile on the sidelines after getting drilled into the ground on four consecutive plays!

I hope Jay Cutler makes a liar out of me and has a QB rating over 52.0 Sunday Night. Because the numbers don’t lie Gentlemen.
Lol I like the low expectations.
QB rating over 52.0 Sunday

That's His QB Rating
In 3 Night games played this Year. Should I elevate it against the Philadelphia Defense?
I was shooting for a blend of the names.
Rather than just getting rid of the world and making it a fight between the powers of good and, well, can’t really can him evil, let’s go with petulant, no, no too Cutler like, ummm impish? No too light hearted, hmmm maybe…..
If you can't laugh at yourself you must not be very funny.
I don't even know how to respond so I'll try this.
LOL

Did you guys hire anyone yet?
I would be interested in what kind of content the staff wants to see implemented.

What’s your interest?

I would say moderate
I suppose it would depend on the content, and what my interest level in that content is.
How about some kind of retro blog reminiscing about Bear teams of old? A comprehensive look at each decade of Bear football every week or two.
or

This is from my above post. These were kind of spur of the moment ideas though.
