NightLink: A Deviation from the Standard Norm

by ChiFan13 on Nov 17, 2009 5:00 PM CST in NightLink Comment 14 comments

Usually, the NightLink is a pretty serious topic among us writers; we want to make sure that we have good Bears information up here. Never fear, WCG'ers, I'm here to break up the monotony.

1st order of business: New changes to WCG

As of around 4 PM today, Dane nominated me as the Official WCG Body Language Coach. If anyone has any qualms with any Bears players, coaches, or front-office managers, please let me know and I'll give 'em a call and coach em up. With fire and passion.

2nd order of business: Jay Cutler and Diabetes

If you haven't checked this out yet, please do. Al from the North Side called Boers and Bernstein this afternoon and berated the two about Cutler's diabetes. They calmly (as much as they could) tried to talk to the man, but it was a struggle. Absolutely hilarious, and for the record, Gesiakob, I thought of you. Click this link, download the 2-3 PM hour of B&B, and start it at 13:47. It goes on for a good seven minutes, but it's totally worth it. Trust me, you'll thank me later.

3rd order of business: Pro Bowl Voters not showing up for the Bears

The Sun-Times brings us this piece. Apparently, us Bears fans aren't showing enough fire and passion in the Pro Bowl voting, so get on it. (For the record, I'm only voting for Lance Briggs).

4th order of business: Brett's Groin

And, just to add a nice cherry on this post, here's Brad Childress talking about Brett Favre's groin. Happy Tuesday!

Mobile reply fail.

And I was just thinking about the lack of a preview button when posting this way.

Nice ChiFan13............

Thanks for the good laugh. I really do hope I’m not being lumped in with Al from the North Side on my view that Cutler’s poor play at Night could be atributted to his diabetes. Obviously Al is a crack pot or they would not feature him on the show. I really do Hope Cutler proves me wrong Sunday Night. I will especially be watching his performance in the second half of the game.

Well

I am to a point. Al is just batshiat crazy, and you’re not to that point yet. As Dane’s post showed, Cutler and the Bears’ medical staff is constantly monitoring his blood sugar level. I also hope that Cutler turns it around. However, I just don’t want us to start nitpicking at every little single thing.

And per your post below, Robbie Gould is also deserving of a nomination.

I Also Second The Notion Briggs Is The Only Player Worth Pro Bowl Consideration.

And maybe Robbie Gould.

Don't forget Brad Maynard.

He has to be close to the top of the league with punts inside the 20. I’m always afraid I sound sarcastic when I nominate our punter because I’m truly (sadly) serious. It reminds me of a line from the Simpsons, “There are too many letters in the alphabet, please remove 3. I am not a crackpot.” – Grandpa Simpson. " Brad Maynard for Bears MVP. (Co-MVP with Pat Mannely and a tip o’ the cap to ditkavsworld). I am not a crackpot." – Just Dave

If you can't laugh at yourself you must not be very funny.
