Top of the draft

It seems as if almost everyone is agreeing there’s not top talent in this year’s draft. Many of the top-15 picks will be overpaid, will underperform, and will be considered colossal busts. By no means are the Bears in a bad position when they pick at #49, and in later rounds.

Jared Allen seems like a Douche

Hell of a football player but I don’t like him. Maybe he’s one of those “You love him if he’s on your team” guys but he just rubs me the wrong way.

I am glad we pick later in the second round, a lot of the receivers seem to have character and other concerns. Let other teams pick those guys and pay them more money.

Nah, dude

everytime I see this guy, I can’t help but to laugh at his antics. He’s the Larry the Cable Guy of the NFL.

Screw Jared Allen! I wish him nothing but pain and misery.

We now have a Jared Allen neutralizer. Orlando Pace. Take him to the wood shed Orlando.

I don't know, man

I sure do hope we play the Vikes while the williams wall is suspended. might let Pace focus soley on Allen.

They would just whine

and say it’s not fair. I want to thrash them when they are at full strength. Then there will be know doubt who the best is.

It is definately going to be a much better match up.

Meh

I’d rather get off easy than to take a chance. they are division rivals. not the type of teams you want to play at full strength

See, that's the difference between you and me.

Look, if you want to be the best you have to beat the best. I want my due recognition, I deserve this, I’ve handed my life over for the glory of the Bears. I want their best and then, I want them to bow down, where they belong, at our feet.

I agree.

While it is a nice idea to get to face the Vikes without the Wiliiamses, I would prefer to just duke it out when we are both at our best. Leave no questions out there.

That's what I'm talking about!

We now have some weapons to counter with. I can’t freaking wait! Jared Allen and Orlando Pace is going to be a classic battle. I’m so damn excited, I feel like beating my f**king key board to death!

I’m so ready to do battle right now! The Vikings, the Packers, anybody. You know what I’m saying? I really want to see this Jared Allen character get slapped around by the big man, Orlando. Just man handled, beat up, get off my QB punk!

Regardless of how much of a tool he is...

JAllen is a monster. Hopefully, Pace still has enough left in the tank to at least slow him down. I dislike that damn Vikes defense as much as anyone… but they are bad to the bone, and I respect them. But, we are setting ourselves up nicely to push for the North title. There will be some bumps and bruises along the way, but I have no doubt that we will be able to make it happen this season.

don't be so sure of that

not with the always dangerous Lions in our division. the NFC north goes through them!

they seem to always play the Bears tough.

I'm just really hating on JA.

Last year he pounded us. And that stupid rope tie, cow tie thing that he does. I would like to see him go sackless against us, maybe go limping off the field late in the game, battered and bruised, never to return. Pace taunting him on the sideline, Cutler laughing at him, pointing, pounding his chest.

Well...

a win is a win to me. I’ll take it as easy as i can get it. even without the williams wall, we still gotta contend with BB, AP, JA, T-Jack (he looked Like pre T.O. D-Nabb towards the end of the season)

I miss alcohol

Word of advice, don’t ever, EVER, Mix Vodka and Sunny D. I almost killed two of my best friends like that.

by ifuwannacrownem on Apr 12, 2009 12:55 PM CDT up reply actions  

Why

Is Sunny D bad for human consumtion.

by luckie815 on Apr 12, 2009 1:14 PM CDT up reply actions  

I don't know what mixing those two do to the human body

but I had to take them both to the hospital after they threw up for three hours straight.
