The Bears Den - 4/6/09

Sorry for the all-Cutler Den again. All links pop.

WCG Note: I just wanted to throw a quick reminder that with all the Cutler activity a lot of Fan Posts and Front Page Posts were buried. Be sure to go back and check out what you might have missed.

In The Den

On the official Bears site, Larry Mayer runs down what Bears players were present during Cutler's presser. His story also has some interesting tidbits from Chris Williams, Cutler's teammate at Vanderbilt.

David Haugh discusses Cutler's grittiness, from diabetes to off-the-field demeanor.

Rick Morrissey isn't thrilled about the Cutler trade. Surprised? I'm not.

Jay Cutler and Greg Olsen are already on the same page. Can't wait to see that combo next year.

Everyone likes to talk about how Jay Cutler is a whiny baby. Why isn't anyone saying the same thing about Denver owner Pat Bowlen?

An AFC scout offers his take on Cutler. It's a ringing endorsement, if you ask me.

Matt Forte is excited about Cutler, but won't be at the voluntary off-season workouts starting today. Don't worry, he has an excuse: He's finishing his degree at Tulane.

Mike Mulligan offers another ringing endorsement of Cutler.

Neil Hayes writes about a topic that hasn't been discussed yet: It's make or break time for Ron Turner.

In order to make sure we know the real Jay Cutler, Carol Slezak interviewed some people that live in Santa Claus, Indiana (Cutler's hometown).

David Haugh talked to Jack Cutler, who attempted to set the record straight regarding the past between his son and Ron Turner.

In The Vicinity of The Den

Do we really need an excuse to post another picture of the Chicago Bliss?

Nowhere Near The Den

A judge rejected Michael Vick's plan to overcome bankruptcy.

Apparently, Gisele Bundchen's security shot at two cameramen as they were leaving Tom and Gisele's wedding. Brady's agent has no knowledge of the incident (Helmet tip: ifuwannacrownem)

PFT's take of the Titans' alleging the Redskins tampered with Albert Haynesworth.

Ocho Cinco will lose $250,000 for not showing up to voluntary workouts.

Everyone who is saying Cutler isn't a leader

and that he’s whiny, etc. They do realize he was a captain in Denver right? You have to demonstrate some type of leadership skills right? And Chris Williams said Cutler knows how to kick people in the ass to get ‘em going, so that was all just bitter Broncos fans saying he’s a bad leader, right?

mostly

or people in the media trying to paint him with a single brush because of one incident.

how its all cutler’s fault like King says is beyond me. both sides messed it up equally in my mind.

The shortest distance between two points is under construction.

Wow

Brady’s more gangsta than Pacman, Plax, and Ray Lewis. I’d never thought I’d see the day. Here’s more to the story

Hopeful

“When [coach Lovie Smith] called me he was like, ‘We got you [and] we had to give up a little bit,’ " Cutler said. “I was like, ’What’s a little bit?’ He told me [two first-round picks, a third-rounder and Kyle Orton] and I was like, that sounds like a lot to me. That tells me they have a lot of faith in me, they believe in me … and I’m not going to let them down.”

This makes me even more hopeful about this trade. I’m still a tiny bit nervous because we gave so much, but the more I hear about him, the better it sounds. I’m just looking forward to seeing him prove himself in some games and I’ll be convinced. :) Plus, Matt Forte likes him, so I can’t ignore that!

Also, Vick sounds like he’s changed, but do you really think so? I mean, it’s easy to say that, but then go back to your old ways. What do you all think?

"A lot of fans were drawn to me because they knew that whatever the score was, I was going to run as hard as I could on every play. You don't have that now, you have guys waiting for next week or even next year." - Walter Payton

Vick is not going to change

He will put on an act to try and convince the commisioner he is remorseful but I think Roger has his number.

Who would've thought?

Gisele the gangster. The old golden boy’s image is being tarnished more and more because of her. I can see this marriage ending within the year now.

You think

he cares about his image when he gets to go home Giselle Bundchen? I wouldn’t.

The bliss need to come to Denver and play!

If they get disgruntled over ownership problems, I’d be happy to acquire them.
