I'm fairly certain the state of Virginia just got Internet access. Why? Tom Robinson is writing a story about Cutler's ego and what else he brings to the Bears.

Why

don’t we deserve a funny one-liner today? :) I’ve been a good girl ALL week! (even though it’s only Wednesday… haha).

Bear's Den

….where everyday fans wake up to the sobering reality that it’s still not football season yet.

everybody take a deep breath… and hold it!

Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgement that something else is more important than fear.

Well, spending the first 27 years of my life in Louisiana,

I can tell you to get used to things dying and turning brown in the summertime. Makes for a good tomato crop, but that’s about it.

Oh, and Northwest Arkansas (Ouachita Mtns) is a great place to do some hiking and camping during the summer. It’s hot and everything is dead, but it is gorgeous this time of year.

Yeah I've lived in NC, FL and now Miss

So I’m pretty much accepting that the grass isn’t like up north and it’s like sitting on the face of the sun hot pretty much 6 months out of the year. Haven’t been to Arkansas so I’ll have to give it a look a take a trip up that way.

Oh before I forget today offically started shrimp season in Miss, so happy shrimp day.

Ah, Panama City

If you ever get back that way, I seem to recall losing several million brain cells in that fine town. If you find them be careful, they’re minors.

nothing is better than the panama international airport...

all 4 terminals of it!!!! oh yah, what was the name of that one drink that came in a bucket with like 50 straws???

Yeah 4 gates that all depart to Atlanta

God I hated that craptastic Air Port. Did you know that the runway there was technically too short for FAA standards?

You and I have very differing opinions of that town

I learned living there that unless your on vacation it’s not all that much fun. Don’t get me wrong I killed plenty of brain cell there myself. If anybody happened to find one or two I could really use them.

Actually are opinions may not differ all that much.

I’m now in my thirties. thirteen to sixteen years ago, twas great vacation spot for me.
It’s a been there done that town for sure.

Yep the older I got the less I liked it

Spring break was a nightmare unless you were on vacation for it. The prices pretty much double for everything and then come winter time most of the night life was non existent. Then they got rid of some of the cooler local bars to build condo’s, a place called Sharkey’s was one of my favorites, they served a hollowed out watermelon with all kinds of goodness in it. I really wish i could remember more of my times there. :)

had better analysis from fans than the actual writer. I like the idea of the Bears sending Jamar Williams, and next year’s second and fifth rounder for Marshall.

Cleveland Browns Trade Brady Quinn To Broncos For Peyton Hillis, Conditional Picks

FILE - In this Sept. 4, 2009 file photo, San Francisco 49ers quarterback Shaun Hill aims a pass downfield against the San Diego Chargers during the first quarter of an NFL preseason football game in San Diego. Hill earned the starting job for the 2009 season by beating out Alex Smith, who missed last season after re-injuring his surgically repaired throwing shoulder. Head coach Mike Singletary largely chose Hill based on his play down the stretch last year: he went 5-3 over the final eight games and he also owns a 5-0 record at home in Candlestick Park.
