Tweets from Day 5 of Camp

As before, I'm following: Brad Biggs, Jeff Dickerson, Greg Olsen, Matt Forte, Jay CutlerVaughn McClure, David Haugh, Fontel Mines, Dez Clark, Tommie Harris and ChicagoBears.com. All links *should* open in a new window!

Be advised: the Cutler link may or may not be legit. Time will tell at this point!

I assume you mean the greatest corner to ever play in the history of football, who just signed a contract for an ungodly amount of cash. I know he’s good, but damn are people pumping him up lately.

I don't deny that he's good.

But some people have been talking as of late like he’s the greatest to ever step on the field. I just get tired of the hyperbole. Cromartie has got the potential, but I want to see it for a few more seasons. I’d prefer to not see it against the Bears, however.

Seems to be clearing up.

They’ve lifted a couple of the quarantined units, so hopefully that means it’s getting better. I’m still eating the hell out of some vitamins and orange juice though, just to make sure. Hopefully I’ll make it through unscathed.
