Looks like Walter will take the title, but 3rd place is still up in the air.
Ditka vs Butkus
Rank the eilite 8 (Sayers, Urlacher, Singletary, Dent) here.
Nice clip!!!
A great way to start the day!

Da Coach talks about it here (starting at 3:40) – “Marshall was… (shakes head)… man, was he… I can still see the lick he put on Joe Ferguson of Detroit, I’d never seen anything like it. I thought he’d killed him.”

Would Bulger be content as a back up?

I doubt it
But as Kev said he might not have much choice. He’s made of glass and only had 1 good season post Martz. Could be a nice veteran presence. I think the Cards will look at him if they aren’t content with Leinhart or Anderson. I think the Rams are screwing up taking a QB over Suh or McCoy. QB is such a crapshoot and either Claussen or Bradford really impresses me to the point where I’m like “He’s going to be good right away and for a long time.”

Stafford really didn't strike me that way coming out
But he seemed to have a decent year for a rookie last year. Like you said, it’s a crapshoot.
Chevelle and Three Days Grace??? Fuc*ing AWESOME!!!
lol
How would you like to be Eric Hipple, coming into that game, right after seeing what happened to the guy you’re replacing? :)
If that play happened today...
just how much of a penalty would be levied against the bears and how big of a fine would Marshall get for lowering his head to lead with his helmet and roughing the passes? I love the hit, just a shame that the NFL has made the game so soft. I understand why they did, player safety and carreer longevity, but I still love watching old games to see the insane hits and punishment delivered and received.
AB: "Shoot, over the last four, five years I have been so close to having the magical number everyone looks for as far as sacks (10)."
Huh? Wasn’t he a 5-6 a year guy? You’re still the best DE on the market right now AB, no need to get loose with the definition of “close”.
A lot closer than Mark Anderson has been recently
Chuck Norris once met Dick Butkus and had a very odd feeling come over him. Chuck later realized it was fear

But not as close as a 7 sack a year guy :P
And yes, Anderson’s stunk it up. But he’s one of the apples of Lovie’s eye.
Brown did overstep a little bit
but he’s been consistently closer to 10 sacks a year, than anyone else on the Bears…is prolly what he meant to say

That was awesome. Lol.
I’m also surprised at how quickly Perry was going, especially at his size. You can tell he wasn’t just big – he was in shape.
"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
He had a pretty good vertical leap, I seem to recall.
"F*** everybody outside of Halas Hall. BEARDOWN" - WavyGravy
"44 years of football history and nothing to show for it. I wish I wasn’t banned at the Norseman.." - tfrabotta
And then there was this goalline leap (starts at 4:10) which nobody was going to stop and could have caused a fatality if anyone had been under him when he landed, and a 50yd fumble return (watch from 0:49) which rivals Keith Traylor’s legendary interception return :-D

Tremendous video clip
it was great to hear Johnny Morris doing the commentary. For those of you who are old enough to remember, the old “Mike Ditka Show” with Johnny and Jeannie Morris were hilarious to watch. Johnny and Mike used to go at it all the time because they were old friends from their playing days. Johnny was probably the only sportscaster who would never take any crap from Da Coach. That show was the basis for a lot of the material for the SNL Super Fans skits. Classic Bears memories.
That was an awesome hit by Wilbur!
I wonder how much he’d be fined for that hit in today’s game.

and Joe Buck's commentary would be vomit inducing
" That’s just disgusting, there’s no place in today’s NFL for that kind of recklessness. How am I going to perform felatio on quarterbacks if they’re unconscious. Truly a revolting display from the classless Bears."

Perform fellatio...
You’re quite the cunning linguist!
If you can't laugh at yourself you must not be very funny.
Thats what she said....
er wait what…..

I think the Saints are a good fit for Alex Brown
I’m confident he’d do well there.
And thanks Kev for the heads up, regarding the Canal Street Chronicles.
Kinda neat how they used our comments.
Yeah.
I thought people would be interested to know some other people read their words.
