The Bears Den: May 24, 2010
...where we wonder what the Bears weakest link will be this year.
From minicamp, it appears that Peppers has been wowing everyone.
Chris Harris feeling right at home in his first camp back with the team.
Pompei takes a look at all the defensive changes from last year. Good read.
Trent Green might be on the Bears radar, but nothing seems imminent.

ESPN is not going to do as good of a job as our own MuleTrain; nonetheless, rank 'em here.
More former Bears are giving their opinions on the war of words nonesense.
Another LB who may end up being a STs standout likely to get contract.
Sounds like Olin might be coming back from his surgery much better than before.

Good to see Dent on the ESPN All-Time Bear list
I do find it humorous that Dan Hampton (whom played along side Dent) didn’t make the list, but has made the Hall of Fame.
I see Dent had 2 #1 votes
hmm…

Urlacher seems a lot more vocal
…in minicamp this year, per the sports reports I have been scanning. I think that is a good thing, assertion of a leadership role that was lacking after he went down in the first game of the season last year.

Trent "figgin" Green?
Why an aging cracked eggshell of a QB over Bulger?
Like the rest of you, I’m so over the BS “war of words” between ’Lach and the Bitter Bears of old.

Word on Twitter is
That TO is in town (no one seems to say if this is at all related to the Bears or if he is just here, I hope it’s the latter). Also the Bears have officially signed Brian Iwuh and released TE Kevin Brock. (Link)
"I was interviewing George Halas and I asked him who is the greatest running back you ever saw. And he said, 'That would be Red Grange.' And I asked him if Grange was playing today, how many yards do you think he'd gain. And he said, 'About 750, maybe 800 yards.' And I said, 'Well, 800 yards is just okay.' He sat up in his chair and he said, 'Son, you must remember one thing. Red Grange is 75 years old.' - Chris Berman

He’s going to the Bulls in a package deal with Lebron and John Calipari.

"Peppers is a guy that works hard," said defensive tackle Tommie Harris. "I mean, he practices extremely hard and plays that way. I’ve heard that a lot about guys like [Patrick] Kerney and all those other great defensive ends, Jared Allen, that practice real hard. But I never really saw it in a Pro Bowl defensive end. [Peppers] goes 110 percent every practice. You can tell why he’s the best."
See Tommie when you practice hard people respect you and good things happen. Please make a note of this.

Everytime I hear one of Tommie's comments I think he can't say anything dumber....
he always proves me wrong. If he were that reliable on the field, he would be a perennial All-Pro.
someone who tries their hardest
to earn the megamoney they are being paid to play football. not just try hard 4 out of 6 workdays either. “watch and learn tommie” is right.

Maybe all he needs is somebody like Peppers to inspire him...
What are the odds Tommie will make the pro bowl this year? Does anybody have faith in him?
Hard work fascinates Tommie. He can sit and watch it for hours.

Haha.

i like to see
mckie getting another job somewhere, but the bears are nuts even thinking trent green is a viable option at this point. i would say no too if i was him

Trent Green?
really? I mean, really? Not just from the Bears perspective, but from his as well: at his age, with his injury history, and with a nice career trajectory as a well-paid announcer….don’t see that happening.
Dude is a walking liability
He’ll get a concussion trying to put the helmet on,

Olin
I sure hope Kreutz comes back good as new or close to it. This would be a huge positive.
