...wishing a certain WCG-staffer a Happy Birthday!

Some clown thinks he's got the Bears all figures out.

Score one for the good guys... sports blog makes it big time.

OJ Atogwe is a free man.  How long will he be on the market? 

I really couldn't come up with a tagline for this... just, wow.

Here's a good time-waster if you are a nerd like me:  Build your own solar system

And lastly, a very, very special birthday shoutout to HoneyBear.  Thank you for all that you bring to WCG... we hope this is your best year yet!

Happy Birthday child.
Thanks! I’m an oldie now – 23!

Puke! Unless you’re kidding in which case, uh, Happy Birthday again. Otherwise, I now feel elderly and/or ancient. Thanks for dragging me down. ;) May you stay 23 forever…. (I’ve been 39ish for quite awhile…)

If you can't laugh at yourself you must not be very funny.

Happy Birthday to you too!

Even though it’s a few days late! I left for St. Louis on the 3rd, so I didn’t get a chance to respond! :] Hope your day was great! :]

I hope

this doesn’t happen for the Princelet’s.

I'm not that worried about Atogwe, wherever he goes.

He’s a solid player, and I would’ve liked him in Chicago, but if he goes somewhere else, I’m not going to naysay the entire season.

Solid, quality, if unspectacular, in my opinion.

If I did what I love for a living, what would I do in my free time?

also

Atogwe isn’t getting any younger. 28 and coming off an injury, versus the young and talented Major Wright.

we can spin this anyway we want now

I believe that the rules of the NFL state that the preseason is all about spinning it however you want to.

And it always works on me. Manning and Harris are our safeties. Wright and Harris are our safeties. Manning will be put in one place and not moved. Tice was the top free agent acquisition. No veteran QB required.

More kool-aid please!

Regarding the Bitish biker. I've found that as I get closer to the end of my time on earth the less willing I am to engage in risky behavior.

That dude definitely has a death wish. Just getting injured at that age takes forever to recover, if you can recover at all.

Who exactly turned them down?
They were the big bidder for Carolina’s Julius Peppers and after several other free agents turned them down.

I don't think so

If that’s the case he should have started a new sentence and not referenced coordinators in the same sentence he referenced a player.

That's the only conclusion I could come up with...

Everyone they brought in player wise they signed..

i can't wait

for that fool carcillo (i think that’s his name) to lay out more of his teammates. i like that the hitting has intensified and will likely get really entertaining tonight and onward.

by reefermadness3 on Jun 2, 2010 10:01 AM CDT up reply actions  

Not only did he hit his teammate…..He didn’t even check if Carter was ok!!!!!!!!

I actually saw that play.

I haven’t watched a lick of hockey in my life but I saw that play. I watched quite a bit of game 2. I don’t understand hockey but I enjoying the game.

I'm in the same boat as you my friend........

Regular season hockey just boars me to death!! Playoff hockey is just the complete opposite!! I can’t get enough of it…..This years playoffs, is the only hockey I ever watched………..

No sane man would argue with that.

You could be a part of the den everyday.

I’m sure Dane would let you do them every morning…
