Players are excited Toub will return Mayer: Bears players breathed a sigh of relief when they learned that special teams coordinator Dave Toub had signed a two-year extension through 2013. 2011 Bears Defensive Highlights
If Tice leaves for Raiders, Bears are in trouble Jensen: If Tice lands the Raiders job, then Smith is back to square one — with a shrunken pool of candidates.
Giants exec Marc Ross gets his chance to impress Bears Jensen: No team has scared and tormented the Green Bay Packers more in the last few seasons than the New York Giants. And one of the keys to the Giants’ success was at Halas Hall on Wednesday to interview for the Bears’ general-manager position.
Follow WCG on Twitter: Experience the ripple effect. Or Champipple.
Bears analysis: No security at safety position Biggs: Eighth in a 10-part series.
Tice's exit creates ripple effect Rosenbloom: If Mike Tice leaves to coach the Oakland Raiders, the Bears would have all kinds of bad news.
If not Tice, then… Moon has options. Forte on possible franchise tag, Matt Bowen, more...
Pompei: Sans Tice, Bears Would Have No Offensive Identity With changes in no short supply at Halas Hall, Bears insider Dan Pompei joined The Mully and Hanley Show to break down the action.
Silverman: Earth To Bears, Bring In Explosive Tight EndSilverman: Earth To Bears, Bring In Explosive Tight End Silverman: Someone needs to get the news of the importance of the tight end to the Bears.
2011 Season Awards: Defensive MVP Hendricks: Today, we focus on the heart of the Bears: the defense. Classic Bears football features a crushing defense, and Chicago's D aimed to reach the same heights as their predecessors.
Four Downs: Will Martz coach again? The ESPN Chicago panel plays Fact or Fiction.
Former Bear Mark Anderson regains niche as sack man Biggs: It might have been the quietest 10 sacks in the NFL, but Mark Anderson doesn't care if he didn't make a lot of noise.
Giants, 49ers continue epic playoff rivalry Banks: The irony of this most unexpected pairing can't be missed. The NFC Championship Game matchup that we never saw coming -- Giants versus 49ers -- is actually one we've become very familiar with over the course of the past three decades of postseason history.
Thank you, Megan:

Nothing tops that video! that $h!t is funny.
Wouldnt it be funny if we had another DE with the last name Salters!
Very representative of Wisconsin.
"With all due respect, and I mean with ALL due respect...that idea ain't worth a velvet paintin' of a whale and a dolphin gettin' it on."
Would love to see Ross as our next GM by the way.

Ross looks like best candidate to me
smart guy, ex college star, draft expert.
I'm beginning to think so too.
At first I thought Licht from the Patriots was the best choice, but Ross is looking like the more involved and accomplished exec.

this is what makes America not so great
the fact that we find comfort in the suffering of others.

I'm not revelling in her pain... It is the whole drunk/incoherent/blubbering moron thing that I find amusing.

drunk/incoherent/blubbering young women are what passes for funny these days?
this is a real person not a cartoon character or an SNL actor.
I find it unconscionable that her friend would put her on video in such a condition.

Is this how you treat a friend?
you catch them at their drunken worst an video them.
then post that video where they can be mocked by millions.
if so your a sick puppy.

It wasnt her friend. It was her sister

is it over reacting to expect common decency from people?
what kind of person wants to see a poor silly drunk girl crying

Girl?
My guess is she is a full grown woman. Got drunk and her sister/friend thought it was funny. Which it is. Go check out the ‘Bama fan that put his junk on the drunk, passed out LSU fan’s face if you want to see something that is disgusting to do/ disgraceful/criminal.
What is the difference between this and Jimmy Kimmels videos of parents pranking their kids with horrible Christmas presents? I am a fan of those as well BTW.
WILDCARD BITCHES!!! YEEEEHHHAAAAA!!!!!
why in the world would I want to go watch any of that stuff why would anyone.

Not saying you would Ed.
Just saying there are a lot worse things out there than a drunk chick crying about her team losing.
WILDCARD BITCHES!!! YEEEEHHHAAAAA!!!!!
What are a 'commoners' preconceived notions of decency?
Actually, never mind. It’s not like everybody woke up this morning thinking ‘Hmm..I want to see a video of a poor silly crying drunk girl’. In fact when I woke up this morning, like every morning, I have two thoughts. One of them involves coffee.
While piecing together the Den I stumbled across this video. It involved a fan of our arch-rival Packers. I got a chuckle out of it and thought you and everyone else would, too.
I suppose though, and I can certainly appreciate, the deeper reality of the clip and the multiple layers of social commentary possible. I just enjoyed it on a surface level and moved on.

common decency
is the level of courtesy someone can expect from any normal person.
I suspose that today “common decency” has been exchanged for “general disrespect”"

why? because its cool for everyone to act like a teenage thug now?

Sorry Ed, that vid was frikken funny.
Commonly indecent or not. Drunk or not, this girl takes her fandom seriously. She should be recruited.
Being a meatball not only makes me delicious, but it also makes me all warm inside.

Cmon ed, we know you are old school but thats how it goes.

No, what makes America great
is that we can confuse suffering with our team losing a football game.

Good. And after puking her guts out and nursing a nasty hangover
she’ll think twice about doing it again. Never worked for me, but hey.

I'm afraid to know what a turkey packet is.

I have nothing I can possibly add to this thread
that would conceivably improve it in any discernible fashion.
Above all; keep 'em guessing, never let them lose their sense of confusion.
I know what he's talking about
theres also “ham”, “pastrami” and “salami”…none of which look any different at all..

Listening to the radio
Dickerson on ESPN 1000 mentioned that not many people were on the same page with martz Did not get along with drake and Tice
Dickerson hears mixed reports with ross and on hard he works Thinks that it might be a little jealousy
Laurence Holmes on 670 the Score states that Lovie likes Ross Might be the new favorite
"Outside of the sacks we have one of the better Offensive Lines in the NFL....."
- Jerry Angelo on the Offensive Line
Ross is the way to go.
Have a feeling they go with they guy from KC b/c he knows all of the scouts. Also have a bad feeling about Ruskell getting the job. UGH!
WILDCARD BITCHES!!! YEEEEHHHAAAAA!!!!!
WoW that
packer fan vid is depressing as hell……I almost feel bad…..ALMOST….

totally p!$$£d then blaming her sister for loss due to her sparkly nails and wrong jersey. are they ALL like that? GO GIANTS
Maybe I've Been Wrong
Maybe Lovie Smith is really a coaching genious, and mastermind ala Mike Shanahan. Another coming of St. Vincent or Bill Walsh. Maybe the Bears need to build an organization around him, with domesticated GM’s at his beck and call (like the Pats GM, or the Skins GM who are basically errand boys for coaches who know what they’re doing) instead of feral one’s who might want to change and adjust to modern times in the NFL. Ones who might kick out a few of those Bear players so content with average results and comfortable blaming those results on injuries, et al. Who might want to trade some of those players (you name em’ but tops for me are #54 and others) while they still command draft picks. One who will send Lovie packing and back to being a defensive coordinator, where he should be. No, maybe the Bears owners are right: Smith is the wave of the future. Maybe I’ve been getting it wrong since watching my first Bears team in 1959. Guess the Bears owners must know what they’re doing afterall. I’ll just shut-up now and go back to my corner in East Chicago.
In other news, we lost possible QB coach/passing coordinator
Greg Olson, who was hired by another team.
I am not surprised that Lovie is having trouble filling this spot. This franchise looks like it is in total chaos, with nobody leading the ship.
THIS is what happens when you fire the GM with no plan in place to replace him, when you have an accountant in charge of football operations, when you mandate to prospective GMs that your potentially lame duck head coach be kept in place for another year, and when you try to hire position coaches while your sort-of OC is interviewing elsewhere for jobs. This organization could not be doing a worse job right now. Dare I say it, but we’d be better off if Angelo stayed. At least we’d have some semblance of leadership and order. Right now the Bears are a total clusterfuck.
Prediction
daryl drake will be the Bears passing coordinator in 2012….
