We haven't done one of these in a while, and with rookie mini camp concluded last weekend we have a fresh batch of pictures in the hopper to check out. I like the new bespectacled look that offensive coordinator Mike Tice is sporting and that stern look from Lovie Smith is almost Cowher-esque.

There are no rules for this caption contest, and that's fitting because there'll be no prize handed out to the winner. But remember to rec your favorites so the most rec'ed will at least have the satisfaction of being the greenest on the thread.

Good Luck!

That guy on the right there is new Chicago Bears General Manager Phil Emery. A lot was made about his meticulously paced, some even called it a boring press conference. It was a lengthy presser yet some believe he really didn't say anything of substance. Here are the rules for this caption contest.

As requested by Just Dave earlier today in our look at the roster battle at receiver, we're dusting off the caption contest.  Here are the rules...  There are no rules!  Remember to rec your favorites and maybe, just maybe, the fine folks at SBNation will dip into one of their many sponsors and come up with a splendid prize package that will be the envy of all other websites! *

New Chicago Bears running back Marion Barber is running towards former LSU Tiger and grizzled Bears veteran Craig Steltz .  He appears to have expertly avoided the block, but the question remains...  What is he thinking?
