That Sucks: Brandon Marshall Traded To Dolphins (Update)
I had a feeling last night the Broncos would deal Brandon Marshall to Miami before I’d wake up this morning. Unfortunately, I was right. Don’t get me wrong: This isn’t upsetting just because I’m a Bears fan. I mean, the chances of Chicago landing Marshall were rather slim, anyway. No, instead this is quite horrible, because it’s Miami and they’re boring. (more…)


Here is the deal: We don’t have time, nor always the will, to make a post out of every semi-significant Bears-related tidbit that hits the InterWeb.

The last post of the week: something to ponder as you await the certain couch slouch and booze binge of this weekend.
Brandon Marshall. Jay Cutler. Trade. Pat Bowlen. Will The Bears Sign A Wide Receiver? Okay, now that we’re fully SEO optimized: Jay Cutler obviously likes what Brandon Marshall is bringing to the table, but his ambitious compliment to the absurdly off-center wide receiver might be a little much.
A franchise quarterback precipitously becomes available in an otherwise uneventful team offseason so, naturally, you make a trade for said quarterback and in the process, fix a 25-year old problem. Then, not one, not two, but three wide receivers with Pro Bowl talent unfathomably follow suit. What do you do?
