Mike Ditka Isn’t A Fan Of His Prostitute-Mother-Probing Ex-Ball Boy

by Shea Johnson on Wednesday 28 April 2010 at 7:30 pm

When Dolphins general manager Jeff Ireland hilariously asked then-draft prospect Dez Bryant if his mother was a prostitute, I think most of us were impressed with the restraint Bryant showed in not hilariously punching Ireland in his face. Mike Ditka, on the other hand, isn’t “pulling punches” — see what we did there?  — about the stupidity of the Chicago Bears ex-ball boy. Yes, Jeff Ireland used to be a Bears ball boy. (more…)

Blogger Stereotype Reawakened By Greg Olsen’s Brother

by Shea Johnson on Monday 12 April 2010 at 2:00 pm

Um…okay, let’s see: Greg Olsen went on to Twitter a couple of days ago to clear up some misinformation about his role in Mike Martz’ new offense. He took questions from fans. He, then, took particular exception when one Bears fan went off the friendly path. Olsen called him a clown. Olsen’s brother, in an amusing exchange of Twitter words, didn’t stop there. And, this all really happened. (more…)

Unfortunately, This Is Still Illegal In Wisconsin And Minnesota

by Shea Johnson on Monday 1 February 2010 at 1:00 am

Okay … Um … Let’s see … Geez.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with this. But I have a feeling the thousands of Packers and Vikings fans around the, you know, respective states of Wisconsin and Minnesota will disagree. Unless, they’re homosexual of course. Thanks to JerBear50 for the tip. (more…)

Jim McMahon Just Wants To Tell It Like It Is

by Shea Johnson on Thursday 7 January 2010 at 7:15 pm

“I told you guys 30 years ago (sic) what an idiot that owner [Michael McCaskey] is, and maybe you guys have finally realized it.” … Soooo you’re saying we might be the new Raiders? But I thought the Raiders were the new Raiders. (more…)

That Elusive Charles Martin-On-Jim McMahon Video (Update)

by Shea Johnson on Sunday 27 December 2009 at 4:00 pm

No one likes to remember that fateful day in November 1986 when Packers defensive tackle Charles Martin (RIP), unnecessarily and late, slammed Bears quarterback Jim McMahon to the hard artificial turf, ending his season and effectively putting quite the damper on any hopes of a repeat championship … But, apparently everyone does want to see the video.

Bears Would Prefer That NBC Not Spotlight Their Failures

by Shea Johnson on Thursday 19 November 2009 at 5:30 pm

So it hasn’t been the type of season everyone in Chicago had expected, you know, with the lofty expectations surrounding Jay Cutler and all. And yes, it is true that Cutler has particularly been error-prone while being watched by a prime time audience. But it doesn’t mean that NBC shouldn’t be allowed to put the whole mess together in one highly-edited, stylistic and dramatic three-minute presentation, does it? Oh, it does. (more…)

Rob Ryan Does Not Care For Jay Cutler

by Shea Johnson on Monday 2 November 2009 at 12:15 am

That’s Browns defensive coordinator Rob Ryan, who was visibly annoyed by Jay Cutler’s inability to make his defense look worse, after a fourth-and-goal incompletion. Cutler had to be held back from doing who-knows-what. Ryan then yelled something about sexual solicitation. It’s good to see that there’s no hard feelings left over from their days in the AFC West. Video after the jump. (more…)

Cedric Benson Wishes To Know Why You Hate Him So

by Shea Johnson on Thursday 22 October 2009 at 7:30 pm

It isn’t so much his role in the underachieving three-year stint he spent in Chicago that Cedric Benson chooses to focus on. Nope, instead it’s what everyone else did to purposely ruin his life. You know, like take Thomas Jones’ side on everything! Now, with the third-most rushing yards in the NFL, Benson finally feels okay to admit that the Bears weren’t necessarily the ideal work reference. (more…)

Brian Urlacher Was Once Awfully Close To Being The Late Brian Urlacher

by Shea Johnson on Wednesday 12 August 2009 at 5:00 pm

If you’re going to step on Brian Urlacher’s shoe, be prepared to be promptly asked to take it outside. However, if you’re surprisingly cordial about the whole thing… and a very talented MMA fighter, be prepared to be unremittingly forgiven. Our friend Zoner Sports has video of Bas Rutten recalling the 2006 incident that almost cost us are middle linebacker.
