Gabe Reid’s Four-Year Plan Was Much More Effective Than My Own

by Decatur Staley on Friday 16 July 2010 at 11:45 am

Gabe Reid was awarded $325,000 in workers’ compensation from the Bears for an injury suffered at the end of his four-year, bench-riding career. Mike Brown, Pro-Bowl safety, only received $140,000 after he was injured. Apparently, to be awarded more money, you just have to sit at home eating bon-bons. (more…)

If Brian Urlacher Never Dislocated His Wrist …

by Shea Johnson on Tuesday 12 January 2010 at 9:00 pm

And this is where you finish the sentence. I’m well aware of the extreme “mootness” of the point, but it literally took me this long just to be ready for the healthy, inevitable “what went wrong” retrospection, so I’ll keep it short. You see, for the last two weeks, I’ve been futilely searching the Interwebs for the Bears first-week playoff match up. (more…)

For Fun, I Would Like To Hype Up Devin Aromashodu As Much As Possible

by Shea Johnson on Friday 11 December 2009 at 7:15 pm

The last post of the week; something to ponder as you await the certain couch slouch and booze binge of the weekend.

Devin Hester is likely out for Sunday’s Packers game, meaning we’ll all finally get to see some of Devin Aromashodu. I’d even go as far as to say that we might see Juaquin Iglesias, too, but everybody knows — third-round picks don’t play until year two! (more…)

Report: Bears Sign Cato June

by Shea Johnson on Tuesday 1 December 2009 at 4:45 pm

Indicating that Lance Briggs’ knee injury is probably more serious than not, the Bears have added former Colts linebacker Cato June to their waning defense. And sure, he played in Tampa and Houston too, but just like when someone passes, you only talk about the good.

Shocker: Very Small Man Hurt By Much Bigger Men

by Shea Johnson on Friday 20 November 2009 at 7:00 pm

The last post of the week: something to ponder as you await the certain couch slouch and booze binge of this weekend.

The NFL can be a really dangerous sport, so of course, I purposely sabotaged any chance that I’d ever belong in it years ago. And the danger component of it is heightened if you’re unable to see over your opponent, like Garrett Wolfe, who for the second year in a row is out for the season before it’s finished.

But please, try not to worry about the run game. Just have a good weekend.

Oh, Look It Here: Nathan Vasher Is Making A Comeback

by Shea Johnson on Friday 6 November 2009 at 2:00 am

Clearly, the most rewarding part of penning a post entitled “The Rise And Fall Of Nate Vasher” would be seeing resiliency rewarded. And with that: just when you thought it was safe to write off Vasher for good … yes! yes! … well, he doesn’t suck as a free safety. No, no, that’s a really good thing! (more…)

Give Away Your Sick, Tired And IR Frequenters

by Shea Johnson on Thursday 29 October 2009 at 6:30 pm

Remember all those highly-gifted football players that, at one time or another, were on a Bears roster, only to be plagued with stupid reoccurring injuries and never be heard from again? Well, it turns out that not only are most alive and well, but some are actually living up to expectations! … Elsewhere.
