The Chicago Bears have not been subtle in their attempt to move starting defensive end Alex Brown. It was rumored early on that he was being shopped around. Then Lovie Smith confirmed it at the NFL Owners meetings last Wednesday that Brown was available if the price was right. Since then, it seems that the Bears threw logic to the wind. They let on that if they could not find a suitable deal, they ...

The Chicago Bears and an Addiction 20 Years In The Making

Posted: 17th December 2009 by Max Kienzler in NFL
My name is Max and I have an addiction. My problem started back in the early '90s. It seemed so innocent. So easy. So carefree.á I could just sit down on Sunday afternoons and enjoy the game. Back then it didn't matter as much if the Bears won. They were never supposed to win. They were never supposed to be good. I could sit there drinking a soda and eating my wings with my ...

I am writing this article in the fourth quarter with eight minutes left. I do not need to see the rest of the game. Everything I need to know the Bears showed me in the first three quarters.áAnd that is quite obvious. The Chicago Bears have quit. They have quit on this game. They have quit on this season. They have quit on Lovie Smith. And they have quit on their fans. Not every player and ...

Jay Cutler vs. Rex Grossman: You Be The Judge, Bear Fans

Posted: 13th November 2009 by Max Kienzler in NFL
On a night where the Chicago Bears defense actually kind of, sorta, in a small way showed up, it was the Chicago Bears offense that dropped the ball ... no pun intended. And to be perfectly accurate, it was the Bears' quarterback again reminding everyone how poor that position has been for the past 20ûplusûyears. Jay Cutler threw five (count 'em, five) interceptions and in doing so, he looked remarkably like the ...
The Chicago Bears backup running back Garrett Wolfe suffered a kidney injury this past weekend in their game against the Arizona Cardinals.
