Jay Cutler is now a Bear!

This is awesome news! Very pleased! The defense simply are not going to know whether to watch Cutler or Forte when anticipating the run, and that’s a very important distraction, especially when he also has a terrific arm.

Superbowl Thoughts

Monday, February 2nd, 2009

That was one of the most enjoyable Superbowls that I think I have ever watched. Being a Chicago Bears fan, I didn’t have extreme interest, but had picked Pittsburgh to win, though by the end of the 3rd quarter I wanted the Cardinals to close it up and make it a more exciting game – and did they ever! You really didn’t know whether there was going to be an upset or not… In the end, it seems the Cards lost it with a few bonehead penalties. I think they lost over 100 yards in the game due to penalties…

Anyway, moment of the game for me was when James Harrison (a Linebacker, built for strength and small bursts of speed), intercepted a pass on the goal-line (stopping the Cardinals from scoring), but then ran it the whole way back down the field avoiding tackles and managing to stay on his feet for 100 yards – finally landing on his head in the end zone for a touchdown.

Devin Hester rated #8 best player of 2007

Sunday, April 27th, 2008

Devin Hester was rated #8 player of the year by the NFL Network, even though all he did was return kicks! If you think that American Football is all about big guys who can hardly move, think again…

Chris Williams to the Chicago Bears?

Friday, April 25th, 2008

That’s what all the experts are saying… Who will the Chicago Bears pick from the NFL Draft this weekend? Only time will tell…

I think he would make an excellent choice for any team though, check out his speed and strength:

The Bears… Sucked!

Such a dissapointing season for the Bears… Here’s to the next one!

Will the Bears make the playoffs?

Thursday, November 29th, 2007

It’s one hell of a long shot, they have to win every game remaining if they’re going to and that’s no small feat. Against Denver (and actually the last five games or so) the Bears have looked like a different team to the start of the season and really looked like they could win even when they didn’t. The Denver game was so exciting, ending in overtime after things were all-tied at 34-34 after regular play.


Highlights of the Denver vs. Chicago game.

With Benson now injured for the season I think the running game should improve now Wolfe and Peterson are carrying, Grossman will hopefully continue to play his good side out there (any failures attributed to him in the game against Denver were the fault of the Receiver’s and the Offensive Line failing to protect him, in my opinion), and Hester will probably continue to run through the opposing teams for the rest of the season like they don’t even exist. If I remember rightly last year it was when Hester was running in slop that he was able to really do a number on the opposing teams… Statistically the New York Giants are outplaying Chicago for the 2007 season, so this Sunday’s game could be a close game but if Chicago play like we all know they can (but have had trouble reaching) then they’ll win-out.

Trinity University 28 – Millsaps 24

Wednesday, October 31st, 2007

This final play of a US College Football game looks suspiciously like Rugby to me. ;) This type of play seems very unusual in football and I really don’t understand why, if you look at the amount of easy space that can be created!

It’s ‘Fall’ Weather at last… What the…?

Tuesday, October 9th, 2007

I’m just joking. ;)

I don’t have a problem with the way America has ‘renamed’ certain things like Soccer and Fall, but I do sometimes wonder why and how certain ones came about. Fall seems obvious (If I am right); It’s the time of year when leaves ‘fall’ from the trees.

I don’t actually understand what was wrong with Autumn though? Maybe I should start a petition to change the months from ‘Spring’, ‘Summer’ and ‘Winter’ to ‘Unfurl’, ‘Bake’ and ‘Vanish Entirely’…

I am glad that things will start to cool down around here though as we go through ‘Fall’ – it’s been a long, hard, hot ‘Bake’. I don’t mind ‘Vanish Entirely’ either, but ‘Unfurl’ is unbearably cold.
