Bears go for 2 up by 22 rather than hitting a fifth upright. :lol:

he has to be a mess right now. maybe you should get in contact with him and tell him about your counseling services.

i'm not sure it was 4 straight goalposts. i think he might have mixed in an extra point into his disaster. :coolio:

I skipped every game. Nothing interested me. (Other than the TNF matchup but TNF sucks no matter who's playing)
It's been 32 years since one of MN's four major sports teams has been to the Championship/Superbowl.
Every single year is failure until we win one. 4 teams, 32 years. That's roughly 128 consecutive failed seasons.

Makes me nervous for Bailey this week. Those swirling winds in CHI can be brutal.

I must admit I was wrong, it was an okay game. I just get annoyed by the talking heads Monday morning who are going to care about two 4-5 teams like they matter...just because of the Division they are in...

The thing is, doesn't Pittsburgh still control him next year now? The way I read it was he had to show up to get his year in. They did see Bells agent may have found a loophole.

Either way, Pitt will probably just let him walk and be do e with this mess.

Bell just cost himself a year of salary. Someone is going to sign him to a 3 year deal worth about what he would of made this year per year but it will really be a one year contract the way the next team will set it up.

He will virtually be back in the same boat. He should of took his huge payday this year.

this is what happens when you get your back up to make a point. i think it got personal for him and it's really a business. he cut off his nose to spite his face. he'll never make that money up. on the bright side his body didn't take a hit and his body feels better than every other player in the league. :mrgreen:

I gotta believe $14.5 million would make his body feel even better.
