    I howled in anger when Buffalo singed Owens a few years back thinking he'd be nothing but a distraction. The truth is that he was a team player that kept a low profile and is overall thought of very positively here...

    You know if my beloved Chicago Bears can put some pressure on opposing quarterbacks.......their offense looks more explosive than I can ever recall (including the 1985 season)..........they could.......they might........have a shot at the Su.......the Supe..........oh, damn it's just way too early to say it!

    The Key for Da Bears is keeping Cutler and Forte healthy. Bears looked good before they went down last season. Let's go G-Men. I'd rather see the Bears win the division than that Ellen Degeneres look alike playing QB for the Packers.

    Yes, they looked solid last year, but with the addition of Brandon Marshall (who I was not initially in favor of), the emergence of Alshon Jeffrey, getting Earl Bennett back on the field, then adding Bush and Bell to the running game, they look to have real firepower.

    I wouldn't put a whole hell of a lot of faith in that guy. He's a walking, talking sack of damaged goods, with some highly disturbing behaviorial outbursts collected over the years. Seriously, if the Dolphins (a team without a prayer in hell of competing this or any other year, let alone with an incompetent management and front office) can lick a finger, stick it in the air, sense the temperature and get rid of the player, that in and of itself should tell you something. The dude has been in trouble with the law since his college days, and after getting stabbed in the stomach by his own wife last year, he decided to duke it out with a woman in a nightclub a few months ago. Strangely enough, the Bears signed the jerk two days later.

    Yet I'm one to talk. We are starting a rookie QB for the first time in the team's history, supported by an offensive line that is about as efficient as a screen door on a submarine. Let the annual sulking and finger pointing begin yet again. In about a week or so, I'll make my yearly announcement that Miami has been mathematically eliminated from the play offs. Believe it or not, there once was a time when I'd actually wait until the season began before doing so.

    Don't get me wrong, I'm not ready to let Marshall come over for dinner or take long hot showers together but he seems different when he's around Jay Cutler for some reason. I've read that the two are roommates at camp and on the road and spend all their time talking and playing games. It seems to change Marshall somehow. He had two Pro Bowl seasons with Jay in Denver, I'm ok with him remaining in Chicago as long as he behaves himself. One thing I am very proud of regarding the Bears organization is that they will not hesitate to cut a player that gets onto trouble.

    Having said that, I believe that once he is out of football for good without a support system around him he will end up like Chris Henry or OJ Simpson.

    I think Marshall is a Cancer. Talented guy.....million dollars worth of talent with ten cents worth of brains. As for the Lions, they definitely have talent.....on offense. They have no running back, Javid Best's career is possibly over due to concussions, and the coach has absolutely no control over his team. All that team does is take dumb penalties over and over....and their defense is weak. If the Lions somehow improve their defense and learn some discipline and maturity, they could be good. You never know from one year to the next what can happen in the NFL......I'm a Giants fan. I would be completely lying if before game 1 of last season I thought the G-Men would win it all. I'm just sick of hearing morons like Clay Matthews say the Giants were lucky last year when we beat the Packers by 17 pts on their home turf.

    Speaking of T-Ho, he just got cut by the Seahawks the other day. You can stick a fork in him, he's done. I mean, how many teams are going to want a 38 year old, way past his prime, selfish, primadona, egotistical, perennial locker room cancer of a receiver?

    According to the LA Times NFL beatwriter, the replacement refs will be starting the season as talks broke down between the NFL and the Ref's association. No further discussions are scheduled...

    That's funny...when he was playing for the Cowboys, my brother and I used to comment after he dropped a few passes that he ate some greasy fried chicken before the game, again.

    I remember watching him drop several crossing patterns in the playoffs against the G-Men in the 2007-08 season.

    Pretty proud of your cubs err bears for a game that was handed to them. 13-7 and we turned the ball over on your side of the field how many times? A win is a win no doubt but dominant is hardly the word for a game that was handed to them. At least Suh got to bruise that bitch Cutlers vagina before it was over.

    I didn't see fumbled center to QB or QB to RB exchanges. I saw the ball getting punched out, something called "forcing turnovers", which I believe is earning it as opposed to having it given to you. The Lolcats got lucky on a couple more that rolled out of bounds. They might have only been down 13-0 toward the end but even the MNF crew commented that it felt like more because they were never really in the game.

    There's a regular season NFL thread open. I posted a question about something I saw in the Monday game there. Just thought you'd like to know.
