And the Bears respond to Jason Baby.....I mean Babin. Sticks and Stones man, Sticks and Stones. Talk about "sour grapes". You not only got blocked but Lance Louis embarassed you and threw you around all night so stop with the whining already and just accept the fact that you got your ass handed to you.
Bears shrug off Babin's complaint
Eagles defensive end says crack block legal but uncalled for
By Brad Biggs, Chicago Tribune reporter 8:53 p.m. CST, November 10, 2011
Jason Babin had plenty to say about a play he knows was legal — Kellen Davis' crack block on him on a Jay Cutler rollout Monday night.
The Bears didn't seem overly concerned with the over-the-top complaint from the Eagles defensive end, who called offensive coordinator Mike Martz "chicken (stuff)" on his Twitter account.
On the play, Davis came in motion and blocked an unsuspecting Babin, sealing the edge and allowing Cutler to roll out on what the Bears call a speed play. It's the kind of block that's in every playbook in the league.
"I'd assumed Lovie Smith has enough professionalism to not do something like that," Babin said, according to the Philadelphia Inquirer. "I saw it on tape and was like, 'Wow, they did that?' It was definitely an intentionally called play. Technically, no, it's not illegal, but if you look at the rules of a defenseless player, obviously I'm defenseless."
Babin said the Eagles have submitted the play to the NFL for review. The Bears offered a collective shrug.
"Everything we did in that game is certainly appropriate and there was nothing inappropriate," Martz said. "It was certainly within the guidelines of the NFL. I'm sure if that was not the case then we'd hear about it. We went after the Eagles. I mean, the guys are getting better. We're trying to get them to play physical football and that's what they did."
Davis said Babin can talk all he wants.
"I don't care what he said. It's football," Davis said. "I don't think he saw me coming but I've been hit plenty of times when I didn't see it coming. Hey, it's part of the game."

Babin will get over it. Next week, they'll go out and beat some other poor, unsuspecting schmuck. He's just angry because he couldn't outflank us.

Must be hard to cry like Babin does when the team is drowning.
Arguing on the internet is like winning the special olympics, even if you win your still messed up.
Restore the roar!

He should be careful. If his team is drowning, crying will only hasten its demise. lol
