Biggs: Bears will be players in Free Agency
Doesn’t he wish. If Angelo was to leave the organization he’s led for 11 seasons, it would be a huge story. Did he check out the Theo Epstein hiring by the Chicago Cubs? But no one inside the organization is giving the sense right now that Angelo will hang ’em up this offseason.
If he doesn’t, I took one thing away from his informal news conference before the game: He’ll be a major player in free agency and big signings could lie ahead. I’m just reading between the lines here, but follow along:
“I still want to make a run at this,” Angelo said, referring to the Super Bowl title. “You know what my goal is right now? It’s to win a championship. I would really like to do that. That’s what I am focused on.”
If Angelo does return, it’s with the knowledge that he’s not going to be in the game a whole lot longer. If he believes the Bears are close -- and with a healthy Jay Cutler and Matt Forte the only NFC team definitively better than them is the Packers -- he could go all in. OK, maybe that’s not the right term to use after the last season by a certain baseball team in town. But if Angelo truly it motivated to make a run, he’s probably going to get aggressive with player acquisitions.

We need to be players in getting A+ grades in the draft, and let FA fill in pieces we couldn't get in the draft..

Every year they are this way. For the reason is that JA can't draft. Yesterday showed a complete lack of depth and play makers on the offense.

Oh Please ...... My ASS. I'm so sick and fkin' tired of this BULL SHIT HYPE Year after Pathetic Year.
They wont do JACK CRAP with it.
Angelo will just recover someone else's fumble ..... and, like the BEARS ... do nothing with it.

You sir are someone who ' gets it '. But ..... there are way too many, who STILL BUY the PR- handjobs. Moron # 1 is accountant Teddy Phillips - the accountant who has too much power running a FOOTBALL team when he should be running an H + R Block ..... and who fucks all of us over when he puts bullshit in the GM position.
What should you call any : Fumble , Hold , Interception , Three and out , or Sack ?
A " F.H.I.T.S " ? or a J'Marcus ?

We have to look into FA becuse Angelo can't draft worth a shit. The worst problem about FA is that Angelo has to break the bank to land a legit player. God I hate Jerry Angelo.

Jerry Angelo's General Manger's Guide:
Step 1. Draft 1st round bust, trade 2nd, claim you're a genius in 3rd-4th rounds.
Step 2. Hang onto 1st no matter what. Get nothing of value for 2nd, waive remainder.
Step 3. Acquire biggest name in Free Agency, surround them with journeymen.
Step 4. Fire up PR machine to proclaim all the steps you've taken to ensure a winner.
Step 5. Fail.
Step 6. Rinse.
Step 7. Repeat.

That thread I posted on Lovie Smith's sugar coating the loss in The Chicago Tribune says it all. It's fucking ridiculous that we have to sit through year-after-year of shit signings and even shittier draft picks. I sure as fuck hope that Jerry Angelo gets out of the game after this season is up because he has singlehandidly destroyed the Bears' chances for this season by not signing a quality backup quarterback for Cutler in case he got injured. Now, we're going to be lucky to win a game to finish the season out because we have no fucking offense, and that's just sad when you consider that we were 7-3 last month.
Truth be told, gentlemen, I was picking the Bears to go all the way to the NFC Championship Game against the Packers this year before the injury bug took its toll. Yeah, Jerry Angelo took care of us at the running back position by signing Marion Barber (I say leave Barber alone, he made a mistake by going out of bounds and that fumble was a good strip by the Donkeys' defense), but he didn't go out and get a veteran QB who can throw worth a shit EXCEPT for Josh McClown, who is one of Martz's asshole buddies from Detroit. I fully expect to finish this season with a 7-9 mark and get a draft spot somewhere within the top 15. Hopefully we can then either trade up and draft Blackmon (which I highly doubt), or draft Michael Floyd. Somehow, though, I doubt highly that Angelo will even go after a WR in the first or second rounds. That's because he's a fucking turd.

Yep ..... and to make matters even worst ... our Defense has seen it's Golden Age. These guy's are getting older now, and this "Window of Opportunity" is all but slammed shut for quite a few years to come.
Angelo COULD HAVE gotten Trent Green, or maybe even Boller. But they certainly wouldn't come here for less then 4 million for a year contract.
So, once again.....we take the CHEAP way out and don't sign anyone ... keep Caleb, and pray to GOD that Cuttler doesn't go down.
..... Opps!
Well, you GET what you PAY for.
And now ..... it's over.
7-3 just last month. And in 5th PLACE in the Power Rankings....And gaining serious respect!
7-6 now. @ 17th!!!
| 17 | Bears
7-6 | --
Last Week: 17 | How bad are things going to be if Caleb Hanie and the Bears lose to Tarvaris Jackson and the Seahawks? (Clayton) |
This Sunday we'll break even at 7-7
Christmas Day .... 7-8
Then One game left with Minnesota, and it's 8-8 (maybe).
Thank You Jerry AgaBLOW!!!!!!
Retiring?????? ..... GOOD FKIN' RIDDANCE!!!!!!! .... and take the rest of your Minions with ya! ... :-(
Another PATHETIC season.
