LOL.
Yeah when I was growing up in Highland Park it was considered "UP NORTH" !

I'm getting to that age where a lifetime warranty just doesn't mean as much to me anymore as an afternoon nap.

Best example of a smokescreen he could have given us was JA pretending he was a GM

PS: I wonder if Jay Cutler's going away present to him was a free sack by the entire NY Giants defensive line? Like, come on over Justin, Osi, Jason, Chris and the rest of ya', go ahead and take your best shot. And hey, not one at a time either. All together now hi-low, one two three!

And dining with players like Stephen Hill and Kendall Wright may just be an inexpensive way to throw competitors for the pass rushers off the track. Lovie had to eat anyway didn't he? Might as well invite some company, LOL.
I love the way all the teams do there little "gaslight" routines from now until the draft. Articles quoting Lovie and Emery about how content they are with the Oline when they'd kill for the chance to take David DeCastro. Maybe interviewing Bruce Irvin when they wouldn't touch him a ten foot pole just to get teams to look at him rather than Mercilus and whatever else goes along with a smokescreen.......or not. haha

yeah, pretty much this. As a guy who was born and raised a Chicago Suburbanite, theres is basically Chicago, then umm...farms and stuff. Its just like NYC and New York...if you live in one f the NYC burroughs or Long Island, its either 'New York City' or 'upstate NY.'
