2010-11 Chicago Bears: The Last Time You'll See Utler Alive

[R-V]

DPD. The internets tell me Dan Lefevour is 6'3 - supposedly as tall as Cutler. But he looked like a tiny Rex on my TV screen. Have I been drinking too much paint thinner?

Bears nation exhales in relief...

Hanie said the injury involves the AC joint and that no surgery will be required.

I had a grade 2 separation of my AC Joint last month and just wanted to let everyone know that it'll probably take Hanie a while to get back to full strength.  Could be bad news. 

While we're talking about backup QBs, it's worth noting this completely unconfirmed (but probably 100% true) nugget from KSK yesterday, since it applies to the Bears:

Right now I am watching the Colts-49ers preseason game and holy fucking shit is Curtis Painter AWFUL. So here is a story about a former Colts backup and the team's thoughts on him.

One of my friends used to work/intern for a sports show. One day, he was helping a reporter interview Colts OC Tom Moore. The Colts, of course, were set at QB with LaserRocketArm, so the reporter decided to question Moore about the backup, Jim Sorgi. One part of the interview went a little something like this.

Reporter – How many reps does Sorgi get with the first team offense during the week?

Moore – None.

Reporter – Why is that?

Moore – Because he doesn't play with the first team during games.

Reporter – So you don't want him to get any practice with the first team, in case Peyton goes down?

Moore – Well, if Peyton goes down, we are fucked.

Reporter – So why not give Sorgi some first team reps just in case he does?

Moore – Why would we practice being fucked?

I sat by the pool and recited Eazy-E lyrics with Sorgi on Memorial Day Weekend. He's an agreeable sort. Has a dumb-looking Wisconsin tat on his shoulder but other than that I consider him an non-douche by pro-ballplayer standards.

Holy flaming balls of rancid shit did Chris Williams look awful last night.

Even though the Bears looked like dog shit last night it's still hard for me to put any stock into preseason games.

Even though the Bears looked like dog shit last night it's still hard for me to put any stock into preseason games.

What were they last year, 3-1?

They looked like shit but I'm not going to cry over it. If anyone is surprised the the offensive line is below average than that person is not paying attention.

Yeah, 3-1. If IIRC they were 1-3 in 2006 and winless in 1985. The 0-16 Lions were 4-0 in the preseason. So no, it doesn't matter,  but the individual matchup issues are concerning because Orlando Pace getting schooled by Dumerville last year was a sign of things to come as well.

Besides Pace being old - also that Dumervil is an excellent player?

True. And when Chris Williams isn't old at all and Kamerion Wimbley is a first round bust with his second organization, what does That say?
