Da Bears!!!

[Gomer]

Almost that time of year again. I am getting excited anyway.

They are going to be the first ever NFC North Division Champs!You heard it here first (even tho they have no home games this year)

SO GO BEARS!

[Mike]

LOL You calm down Gomer. Not going with the Lions this year? LMAO

[daveleau]

I hope my Saints do well this year. Getting rid of Williams is tough. The Bears need an Offense to match their league leading D. Then they'll be a force.

My Saints need both...

Gomer,

As a lifelong Vikings fan, all I can say to you is....I have no problem with the Bears winning the North as long as it keeps Green Bay from winning it. OOOh, I hate Green Bay (actually it is their fans that really get to me. Living in Wisconsin exposes me to too many of them).

I am really looking forward to this season. I like the realignment. I think it makes sense and am glad to see a pro league make a move that can please the majority of fans (as opposed to baseball's extortion tactics re: contraction). I think the North will be damn hotly contested with the Packers, your Bears and My Vikes.

All I can say is GO EAGLES!!!

Miller is going to lead Da Bears to the promised land. They got rid of a flaky OT as well which will help a lot. Don't forget the A-Train Anthony Thomas (AKA the Gay-Train to us Green and White). He had over 1000 yards in like 8 games last year as a rookie. I think he is going to be a force for sure this year. And yes... Defense is rock solid.

BTW... Da Bears are 7th in the Preseason Power Rankings at ESPN.com

[daveleau]

Yep, we just drafted our fantasy team for the Spawn.com league and I got the A-Train, so I am now a big A-Train fan.

Good to hear, I have season tickets here down in Champaign Aug 10th vs. Jacksonville, and you can bet your life ill be there!

Gomer, get your head on straight, dude. Miller is the worst thing to ever happen to the bears. The fact that they re-signed him just pisses me off something terrible. The boy's got no zip, and my grandma has a stronger arm than he does. Anybody remember how many passes he completed for over 15 yards? I don't, but I was pretty sure it hovered around 10. Good grief!! Anytime he tries to go long, the ball gets caught, just not by a player wearing a bears jersey. He just throws it too slow. The only way Miller can be a great QB is if all the opposing teams play prevent defense the whole freakin' game.

And don't even try to tell me how good the bears did last season. They got so lucky a good number of times with some crazy last minute plays and a couple questionable calls in their favor. They also had the easiest schedule in the league. I don't believe that's the case this year, and I can't wait for them to get slaughtered. I am a bears fan, but the owners need to understand that they don't have a winning combination if Miller is in the equation. I will continue to hope for their defeat as long as he is quarterback.

Why not buy a QB from New England? They've got 2.

Hm, at least Miller is better than Shane I can't throw anything but an out pass Matthews. Maybe Miller will get hurt and Chandler can step in...
