You might all remember that last season we were lucky enough to get ahold of some Jerry Angelo wiretaps and post the transcripts of said taps right here, for you, on DaBearsBlog.com. Well apparently Jerry doesn't hold a grudge and had willingly given us five minutes to speak with him.
DABEARSBLOG: Jerry, congrats on a great draft. Most teams have strange approaches to draft day but you really targeted a need for the Bears...defense.
JERRY ANGELO: Absolutely. We felt that once we demoted ten-game winner Kyle Orton to third string, we had essentially solved all of our offensive issues. We know you can't win championships with the second-ranked defense in the league. You HAVE to be first.
DBB: Some critics have suggested that you're drafting of Dusty D from Sooner-land will simply add another deviant to a roster full of them...
JA: I can't disagree more. Ricky Manning Jr. was not drunk at Denny's at three o'clock in the morning. People JUST GO to Denny's at that time to eat. It's a very normal time to go to Denny's. And let's remember that the person who was supposedly beaten unconscious WAS a nerd. Fuck nerds. Anyone who tells me that football players shouldn't be able to kick a little nerd ass now and then is just dead wrong.
DBB: Why no extension for Lovie Smith?
JA: No what?
DBB: No contract extension...
JA: Why would I do that?
DBB: Because he had a good year?
JA: Oh.
DBB: So...?
JA: Blow me.
DBB: Do you think we'll see something different this season from the Chicago Bears?
JA: If history is any precursor, more injuries and losing.
DBB: Quick three to finish. First, favorite draft pick you've made for Da Bears?
JA: Michael Haynes.
DBB: Really?
JA: Fuck you.
DBB: Favorite deal you've made?
JA: Trading Ted Washington to New England for a third round pick and no reason whatsoever. Gotta have a big dick to do that, right?
DBB: If you weren't the General Manager of our beloved football team, what would you be doing right?
JA: Henry Burris and I just bought a house in Provincetown. We summer there.
Thanks you Jerry Angelo for his time. And good luck to him and Da Bears.
ahahaha Da Bears
