Just because I don't want to respond to any more emails: DONOVAN MCNABB WILL NOT BE A CHICAGO BEAR. So Bears receivers can rest assure - they will not have balls thrown at their ankles in 2007. Instead they can continue to enjoy seeing those balls thrown to the opposition.
The McNabb to the Chicago Bears rumor started in a column by Don McKee of the Philadelphia Inquirer who is basically doing his best impression of a caller to the Mike & the Mad Dog show. "Uhhh yeah, Dawg...how about we trade Giambi and Pavano for someone like, I don't know, Ray Halloway." (That was on purpose folks.) McKee's proposition, while interesting, has about as much merit as my opinions on astro physics.
In case Jerry & Co. are sitting in Halas Hall pondering this move, I'd like to formally ask that they stop.
Addendum: If you haven't seen David Fleming's ESPN column on coaching in the NFL, please read it. It is some of the best sportswriting of this year. Other than that, have a happy Memorial Day. In Jersey...it's better than Christmas.
#2 AfroCelt said . . .Yeah! Midway is First Again (and from Louisana no less!).
I don't want McNabb even if he is available. Stay with t-Rex!

#7 Pissed off said . . .ditto Megan, ditto... besides McNabb is like a McDonald McNugget: looks like chicken but is really mostly corn. (okay ...okay...I know I am reaching for some sort of sophisticated humorous analogy that turns out is a bit obscure... Hey, whatda ya want from me? it's the off season & I just got out of rehab).

#10 Midway Monster said . . .Oh my stars, Midway. I thought you were playing golf in the bayou? The only slight connection I could see with your analogy is maybe calling McNabb, "McNugget" otherwise, you lost me on that one.

Yea Rex is better than McNabb, and Mike Vick was just running a free veterinary clinic. Get the fuck outta here. I'm a Bears fan but be rational. Obviously, certain people like Pissed Off (who lives right between Rex's asshole and his tiny scrotum) wants Rex to take the snaps. Why the fuck are you people acting like Rex Grossman is a savior when he's pretty much the reason the Lombardi trophy isn't here???

Here at DaBearsBlog, you are free to kill us or the Bears as you so wish. You are not free, however, to be an asshole. So if you spew racism or ill-meaning foul language (cursing about football is just fine) or anything of that ilk, your comments ain't gonna last long, jerk.
