Bears signed WR Devin Thomas tonight to a 1 year deal. Former 2nd round pick out of Michigan State. Another quality special teamer who could give some depth at WR. Essentially, he's Sam Hurd's replacement.

Don't mention his name around the 49ers fans. He recovered little Kenny's fumbles.

Or like hockey having a shoot out....

 

 

I was just kidding about the field goals, but I do think they should just have like a 7:00 quarter and if its still tied after that go to a sudden death.

 

I like that idea as well

The #Bears only have $3.5 million in salary cap space, according to a league source. Bulk of the remaining needed for rookie class.

So if Barber hadn't retired we'd be close to no cap space, seems odd.

I'm guessing they knew it was coming, hence the Bush signing. No retirement, no Bush.

Agreed, just seems odd that we're down to that little amount left. Figured we'd be at least above $5mm going into the draft.

I wonder if it includes the extra $1.6 million from the Cowboys and Redskins?

Larry Coyer is cool as s***. Met him for the first time today.

Probably were going to cut him.

Apparently Mikel Leshoure was caught chewing weed in a traffic stop, his second marijuana possession bust in a month.

 

Chewing it? Seriously? At least get the rest off your shirt, dude. Kind of defeats the purpose.

I'm kinda worried about what these are going to look like. I really don't like some of the college uniforms.

Is this just the switch to Nike?

Yeah. People are tweeting that they don't look that different.

 

Except the Seahawks. Which I guess are awful.

Seattle's uniforms are hideous

Bears jerseys don't look much different

 

I'm so pissed, I was staying literally a block from the new NFL store 2 days ago. I would have seen a lot of stars had we been there a couple more days.

They shouldn't. Why mess with something that's solid?

because it is Nike. And they cannot help but tinker

Morris Claibourne scored a 4 on the Wonderlic test. Ouch

It sucks that this stuff goes public

Looks like tiny differences like the numbers being on the shoulders and the way the orange stripe thinggies are.

 

They removed GSH and moved the numbers on top of the shoulders for the Bears. Don't like the change.

 

Edit: Nevermind, GSH is still there.

I'm glad they didn't. Nike was making the unveiling such a big deal, I was worried they would do something drastic.

 

I had gotten a e-mail from the Bears two months ago offering 50% off jerseys to all season ticket holders. Now it makes so much more sense why they offered that.

Do you mean that Nike has more say on the uniforms design than the teams do?
