It's not that I love Rex Grossman, I just hate the idea of Kyle Orton starting. When Rex is good, he's great. He made it look easy during the first half of '06. Kyle has never had a great game. He won ten cringe inducing wins as a rookie. He would manage to not suck so bad that the defense couldn't win the game. He was good for one touchdown every game or so. He "won" a game after throwing for 68 yards. He had a chance last season and it didn't look much better. 
Until Kyle does anything to prove he's a better option, I'm a Rex guy, and I hope he starts, stays healthy and looks for D. Clark. Desmond Clark was a weapon in '06. He stays healthy, averages 12 yards a carry, and doesn't lose the ball. Until Olsen steps up, D. Clark is still the man at tight end.
Erik Kramer during game one. He was funny, laughing at Daniael Manning running out of bounds making no effort to get back in. A homer in the booth for Bears games.
Moose, Goose and Douche. No respect for the Bears.
Boers and Bernstein on the Score.
"Are you watching the Bears game tonight?"
"No."
"Do you care about the Olympics?"
"No. And you shouldn't. Nobody should."

Lou Canellis, the preseason sideline reporter, on 190North. It's like Wild Chicago but not as cool. Lou did a piece, a Turkish bath on Division street while wrapped in a towel, written by Lou Canellis.

A criticism I've had of Robbie Gould has been short kickoffs. The Bears are smart in that they usually never make him attempt a field goal over 50 yards. This keep his accuracy very high. The problem is his kickoffs landing on the 15 yard line. Last year Adrian Peterson of the Vikings ran a kick off back for a touchdown from the 15. In the first preseason game, Gould kicked consistently to the end zone. Way to go Robbie. And your name is Gold. You are Jewish. Don't deny it.
