Almost Famous
I have read mixed reviews on the Bears trading two first round picks and a third round pick for Jay Cutler. I really like the trade for both teams. A lot of critics are saying the Bears gave up too much. That's all relative because draft picks are question marks. If the Bears continue to draft terribly in the first round (Cedric Benson, Rashan Salaam, Curtis Enis, et cetera) or will they draft future pro bowlers? What they received was a 25 year old pro bowler with his best years ahead of him. So many teams are constantly worried about the future, that they never worry about winning in the present. The Bears are not going to win the Superbowl this year but they have put themselves in a good position to win it in two or three years. It doesn't matter how good the Vikings' linebacking corps are. It doesn't matter how strong their cornerbacks are. If they don't have a good quarterback, they will never win the Superbowl.
1. Last night I picked up my sister and we saw the new Paul Rudd/Jason Segal movie I Love You, Man. It's good, not spectacular, but worth seeing. I give the movie a B and I would probably advise you to wait until it comes to DVD. It was funny, quick, and actually pretty believable.
2. I am off to Iowa for the weekend.
3. Currently listening to "The Tide" by The Spill Canvas

in 2-3 years the D will be OLD (already are) and last year they were awful at times. imagine that with 3 more years tacked on the the secondary's knees...
cutler is good. no question.
but i question his leadership. if he's gonna be a lil diva like he has been, no one on that team will accept it.
the only thing i worry with the draft picks are that we have no WRs.
leading receiver last year was our RB. Hester, Olsen....that's it. not a good situation.
At least Orton made it work with what he had.
I was really embarrassed by how well I can relate to Paul Rudd's character.
