I would crap my pants if this happened. If I didn't have to crap at the time, I would wait until I did and then crap them. Thats how likely I think this trade would be.

I've always got my ears to the NFL tracks and I haven't heard that. Not going to happen, Bears fans would riot.

The Bears do need a left tackle badly (they're going to end up moving Tait to LT by the end of the year) but they wouldn't trade Urlacher for one. If anything they'd try and trade up to 4 or 5 and draft Gallery.

Either way, the rumors in chicago is that the bears aren't going to do anything until their pick rolls around and then if Steven Jackson is still on the board they'll trade down to someone who needs an RB (not going to be NE because they got Corey Dillion yesterday.)

They are in the Kurt Warner durby, though why the hell they are no one can seem to figure out.


I don't know what San Diego is going to do, but expect it to implode. San Diego is the new Cincinnati.

A couple things:

1) I played soccer for 6 years and 12 seasons in my formative years. Its boring as hell to even play, much less watch. Rugby is 10 times better, although if you've never played its pretty much useless to watch because it looks like smear the queer with teams.

2) Most Canadians don't even like Canadian Football. I spent 2 months in Toronto and everyone I talked to wanted to talk about the NFL, and laughed when I brought up the CFL. Maybe its different where you live, Typhoid.

3) Hockey does rule, but not as much as Football.

Back on topic: I didn't think there was much to the Tre Thomas/Urlacher rumor either, though I would love if it happened. Then the Eagles would have The Freak heading up the D Line, Urlacher heading up the LB corps, and Dawkins leading the D Backs...

I have to go change my drawers now...

I'll leave this alone after this, but just because you aked some people in Toronto if they liked CFL, that doesnt mean most of Canada doesnt, its just that Toronto has lost of major teams to split up the fans. About Soccer, i find it to be quite fun, unless you are losing, then you must cheat to win, mwahahaha. But its your own opinion.

About the NFL though....Am i the only person who kind of likes the Bronco's? And i think that they should get a WR now that McCaffery is gone...( im pretty sure he is) even though he wasnt all too good lately, they need to make some major WR trades or signings or something...
