What Can the Browns Do For You?


By doug_plank - Posted on 31 October 2009

What can they do?

Lay down like the lame dirty dogs that they are!!!

What's almost as bad as a trap game?

A blow out against a weak team the week after being exposed by a good team.

Sure we will feel warm and happy as the Bears trample the hapless Browns, but we know in the back of our minds that this team will not be going anywhere this year and without drastic changes on the O line next year too.

The Bears have one goal this year.

"Protect your quaterback"

Franchise quaterbacks usually do not fall into your lap, even rarer are one's that are polished and ready to play and produce.

Of course the football gods laugh at the Bears when they win this QB lotto, and have no offensive line to protect him.

On a positive note, the Bears will salute Walter Payton, the greatest football player in the history of the NFL. Bittersweet, no pun intended, is this anniversary. As it is the 25th anniversary of Walter breaking the all time rushing record and the 10th anniversary of his death.

I can still remember sitting in my family's den watching CBS as Walter took a pitch left and pushed through the Saints' line to break the great Jim Brown's record. There may have been some who have rushed for more yards then Walter but you could not convince me they were better.

The last great offensive franchise player the Bears had.

Bears 34-10.

 

BEAR DOWN!!!

Jim Miller is insulted by this sentence.

Fire da bums already!

I'm not much of a celebrity hound or worshiper, but there have been two deaths in my lifetime I really felt sad about. John Belushi, and Walter. I loved Belushi so much because he could find a way probably to make a joke out of Walter dying and somehow get away with it. I loved Walter for a million things: For stiff arming everyone who was within 20 yards of him. For introducing (I think) the concept of slamming the ball about five yards in front of where he was tackled to get some extra yards from the refs. For leaping over walls of angry linemen in the red zone to score a touchdown. But mostly, his eyes. He just acted and looked like a very good man.

Rosenbloom stole your headline btw...

Fire da bums already!

Not really an imaginative title.

Great minds think alike?
