Lovie Smith and the Bears management is nothing if not consistent. 2008 marks the third time in the past four seasons the Bears begin a season employing 6 white starters and just 13 whites on their 53 man roster. (In 2006 it was 5 and 12.)


Smith is consistent in other ways. He said Brock Forsey, one of the best college tailbacks of the past two decades, looked like a waterboy more than a football player and cut him, even after Forsey had done very well in an emergency starting stint (is there any other kind when it comes to white running backs?).


The Bears have wretched receivers, but never played Mike Hass, the 2005 Biletnikoff Award winner, never letting him play during a regular season game in 2007 and then cutting him this summer at the end of training camp. Of the past ten Biletnikoff Award winners, nine were drafted in the first or second round of the NFL Draft and were given years to prove themselves as starters. One was drafted in the sixth round and in three seasons has yet to play in a regular season game much less plugged in as a starter. Guess which one of the ten is white?


Also long gone are WRs Derek Abney and Eddie Berlin, two other receivers who didn't fit in with the Bears' sacred code of employing only terrible blacks at the position.


Kyle Orton opens the season as the starting quarterback. Orton must have strong masochistic tendencies, as white Bears fans seem to despise the white quarterbacks and defensive backs on the team (and also Hunter Hillenmeyer). Only future Hall of Famer Brian Urlacher seems to be immune to the self-loathing and misdirected anger that emanates from white sports fans in Chicago (and all over the country).


Orton is very smart and played at Purdue, two things he shares in common with Drew Brees, another quarterback who was written off before blooming into a superstar. Whether Orton can be anywhere near as successful as Brees remains to be seen, but it wouldn't be surprising if he does better than the very low expectations just about everyone seems to have for him.


Rex Grossman, who must have the thickest skin in the United States, remains with the Bears as Orton's backup. Wonder how Vince Young would take it if he was subjected to one-tenth of the fan abuse Grossman has received.


Caleb Hanie, the rookie out of Colorado State who looked poised during the preseason, is the third quarterback.


The o-line once again resembles a mini-United Nations. RT John Tait, now in his tenth season out of BYU, is the lone white starter, though veteran All-Pro center Olin Kreutz is of mixed white and native Hawaiian descent.


Backup guard Dan Buenning is the only other white o-lineman on the roster.


Mediocre Desmond Clark is still listed as the starting tight end, but we're giving even Lovie Smith the benefit of the doubt here and giving the honor to second year man Greg Olsen, who is 6-5 255 pounds and as fast as many starting wide receivers in the NFL. However, his big play potential has been very underutilized to this point and it's doubtful whether he'll ever reach his potential playing for the Bears.


The defensive side isn't quite as woeful, given the presence of Urlacher and Hillenmeyer. Hillenmeyer was originally a 5th round draft pick by the Packers before being cut and signed to the Bears practice squad and eventually becoming a starter. Urlacher has battled back problems the past year but still is playing at the highest level at his position.


Dusty Dvoracek is the starter at one of the tackle spots. The 3rd round draft pick out of Oklahoma is strong as a bull but missed almost all of his first two seasons with Chicago due to injury problems.


Rookie free safety Craig Steltz was drafted in the 4th round after making several All-American teams in his senior season with national champs LSU. Despite being all over the field and playing against mostly SEC teams, Steltz is stereotypically derided as lacking the "speed" and "athleticism" to play in the NFL. Whites not only are totally shut out at cornerback, they can't even play safety according to the drunk white fans.


What's amazing is that many of these fans are old enough to remember the NFL of the 1960s and '70s, which was thoroughly integrated and which featured many high caliber white players at all the positions which they are forbidden to play today. Just shows how easily Americans can be duped and re-trained in their thinking by a mass media that never deviates from its ludicrous propaganda line that blacks are vastly superior athletes to whites.


NUMBER OF WHITE STARTERS: 6

Black safety McGowan was placed in IR today, with Joey Larocque, a white linebacker, called up from practice squad. Will this move get Steltz in the mix?

I wouldn't expect alot right away. He doesn't cover well enough yet according to the coaching.

Of course everyone should listen to what Lovie and his coaches say as gospel

after their collapse since 2006 and the 407 yards that Brian Griese put up against the vaunted *chuckle* Bears secondary. Steltz also has a bit of an ankle injury right now.

In a white friendly carousel of moves Safety Mike Brown was put on IR, and Stelz may start tomorrow. Also, Cameron Worell was signed to take Browns roster spot.

A move like Steltzgetting a chance to start would be greeted with anticipation were he white. After all he had a great, All-Americansenior seasonat LSU. Instead there was criticism when the guy was drafted in the fourth round because virtually everyone makes the racist assumption that he's too slow to play in the NFL.


The NFL has a lot of slow safeties. Even the announcers and pundits will say of particularly bad defensive backfields that they are slow. But because they are almost always all black, for some reason it never sinks in the soggy brains of the drunk white fans that their heroesusually are 4.5, 4.6 and slower.


Anyway, let's hope Steltz plays well because he is going to be under heavy scrutiny, especially so playing for the permanently hurt but beloved Mike Brown.

Mike Brown is hurt? You don't say?

How they can consider them one of their "defensive captains" is beyond me. Has he ever played a full season?

The even more hilarious thing about the super-overrated Mike Brown is that he's simply nothing special....that is, when he actually plays.

Like Don has mentioned before, he's like Bob Sanders with half the speed and agility. God knows they both miss the same amount of games.

The caste rule for injuries are as such...

If a black player is injured, it's because he's plays too hard during the game. If a white player is injured, he will be forever know as "injury prone" and "soft." These are the words the caste deciples taught the sheeple to pray.Edited by: Thrashen

Yes, it's the phenomenon seen especially with black QBs -- the more injury pronea black playeris the "tougher" the media claims he is, whereas injury prone white players are ridiculed for their softness (Chris Chandler, Drew Bennett). Brett Favre and Peyton Manning are the "Iron Men" of their sport, not Steve McNair and Byron Leftwich (cue, for the millionth time, the footage of Leftwich's teammates at Marshall carrying him down the field

).

Haha, I was actually expecting to see that "sacred footage" while Leftwich was playing for the injured Roethlisburger this past sunday. For the first time ever, it was not played.Edited by: Thrashen

I guess I have blocked said footage from my memory, or either I've never seen it. That being the case, I'm not too concerned with which one it is, but I'm glad they didn't show it again.

According to SI, when Bears wide receivers coach Darryl Drake was "axed" why his receivers drop so many passes he answered, "Some of it is just not making the catch."


For two seasons this Rhodes Scholar and Lovie Smith had on their team a wide receiver with the best handsin football, one who also just happens to have a Biletnikoff Award trophy on his mantle. Yet the Bears nor any other team in the league saw fit to play him for even a few games to see what he could do. Yes, DWFs, there is a Caste System in sports.

'

Not to mention the fact that Lovie and his other genius companion Ron Turner have arguably one of the most physically gifted TE's on their roster in Greg Olsen, who is basically a WR and yet can't get this guy more involved in the passing game despite all of their useless excuses for WR's mucking it up every week. Olsen's numbers did improve this season, but as long as Lovie has his buddy Dez ( i get to start every game even though I am a journeyman) Clark, Olsen is never going to reach his potential for the Bears. That whole lousy Bears coaching staff needs to be thrown out yesterday, including Pep Hamilton who according to Lovie Smith is a good QB coach despite not having a single QB over the last couple of years who has been worth a damn. Oh well, you get what you pay for, which is why the Bears should have let crud Lovie walk after his lucky Superbowl instead of giving him a raise because he was discriminated against because he is black.

A naive Bears fan (since he's from Denmark his ignorance of the NFL's anti-white policies can be excused) recommends to a Chicago Sun-Times writer that the team sign Drew Bennett as their number two WR and is quickly shot down. When you have the likes of Earl Bennett, Devin Hester, Rashied Davis and other all-stars, how silly to even ask.


Q: I think the Bears should try to sign Drew Bennett. He could be a good No. 2 guy next to Devin Hester. Is Bennett getting any attention from the Bears?


Bjarke H., Copenhagen, Denmark


A:
Bennett was a colossal free-agent bust for the St. Louis Rams, and they released him after two seasons in a $30 million contract. He made 33 catches in 2007 and then had one last year before a foot injury forced him to injured reserve. I think Angelo has been pretty clear that the first place he is looking for wide receiver help is the draft. Fortunately, there is a good crop of receivers this time around and the team is doing its homework. We reported first right here the Bears are having a get-together with Brian Robiskie and will work out Georgia's Mohamed Massaquoi next week. They are some possession-type guys who don't have Bennett's size, but could be decent contributors early in their careers.

from rotoworld:

After a week of questions, Bears NT Dusty Dvoracek did indeed suffer a torn ACL and he will miss the season.

Dvoracek tore the knee in last week's preseason game. It's his fourth straight season-ending injury. At first Dvoracek said reports that he was out for the year were incorrect, but now it's been confirmed.

I hate to hear that about Dusty. I hope somehow he can come back from this to play again.

This sounds like Steve Emtman all over again? Is he more of a speed guy or a power guy? Edited by: white is right
