Days till Draft:Chicago Style

[Jiddy]

Not sure who was the worst draft pick ever for the Bears - there sadly have been so many. But for me, David Terrell has to be ranked at or near the top. God did he ever suck.

1998 to 2001 was the craziest stretch for us.

4 picks in the top 12 those years (#'s 5, 12, 9, and 8)

We score Urlacher and 3 of the worst picks in our history in that stretch (Terrell/McNown/Enis)

Patrick Mannely.......being we need a center,thought it would be a good time to post this guy......

 

[justanidiot]

for the older guys 65 was Noah Jackson, bulldozer for sweetness.

 

[justanidiot]

Lol.....day 60 is not here yet.....

I dont call myself an idiot for no reason, did not get the whole countdown. Must be under a rock when you do this.

I drank with Noah Noah Jackson.....

Back in 85,the Bears had a charity bball game vs the news channel 10 miles away from ne at a local highschool in a town of app.600........Erie zil.
After the game a few players showed up at the bar,Noah,Robin Earl and tomorrows player,one of the Bears cheerleaders and Mark Butkus......Dick was suppose to be there but was a no show,so his son took his place......
Ended up buying a shot of Patron for Noah and I.......fun time.




Note××
Anyone can post a pic of players on the right day,just leave a commentary if you like.....no discrimination here........

My claim to Bears players fame was having a brew with Bobby Douglass, altho it was well after his playing days with the Bears. Apparently he was one of the original investors in the Lettuce Entertain You bar & dining empire. Very nice guy. Then a number of years later I was attending a charity golf tourney and had the chance to speak with Richard Dent, who spotted me and my buddy each wearing a Bears cap. He actually strolled over and talked with us for a couple of minutes, so cool.

But my brother topped me. He also attended a different charity golf tourney and not only got to meet a number of ex-Bears, but he actually smoked a blunt with Jim McMahon.

Nothing surprises me from the Punky qb......lol

I met him myself at a locsl casino back in the 90s for a greet meet.........he kinda was an arrogant dick........

Jay Hilgenberg......greatest center Bears have ever had......I always thought he was HOF material.
Played 13 season,11 with daBears.......7x ProBowl 2 1st team All-Pro.
Another one who blocked for no.34 on his way to the HOF......

[wood20ks]

Mark Bortz.....another staple olineman for the Bears in 80s.....he holds the Bears record for most playoff appearances.

Never forget John Madden when the bears played the saints and he would say that they used to play catch back to back.

[wood20ks]

Bill George........Drafted in 1951 out of Wake Forest,no.23 overall,made All Pto 8x and the ProBowl 8x........Inducted into the HOF in 1974........
He also led the NFL in points scored as a k,making 13-14 xps and 4 of 6 fgs.....

No.61.......had been retired.

 

[justanidiot]

I think this is my cue.

gotta disagree with this one, but I dont know the rules. Shouldnt this be players the organization drafted and not traded for? That puts Rivera over on this one.

Lol.....there are no rules.....only rule is post a player of number of days left till draft and leave a commentary........or just leave a message.......

Yes,Riverboat Ron should be ahead od of DT,but he was a favorite personal player of mine......DT was always a starter where as Ron was a backup lb'er,albeit it was one helluva lb'er corps he played behind on a SB team.......
