30 November, 2009 (12:44) | Chicago Bears | By: Stormin' Norman Disciple

I was just sitting around thinking, “Hey, what could make this Bears season even worse?”  With the poor play on both sides of the ball, an embattled stubborn coach being stabbed in the back by ownership, and a bleak future with the Bears having dealt their 1st and 2nd round picks for next season, there [...]

Jay Cutler Will Make You Forget About Orton In More Ways Than One

14 April, 2009 (11:28) | Chicago Bears | By: Stormin' Norman Disciple

Kyle Orton was a very solid quarterback that looked like he could be decent for a while in this league.  Trading him for Jay Cutler didn’t cause much of a problem for Bears fans, however, seeing as that Cutler looks like he could be a great franchise quarterback for years to come. That was on [...]

Kyle Orton made an appearance at an Iowa middle school today.  This is from the Des Moines Register (via Deadspin).  Maybe its his bowl cut or maybe its the chin strap, but something about Orton is just so sexy.
