This is an update from the Chicago Bears last preseason game at halftime. Kyle Orton played the first quarter and a little of the second. He threw one interception and was 4/7 for 51 yards. The interception wasn't his fault, because LT John St. Clair made a bad play and left Orton exposed. Rex Grossman came in and played most of the 2nd quarter until the two minute warning. He went 5/7 with one touchdown...

Last year, we were Wrecks Grossman. But with Kyle Orton's ascension to starter , we feel the need to bench our fantasy football team name. But one can't draft without a kickass name.

Filed under: Bears , NFC North I don't pretend to be able to judge how attractive a man is. It's tough trying to figure out what women want. I do, usually, think I can spot an ugly dude, though. It doesn't matter one bit to his football play -- which is quite ugly at times -- but Kyle Orton just seems like an ugly dude to me. It's probably because of presentation, sure, but that's how he's chosen...

The goofy glasses are all that remain of the Charlie Steiner profile This has to be a first since the guy was 16. Our gut told us we’d never see the day when Charlie Steiner went without that sweet movie producer, trimmed beard. Charlie wasn’t sportin’ that grotesque Kyle Orton neckbeard crap. He put time into his [...]
