Filed under: Bears , NFC North , NFL Media Watch I work with a diehard Chicago Bears fan who said what Lance Briggs said -- the day after the Thomas Jones trade went down. "Why trade away your best offensive player to make room for a guy who took himself out of a Super Bowl'?" The Bears linebacker said pretty much the same thing in a radio interview , in which he blasted Bears management over the...

Two days before training camp began, Lance Briggs recounted his last 17 tumultuous months that began with a declaration never to play for the Bears again and came full circle after he signed a six-year, $36 million deal this off-season. A mysterious car crash and an ugly paternity battle in between only added to the turmoil the veteran linebacker hopes to avoid in the future.

When Bears camp opened yesterday, it seemed like everyone would be happy with their contracts. First round pick Chris Williams was able to agree to a deal just before camp began, Brian Urlacher got the new contract he wanted, Lance Briggs got paid, and Tommie Harris was locked up long-term. That’s why it was a [...]

Filed under: Bears , NFC North , Chicago There was a pretty stark contrast between the way Tommie Harris negotiated his deal with the Bears and the way that his defensive brethren Brian Urlacher and Lance Briggs have dealt with the team. There were no threats, Harris even said if he were franchised it wouldn't be a big deal , and a lack of ill will which undoubtedly led to the quick resolution of...

The Chicago Bears three time Pro Bowl defensive tackle Tommie Harris is a study in contrast with teammate Lance Briggs. Harris demanded and got a four year $40 million extension to his contract with the Bears. He did it without trashing his team. He did it without declaring a refusal to ever play for Chicago again. He [...]

Well NFL agent Drew Rosenhaus has struck again. Yes, the same Drew Rosenhaus that’s had Chad Johnson, Terrell Owens, Javon Walker, Lance Briggs, and others hold out of training camp, looks to be advising Arizona Cardinal wide receiver Anquan Boldin to hold out as well. As fans we can’t completely understand the importance of training camp. [...]

Once again, it’s interesting how things play out. Early last year Lance Briggs was saying he would do “everything that’s within his power” not to play for the Bears. Not only did he wind up signing a one-year deal with Chicago, but then he signed a multi-year deal recently. All the while [...]

So as early as a week ago and as late as yesterday everybody from papers to blogs to teammates were sure that MLB Brian Urlacher would skip the Bears mandatory camp.

Briggs was prepared to wear Urlacher's No. 54 jersey as a show of support. "I'm surprised,...
