The Bears are in Barney

The 2008 Chicago Bears are in Barney. You know from that line by Don Cheadle in Ocean's Eleven. Come on. They're in Barney. Barny Rubble... TROUBLE!!!!!!!

About 3 weeks from the start of the regular season and the Bears haven't figured out the following:
1. Who the starting QB is.
2. Who the starting WRs are.
3. Who the starting LT will be (and possibly RT if John Tait is moved back to LT).
4. Who the starting LG is.
5. Who the starting RB is (Forte is likely however).
6. Who is going to line up next to Tommie Harris at DT.

Even worse, the most inept organization in football not named the Cardinals or Raiders has the following concerns.
1. Is the guy we just paid #1 WR money a #1 WR.
2. WHat happens when both Mike Brown and Brandon McGowan get hurt (note, this is not an if, empirically this is a fact).
3. Our supposedly great defense gets shredded in the ground game (ala KC in the first preseason game).
4. That our coaching staff believes Trumaine McBride is a good corner and better than Ricky Manning.
5. THat our moron coaching staff believes Daniel Manning has any value (In my opinion he should go back to the Div. 3 school he came from).
6. That Kyle Orton is the next Trent Dilfer, except that he is much worse.
7. That our OL, even with a healthy Chris Williams is below average.
8. That Marty Booker sucks and shouldn't be playing with the 1st team offense. (I know Mark Bradley has been disappointing due to injury, but if they cut him for Booker I am going to freak out. Booker is done. BRadley at least shows great talent when healthy and he is young).
9. That the Fake Adrien Peterson should never, ever, be allowed to carry the rock (unless Forte, Jones, Pope or Wolfe are injured).
10. That Lovie Smith is a below average coach that seems to let his bias (players from the south, heart, or faith) get in the way of rational thought.

Ahhhhh. I can't stand this team as it is now. We are such an amateur organization. Its like we're the Washington Generals and everyone else is the Harlem Globetrotters. And don't even get me started on how the Bears couldn't foresee that Williams Injury or I-Truth's research on the Anghelo drafting since 2002. Aghhhhhhhhhhhhh!
