Answer this question and you may win yourself a free t-shirt!

I campaigned for the job about 3/4 of the way through the season for some obvious reasons. A) I have an enormous ego, and B) Ron Turner sucks at his job. However, I am still not sure what the best pitch line to the Bears would be.

All I got is something along the lines of:
“Hey, I’d do it for minimum wage so at least you’d finally get your money’s worth”
or
“At least my playbook includes plays designed after the Clinton administration”
….. so you can see why I need help. Post your suggestions in the comment section, on the boards, or email them to hosts@bearscast.com and see if you can win a free t-shirt.

Congratulations to the winner of the Bearscast “Most Overpaid Bear” contest: Duke

Here is his winning submission that was posted on the Bearscast forum

Let me the first to say Adam Archuleta. He is worth nothing, therefore by definition he is the most overpaid.

Overpaid ratio=salary/worth

As worth->0 overpaid ratio->∞

I am a nerd at heart and always partial to mathematics in sports. So Duke will get the first, hot off the press, Bearscast t-shirt as soon as production gets under way. If you’d like to get a t-shirt for yourself make sure you send an e-mail to hosts@bearscast.com and answer the follow question, “Why should I(Sean) replace Ron Turner?”

Well you might have heard it on the show but here is your official announcement of our first Bearscast contest of the new year.

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, tell us Who is the most overpaid Bear and why?
Post your answers on the boards, e-mail us at hosts@bearscast.com, or give us a call at (312) 239-0179
The more creative and amusing the better and the winner will receive their very own Bearscast T-shit (currently in production; picture coming soon)

Overpaid much?

When the season started, we ‘d pictured ourselves walking down state street celebrating a Superbowl victory. Now we will still walk down that same state street, but to only return that tie your kids brought for you on Christmas.

Just as Bears fans have felt after a tough loss, today loss  to the New York Giants 21-16 will led you to drink . Moving the Bears record to 5-7 on the year.

This loss hurts that much more when you see Detroit get off to a 6-2 start, with the help of two victories over the Bears. and to see them get run over 42-10 today. It just leaves a feeling in the pit of my stomach.

This game hurts even that much more due to Rex Grossman outstanding play today, but the coaches did not put the players in the position to succeed. Now we’re out of the playoffs and looking toward an off season that will bring changes around.

My choice is to remove Lovie Smith and call Bill Cowher
