So it's the Bears job to control Briggs image?[/quote]

It is, kind of. Certainly it is within some employee's scope of employment at Halas Hall...not the full image, but how it is shaped in terms of Bear fan consumption[/quote]


So it's the Bears fault for paying him in good faith and for him deciding to "play the the thief"[/quote]

That is a different question.

However, to your point, they gave him approval to go to his restaurant opening days before opening day. They also let him sleep in meetings with punishment.

just playing the thief to the bitter end this year

He has been out for what, 8 weeks now. He was out for around that amount of time last year. Any semi thoughtful player would have spent some of that time considering his own football mortality and would relish laying some deepness on reporters after the last game for posterity. This fucker was asked for his thoughts and responded that he had nothing.

His restuarant abscense encapsulted everything that was wrong with this team. This guy really destroyed his legacy in my mind over the last two years with his lack of dedication. I'd say his future will include being Buffone to Urlacher's Butkus but he is not nearly as lovable as Doug and I imagine we will not see his ass again until he is scrounging for dollars after he blows his nestegg on foolish investments like restaurants not located in the city where you are best known.

Shove off Lance, your lack of leadership is astounding.

This was the original premise that this was somehow the management's fault.

Trestman gave him permission in his hierarchy of leadership fuck job that he was running.

No one shit on Lance Briggs. He shit on himself, as we both know that he had at least one teammate tell him what a horrible idea going to LA was.

Sacramento. Going to LA wouldn't have been nearly such a bad idea.

Tillman should always have a job in the organization waiting for him. I agree he has coaching potential.
