Brian Urlacher situation is tricky business for Bears :: CHICAGO SUN-TIMES :: Sports

The Bears have so many players who want new deals (Harris, Hester, Gould, even Briggs is allegedly complaining). They're a mess

I don't care, because there haven't been any rumors about him showing up here. I'll bet if I started a thread and posted some sort of BS link, rumoring him to be coming here, it would get the same attention and responses the CJ threads have (until folks found out it was bogus).

That being said, Urlacher needs to play under his current contract. Sound to me like his agent/s trying to get paid one last time before his injuries catch up to him. Also convenient that the Bears have $ 16M of cap space. The tactics many agents use are sickening (I know the teams are not saints either).

I have more respect for CJ, I know money is always an issue, but I don't think him wanting out of Cincy is solely about money.
