Yeah, the Bears are pretty cheap. Not only that, Jerry Angelo is an insecure little bitch (and I don't use that word often). Look at the facts

- They lowball Lovie Smith on a contract extension
- They trade Thomas Jones because Jerry Angelo wants to show the world he made the right choice in drafting Benson.
- He turns down the Redskin trade claiming he doesn't want to be bullied by Briggs. What man, secure in himself, would announce that publicly.
- They let Ron Rivera, one of the best DC's in the league go because they think he'll cost to much.
- The reason Lovie Smith was hired in the first place had more to do with cost then credentials (though I will go on record and say he was definately qualified).

You deserve better Chicago. They did such a good job builidng a team but now there cheap nature is coming back to bite them in the ass.
