Bears Should Sign Tebow

How far outside the box can the rejuvenated Bears management think?

The time has come Chicago Bears. It’s time to ignore the media. It’s time to upgrade your club at little cost. It’s time. Tebow time.

You’re kidding. Nope:

Tebow is a winner. He will run through a wall for you. He is tough as nails. Best of all, you’d be playing with house money. What’s the harm? You haven’t won the whole shebang since 1985. So if you brought Tebow in, the worst case scenario would be, well, status quo. A great sports city still yearning for that elusive second shuffle.

Besides, consider the situation:

Right now, after bidding adieu to Jordan Palmer, the Bears are left with Cutler and journeyman Josh McCown as their only signal callers. Adding Tebow to the mix at little cost is pure gravy. It can only help. You can have a man with the same amount of playoff wins as Cutler for next to nothing.

So Bear down. You have nothing to lose.

Was Mitt Romney Right?

It’s spelled out here, in detail, a story of media manipulation and weakness if not malevolence.

The media?

Jennifer Rubin, the conservative Washington Post blogger who became Romney’s most outspoken advocate in the press, accused members of the news media of failing to take the Republican’s arguments seriously, while allowing the incumbent skate through the race untouched.

“As for the media, they are the least self-reflective people I know,” Rubin said. “The left-leaning media has carried the president’s water faithfully, eschewing the least bit of critical analysis. Now they don’t like the result?

Not sure about how much some of them don’t like it, but the lemming instinct remains.
