Living the low life
Tribune staff reporterThey made a contest of it. On a nationally televised Sunday night with their peers presumably watching, it seemed that was all the Bears were capable of doing. Avoid colossal embarrassment. Perhaps regain some lost respectability. But win? Against an...Tags: Sports, Troy Walters, James Williams, Mike Wells, Thomas Smith

Bears' signs positive
Tribune staff reporterWhile wide receiver Marcus Robinson was earning a standing ovation from the crowd of 36,535 Friday for his first touchdown catch of the exhibition season, the Bears were giving their strongest sign yet they are just about ready for the regular season to...Tags: NFL Preseason, Sports, Leon Johnson, Phillip Daniels, Todd McMillon

Behind the 8 ball
Tribune staff reporterFor a while, the Bears stayed close. Then, for the eighth straight week, it didn't matter. The Bears once again proved unable to make a play at a decisive moment to take control of a game, losing 21-16 to the St. Louis Rams on Monday night and tying a...Tags: Ricky Proehl, St. Louis Rams, Sports, Death, Leon Johnson

John Mullin's answers
All through training camp this summer all I heard about was how great Dez White looked. I was eagerly waiting this year to see the new and improved Dez White hit the field. After dropping a sure touchdown pass against Atlanta, and not doing much yet in...Tags: Dan Reeves, Sports, Virginia McCaskey, Paul Edinger, David Terrell

Gory details of OT demise
Tribune staff reporterDetails, details. If it's the new code word for bad habits that characterize losing teams, then at least that explained why it came out of the mouth of every Bear who chose to open his after Sunday's 33-27 overtime loss to Buffalo. Does a penalty on...Tags: Sports, Warrick Holdman, James Williams, Buffalo Bills, Entertainment

Robinson can't leap to conquer
Tribune staff reporterMarcus Robinson was the core of the Bears' offense in 1999 when his leaping catches helped produce nine touchdowns and a franchise-record 1,400 receiving yards. But Robinson's two chances for similar catches went for naught Sunday, a sign of something...Tags: Sports, Philadelphia Eagles, Daimon Shelton, Shawn Barber, Phillip Daniels

A muddle at quarterback
Tribune staff reporterBy that time, it was a moot point. Did it really matter who finished at quarterback for the Bears with 4 minutes 45 seconds remaining Sunday and the Vikings leading by 18 points? If you had heard Henry Burris talking afterward about possible overtime...Tags: Chicago Bears, Sports, Marty Booker, Olin Kreutz, Henry Burris

Humbling lesson in reality
Tribune staff reporterSo much for keeping up with the big boys. So much for playoff hopes dangling by a mathematical thread. Beating the Detroit Lions, as it turns out, doesn't mean much when you're playing a real playoff team. And easy schedule, easy conference or not,...Tags: Sean Harris, Sports, Alonzo Mayes, Grant Wistrom, Detroit Lions

No nod for Matthews
Tribune staff reporterAfter a 2-2 exhibition season, three lowly opponents and a 35-24 loss in the wrap-up Saturday night, the Bears figure they have at least one trump card to throw at Kansas City in the season opener two weeks from Sunday. They refuse to name their starting...Tags: Cade McNown, Curtis Conway, Quarterly or Semiannual Financial Statements, NFL Preseason, Chicago Bears

Interceptions, drops deluge soggy Bears
Tribune staff reporterA typically sloppy preseason game? Or a game typical of what will be a sloppy team? You make the call. Actually, the replay official did in reversing a safety after Pittsburgh's block of a Todd Sauerbrun punt and calling it a touchdown to give the...Tags: Chris Canty, NFL Preseason, Sports, Alonzo Mayes, Deshea Townsend

McNown gets positive review from his coach
Tribune staff reporterHe received his "Welcome-to-the-NFL, son" four plays into his pro career, a Colts sandwich that left Cade McNown picking himself up 9 yards behind the line of scrimmage and surely knowing what they meant when they warned him about the speed of pro...Tags: Chris Canty, NFL Preseason, Sports, Tom Carter, Indianapolis Colts

Banged up? Bang-up job
Tribune staff reporterThey are 3-2 and kings of the universe. A real team with serious goals, an agenda and an attitude. They are one victory short of their season total for each of the last two seasons, but you'd never know it. Never guess that this was the same team that...Tags: Gary Anderson, Basketball, Sports, James Williams, Tom Carter
