Kinda makes me sad
that we dont get to face him twice this year, say hello to matt forte

or this guy....

The move could prompt the Bears to try to sign an available veteran, such as Shaun Alexander or Travis Henry.

id love for them to sign Alexander
;D ;D

alexander I could see. Travis henry no. I think they just got rid of one headache no reason to add another.
Hey maybe the OTHER AP can turn out to be like his namesake

Bears fans WISH!

Look for them to give Alexander a shot...and for them to speed up Forte's learning curve.

dug his own grave on this one

Comes as no surprise to me. I figured it was going to happen.

I am just glad it was alcohol and not weed.

LOL! You would say that.

I'll never understand how athletes who work so hard (and get so lucky) to get to the professional level take risks like this?
One DWI - I can understand, people are going to screw up.
But how can you not learn your lesson and just higher a chaufer for the night out on the town?
Your driving a flashy car (most likely) so you have an even higher percentage of getting pulled over than a regular person, and on a weekend night, late hours, your chances are not in your favor to begin with.

It's a shame to see a career get thrown away like that.
I'm sure he'll get picked up from some team, but he won't be making top 10 pick type money.
What a dumbass.
He deserves whatever he gets.

There are some lessons that people just need to learn..you go out. you have fun. it's enjoyable to loose yourself to the high of partying and yer vice of choice.. but. be prepared to deal with the consequences. wether that be.. letting some1 else drive your new 50k car home.. or man up and call the !#%#$ cab.

Bensen.. well.. i guess some people need more hits from the learning stick then others..
