Victory Monday
There were several enjoyable aspects to the Bears' Victory over the Vikings.
1. A Bears' Tight End that catches passes and even scores TDs!
2. Tim Jennings Pick-6
3. Another 4th quarter drive lead by Jay Cutler.
But if you know me, the thing that I enjoyed most about the victory:
4. Devin Hester: 249 return yards!! The Best!!!

Weekend Highlights
1. Second row behind the Mississippi State bench. The Bulldogs started the game with 4 freshmen, but any win for Loyola is a good win. The Horizon League should be entertaining this year.
Loyola Defeats Mississippi State
2. Butler's defeat of Indiana puts DUKE in the #1 spot in the basketball polls.
Not quite making up for the low light at Soldier Field on Sunday. I apologize to Brian Urlacher, as I obviously was the reason that the Bears lost.

Monday Morning Ramblings
2 Big Ten Championship will feature a 7-5 Wisconsin team. Nice job, Big Ten. Once the Big Ten suspended both Penn State and Ohio State, they should have realigned the Division. Here's hoping that Bucky lose the championship game and then loses it's Bowl game to finish at 7-7.
3. Some people are feeling sorry for Gene Chizik- really!! Poor guy is going to keep getting paid by Auburn to do nothing (which is pretty much what he did the last two years). The guy is an awful coach- some booster bought him Cam Newton and he wins the National Championship. Don't make him a good coach.
4. No one has played the early season schedule that DUKE has- Kentucky, Louisville, Minnesota and VCU. Should be #1 or #2 in the polls right now. Thankfully unlike college football, the champion in this sport will be determined by a playoff.
5. NIU- the best college football team in the state!! It look like the Illini hired the wrong MAC coach last season.

Morning Dose of K
Marquess Wilson Leaves Washington State
Washington State has asked Pac-12 to independently investigate Wazzu WR Marquess Wilson allegations, Larry Scott said

2 Lakers go with Mike D'Antoni over Phil Jackson? Hoping HM can explain this one to me.
3. DUKE v. Kentucky tomorrow night. If the Blue Devils do not play markedly better than they did against Georgia State in its opener, this should be a fairly easy double digit victory for the Wildcats. Point Guard play looks like a weakness right now for Duke.
4. Da Bears- well that sucked. Even after 4 first half turnovers and losing Jay Culter at halftime, this was a very winnable game. If Jay is not cleared to play, can the Bears beat San Fran with Jason Campbell at QB?

Kyle Orton Returning to Chicago?!
On the (second?) biggest bar night of the year, will Kyle be returning to Chicago?
Waiver deadline approaching, but if no one claims him on waivers then we may not know for a while if the Bears have signed Kyle to a free agent deal. So, the Cutler from Denver trade is looking even better for the Bears, huh?
UPDATE: Being reported that the KC Chiefs have been awarded the waiver claim on Kyle Orton.

Thank you, Bob Costas
Bob Costas last night during halftime of the Sunday Night game!
"In Chicago today, as the Bears routed the Lions, Devin Hester did what he does better than anyone ever has -- he returned a punt 82 yards for a touchdown. This was Hester's 17th career kick return for a score, punt and kickoff runbacks combined. Make it 18 if you throw in a 108-yard reversal-of-fortunes return of a missed field goal; 19 if we're counting postseason, as Hester sliced through the Colts on the opening kickoff of Super Bowl XLI, after which, Tony Dungy, a very smart man, reminded himself of that fact and didn't kick to him again.
Which brings up this question: Why does anyone ever kick to Hester? And why would anyone ever turn their back or leave their seat when someone does?
Here is one of the most electrifying performers in NFL history, who hasn't just followed, but, in his specialty, has gone beyond the likes of Travis Williams; Billy “White Shoes” Johnson; the still active Josh Cribbs; Brian Mitchell, who held the record until Hester zoomed past him; and even Hester's revered Bears predecessor, a player for the ages named Gale Sayers.
Now some of those players, most certainly including Sayers, did other things better than Hester, who doubles as a wide receiver. But when it comes to running back kicks, he's the best the League has ever seen. And at 29 and in good health, he's likely to put more distance between himself and everyone else on the list.
Which raises another question, can you make the Hall of Fame essentially as a special teams player?
Jan Stenurud is the only pure kicker in the Hall. There's no pure punter there, Ray Guy's many proponents notwithstanding. If there is to be a Hester candidacy, whatever he's done as a receiver is incidental. He'd make it for stuff like this (video of kick returns), and when somebody's the best the game has ever seen at what they do, really, how can you keep him out?"

Peter King's MidSeason NFL Awards
Devin Hester- Punt Returner
With a punt and a kick return for touchdown in the first seven games, Hester is polishing his resume for Immortalville. Remains a mystery why anyone would kick to the man.Read more: http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2011/writers/peter_king/11/03/midseason.awards/index.html#ixzz1d2bE8TH9
Immortalville? Sounds like King thinks he is a Hall of Famer.

Hall of Fame Weekend: Richard Dent
On Saturday, Richard Dent, Super Bowl XX MVP, will make it three members of the 1985 Chicago Bears defense in the Hall of Fame (Dan Hampton, Mike Singletary and Dent). A well deserved honor for Dent and further evidence of the greatest NFL defense ever.
Congrats!
