Is there some reason Peterson doesn't get the ball more often?

Michael, I am so annoyed by a** maggots that try to pass themselves off as objective analysys of Chicago Bears football. Your writeup s*cks like a $5 street walker. Why don't you leave it to an experience pro like or guy Gene here to break it down, instead of polluting his page with your BS link. No one has suggested Hanie is better than Cutler. No one has blown anything out of proportion. Please keep your trash in your own yard.

Now that I am done with that, Gene are you too ******* lazy to break it down for us here. If you'd quit hustling out at the bars every night, what is that place called R-Dee's?, and start working we could get some insight that some people here might find "intreaguing." Thank you. Now please delete this D-bag Michael's link.

Thank you.

Hey JW, actually I don't dig your crap. Thanks anyway though you butt munch.

Gene, why are you not listed as a Senior Writer? What is this scribe crap? Hell scribe? Might as well be a hack. You need a new titlee, bro.
