No butt hurt here. It's business.
So your idea of running a business is to give away your best assets for things you have very little odds of replacing them with?
If this is this staff's idea of needed problems to get rid of and worthy compensation for it there's going to be rebuilding needed but there won't be anything to rebuild with.
If they bring in Tebow or Orton to save us we'll know what's up.
Marshall's worth, 2 2nd rounders to Miami with the GF incident hanging over his head, 2 3rd rounders to the Bears with the wife incident and the NYC lying bitch hanging over his head, 1 5th rounder to Jets with no incidents other than he did some shows?
I get that some of you don't like him and are bigoted about "mental problems", but as you said, it's a business.

Pace is too eager to start the rebuilding, reminds me of Jerry Krause pushing everyone out the door. We have a better coaching staff, why not wait, until someone get injured on another team and try to get more for him, Whats the rush?

Jeffery wasn't that great. I think he's a outstanding #2 but the guy doesn't do anything amazing. Yes, he can make some great catches. But he doesn't break tackles, doesn't have speed and isn't playing like a #1.

Well, yeah, i actually do have "IRL" experience in turning around and building companies, and i agree 100% with this move. BM is just one player, analyzing his past production, his place in the pantheon of great Bears WRS (lol), are irrelevant. If he's not part of the winning future - which no one can believe he is - then WTF would you want him to stay? Go be a better bottom-dweller in our division? We blow with BM, and worse without him. Once you blow it doesn't really mater in which degree.

I only half agree. he may not be the answer at #1, and we do need someone with speed, but he is still a pretty impressive WR.

Actually, we are years late to the party in starting our rebuild. Pace is my boy so far.

At least you R-Tards will stop acting like you know what a WR corps is.

The Chicago media still shaming Marshall after he's gone is nothing short of pathetic.

I don't care if he's different. I wouldn't have bitched if he stayed. I just understand why he's not. I don't recall the other guys on your list not showing up for games. You're just rationalizing a bunch a shit and talking out of your ass. I liked the Marshall signing and his play until last year. It's not his play that's an issue. If you don't get it or agree, that's fine but those make believe extreme non-examples are juvenile. Jesus, the guy has a pattern of wearing out his welcome yet somehow this is not his fault. Somebody's got blinders on and it's not the fans you referred to. The ESPN documentary thing, the Cutler thing, the locker room thing, the knowing better than coaches how to practice thing, the insistence on continuing to do the show thing. Consider that the show may be an off day but Mr Team was taking plain rides and sitting behind a desk instead of getting his ankle up or worked on.
The reasons for not retaining him are obvious. If you don't think them serious enough in a team sport to warrant a trade for a new regime that doesn't want to deal with it, you're entitled but don't make nonsense extrapolations. It's not like Gase doesn't know what he would be getting into both good and bad. If we kept him, I wouldn't bitch but for a staff that's trying to instill team to one that's lost a bit of it, losing a member that throws his QB under the bus, calls a guy that stands up for himself 'only a kicker' and basically goes mental because he's unhappy about his and the teams production, I get it. You don't get better play out of teammates by calling them out and belittling them in the media. You get self satisfaction and dissidence. Rip your coworkers or the guy above you and see if they want to help you out. Way different than your boss ripping a few.

I have a mentally handicapped daughter. I respect what Marshall has done with his obvious issues but that comment is basically admitting that it's affecting things. It's like saying someone is 'bigoted' against blind people because they can't catch a ball. The guy gets paid a shitload of money. If a team doesn't want to manage him, or deal with it, it's their prerogative. No need for name calling.
You know what, Fuck it. Have a nice week, guys. I'm out until we sign somebody. I'm a bit tired of internet extremism.

Not eager enough, considering a certain someone is still on the roster.

Drafting Cedric Benson as a viable upgrade to Jones - and the ensuing trade - trumps this situation by a long shot.

Your comment would make sense except just about everyone in the NFL is "blind" but undiagnosed. You think Suh & Raiola are sane?
If there's a mental issue to get rid of Marshall over it's that his treatment for BPD has taken away some of his drive, he even he has admitted to that.
Name calling???? Bigoted is a word with a well defined meaning. That definition fits. Some people think "mental illness" and instantly jump to thinking "unsafe", "crazy", "danger".
That must've struck home for you to take offense. Perhaps instead of trying to play the victim you should work on not being a bigot.
