So if you don't understand the contract nor the injury, how can you rationalize cutting White? Without the information, why even postulate the next step?

I'm wondering what this will do for him on Madden this year. I may have to sim through the first season just to keep it realistic.

The very first post was asking about the contract and then there's three pages of people like you calling me stupid for asking about our options now that White might be a bust. Thanks for contributing to the topic I guess. :shrug:

Why don't you chill out. Obviously you're in a bad mood this morning or something. You're all over this message board talking down to everyone. We're all in the same boat here (assuming you are a Bears fan). The OP just asked a question. If you have answers (which it appears you do), it would be nice to share it in a more human fashion.

Fuctarded is believing this shit or thinking guys don't get paid when injured practicing. Teams can't even release an injured scrub without a 'settlement'. Only time a team can save some is when that injury is non football related, if they can and the bonus is technically already paid so not recovered without player culpability of having it happen outsides the confines of his contract like riding a bike when it's forbidden, going to jail or just retiring when healthy.

I click on the last page of this thread and there's 2 guys congratulating each other on making shit up.
If you cut him, you have this and next year to pay his entire bonus. It would cost $2-3m more per year in cap space to cut him than to keep him over the next 2 years. As for his cap hit, his deal is guaranteed so unless he's done something away from football to limit his career, cutting him saves us nothing and only accelerates portions of his deal to make it more toxic to the current cap. I wouldn't be surprised if the OP knew this and wanted to see how many would twist in the wind.
A good shin joke beats a bad facts post every time.
I take that back.
Bad shin jokes beat them as well.

Wait, so these two come in here crying "troll" and criticizing posters but are just trolling? I need more coffee. ..

Listen, I know a lot of people are upset about white, but I'm not interested in the whole bitch fest. When life hands me lemons, I try to find some ice tea and make an Arnold Palmer. I look for solutions, not more problems. You guys can call me stupid all u want, but if exploring options is stupid, you have nothing to contribute to this thread but negativity and there's plenty of other threads for that. Try being constructive if you're gonna criticize people for looking for a silver lining, otherwise you are just a hypocrite.

I also said they can be quirky. Some have a habit to be troublesome because the body isn't treating it like a true break but rest is a big deal and he's been walking on it. It was a suggestion, not a proclamation. 'LIKELY' Fucked up may be strong but it's intended to mean that full resting of it may have been a better course. Force on a stress fracture can destabilize the healing but it's difficult to determine. They can behave oddly. This may have been the team or White wanting to get back asap and making it worse. Maybe not but it definitely wasn't put up in a cast.

This. I had a heel stress fracture and while effectively healed well enough to function was noticeable for well over a year. Didn't show up in the first x ray and was shown to circle the entire heal bone on the next one..after it decompressed.

What the hell is the problem with our Bears and first round picks? I swear the team is cursed, no matter the GM, no matter the position
And the reason why I fear a CUTLER replacement try that may take decades.

The guy suffered a season ending injury doing a rough equivalent of walking to the store to get a gallon of milk and a loaf of bread........How can this not be cause for concern? Can someone say China Doll? If he was a horse..............

After the CBMB, it started out good. Back in the day you could come here and someone would post damn near every single internet article written about the bears. People would chime in with good football info. It's just kind of went down hill since then. We've lost some key posters. There have been too many thread derailed by pissing matches. But you can still find good information here, it just takes a little more time. All in all this site is still one of the better Chicago Bears message boards if you are willing to sort through the bullshit. Ironically, it's the freedoms of this site that we all enjoy that also lead to it's downfall.

There is a "too much whining" thread on the 2nd page for that. This thread is for not reading the OP, then calling it stupid.
