[CBFF] ESPN - Ultimate Depth Chart: NFC North

[Steve Behrens]

>From what I've seen Tom,  there's a whole lot more 'tearing down' of
the Bears than there is 'Building up', and it's been going on for most
all of last season as well as this season.   Face it, to the majority
of the national media, for whatever the reason, the Bears are the team
they love to hate. Or, at the very least, one they would never, ever
consider gushing over....  Don't exactly know why that's come to be,
but that's the way I see it.
