I doubt McHoodie finds it funny that his owner has been publicly questioning his personnel decisions.. no I don't think he is laughing at anything right now! And sorry Scrub, the fact that the Broncos got 2 1st round picks actually disproves your point: The rest of the league realized that a QB of Cutler's calliber hitting the FA market was a once in-a-decade opportunity.. and they were willing to pay appropriately and capitalize on that mistake. I am sure Scorpions felt the same way when they made the deal..

I am also sure Baltimore Colt fans were telling themselves the same line of self-pandering BS when that other 'prima-donna' QB John Elway came into the league, but refused to play for them. Like Cutler, Elway realized that would be stuck with a team and a system that simply wouldn't allow him to succeed.. Can't really blame either of them for wanting out. Even more interesting is that the Broncos 'paid' then almost the same price that the Bears 'paid' now for Cutler:

Elway: A starting QB, a 1st round OL and a 1st round pick.
Cutler: A starting QB, 2 2st round picks + some etcetera..

Clearly that was a very good long-term purchase by the Broncos, and considering that Cutler is several years ahead of Elway in his development as an elite QB (he is only 25 folks!) I am sure it will be also great long-term purchase by the Bears (and the Scorpions) as well...

Nice job McHoodie NOT!
