Before we get to all the Bears links, let’s take a moment to congratulate the Chicago Blackhawks on a remarkable series win over the Detroit Redwings, overcoming a 3-1 series deficit and a horrible call late in regulation to come back and win the series in overtime of Game 7. There’s no more fitting way to usher the Wings out of the Western Conference. Next up for the Blackhawks, the defending champion LA Kings. Oh and by the way, the remaining four teams left in the postseason are the last four Stanley Cup winners. Pretty awesome.
On to the links…
This is from last week, but it’s a pretty good read about the relentless Marc Trestman and how he’s coaching up Chicago Bears quarterbacks. And I learned a new word: inculcate.
If you’d like to see highlights of OTA’s from last week, there’s this video from the Bears website. I dig the funky music. I think it’s a Canadian band. Marc Trestman’s favorite.
Dan Pompei answered questions in his mailbag. So did my friend Adam over at Bears Huddle.
Charles Tillman is hosting a bowling event next week to benefit his Cornerstone Foundation. Get your tickets. Do it now or face the Peanut Punch!
Rotoworld re-watched all of Alshon Jeffery’s 400+ snaps from 2012. They were not all that impressed. But what the heck do they know anyway? They only scout players for a living.
Tweet of the day comes from Coach Trestman’s daughter Sarahanne:
