Brian Urlacher Twitter Photo Create a Caption

Brian Urlacher posted a little pic to Twitter to let everyone know that he’s out there training and getting ready for the 2013 season. It’s a subtle move by the veteran middle linebacker but there are some multiple messages you can derive from this simple little tweet:

Can’t wait for the season to start-BU #gettingitdone snip.ps/gitd

— Brian Urlacher (@BUrlacher54) March 3, 2013

First, he’s letting everyone know that he plans on playing in 2013. In case you thought he might retire, it’s not happening. By doing this, he accomplishes point #2, putting pressure back in the Bears’ court. When word leaked last week that the Bears and Urlacher’s agents had met and the Bears “made it clear that they would like to have Urlacher back” I have a strong suspicion that it was the Bears or their people that leaked that info. It’s a way to setting up some deniability so if talks don’t go well, the team can say they wanted Urlacher back but his price was too high or he didn’t want to be back. Posting the photo and saying he’s ready for next season, Urlacher puts some pressure back on the Bears.

The last thing that Urlacher tries to show is that he’s training and healthy. That indicates he’s ahead of last season’s offseason program when he was sidelined all offseason and couldn’t get his knee right. This is important to Bears fans but more important for any team considering Urlacher. If the Bears decide to go another direction, maybe to have a clean “break” from the Lovie era, Urlacher still has 31 other possible suitors. Showing them he’s working out may add to his value.

To wrap up this post, I’d love to see you Create a Caption for the picture. Let’s have a little fun at Urlacher’s expense.

I haven’t done a Create a Caption in a while and couldn’t think of a better photo from the Bears’ 13-7 victory over the Lions than this photo of Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford, who was sacked late in the ballgame and came up with a face full of grass. If you’re new to Create a Caption, it’s pretty simple. I provide the photo, you provide the funny, sarcastic or insightful caption. Fire away in the Comments.

It’s been well documented already that Jay Cutler had a pretty rough night in Green Bay on Thursday night, getting sacked seven times. The man who accounted for about half of those sacks was Packers outside linebacker Clay Matthews. For this week’s Create a Caption, I could think of no better photo than this one. In case you’re new to Create a Caption, I provide the picture, you provide the funny, silly and crazy captions.

I was scrolling through the picture from Bears camp in Bourbonnais and noticed a theme and thought it would make for a good “Create a Caption” post. You know the drill. I post the pictures, you post the funny, sarcastic, ironic or just plain dumb captions. Have at it!
