The greatest running back of all-time (David Boss-USPRESSWIRE)

Hello, Bear Goggles On readers.  My name is Keith Schultz and I have joined the staff here, and hope to give you plenty of information with some comedy sprinkled in.  Some quick introduction info for you.  I grew up in the south suburbs in a house full of Bears, Blackhawks, and Bulls fans with the battle lines drawn with my parents being White Sox fans while me and my brother have always been Cubs fans.  My favorite players growing up were Walter Payton and Michael Jordan.  I will argue with anyone that Payton was the greatest running back of all time, because he ran behind a horrible line for most of the early part of his career, and more importantly instead of running out of bounds he punished every would be tackler!

I have been a staff writer for Blackhawk Up for the past 6 months, and I’m excited to start writing about the Bears, their rivals, and helping give tips in survivor and confidence league picking.  It will be exciting to see if the Bears offense will be able to capitalize with all the new offensive weapons they have surrounded Jay Cutler with, and if Matt Forte and the organization will be able to come to terms, or will there only be 7.5 million reasons for Forte not to sit out the season.

I’m excited to join the team, enjoy reading any comments, and as always Thank you for reading!!
