brian urlacher

  • Question:-Brian Urlacher?
    why is brian urlacher not in the pro bowl he leads the bears in tackles he has 3 ints 5 sacks 1 ff 2 recover fumbles and like 3 huge tip passes and he played a hell of a game on MNF

    Answer:-Urlacher did not deserve a Pro Bowl nomination. He had a good game against Minnesota, but he has not had a good year. I am a Bear fan.
  • Question:-Is it true Brian Urlacher wears a metal cup?
    Brian Urlacher has had a lot of groin injuries in the past years. Is it true he wears a metal cup?

    Answer:-I've definitely got to agree with 'G'
  • Question:-Do you think Steve Nash would wet his pants if he saw Brian Urlacher?
    LeBrick, Noringash, Kobrick would all pee their pants if they saw Brian Urlacher, the 2nd greatest LB of all time.

    Answer:-No one cares
  • Question:-Should I start James Harrison or Brian Urlacher?
    James Harrison against the Browns or Brian Urlacher against the Seahawks?

    Answer:-this is a coin flip. when i used to play fantasy with IDPs, i would make my decision by asking myself "if either one of them got a pick or recovered a fumble, which would be more likely to return it for a TD?" OR i'd ask "if there's a fumble on the ground/tipped ball in the air, which one wold be more likely to get the ball?" i would say Urlacher. truth is, these IDP decisions rarely matter that much, and this is a bigger crapshoot than picking offensive players. i'd just drop one of them so i don't have to make a decision every week
  • Question:-Question about a Brian Urlacher authentic jersey?
    I bought a authentic Brian Urlacher home jersey for about 159 -orig 250. it has spandex side, and is double stiched. Its all real. But, is it just older? because i seen a jay culter jersey in a new game picture and the top chest stiching was different, and the spandex was higher. All help is appreciated.

    Answer:-Many teams change jerseys on yearly basis so there easily could be new jerseys out!
  • Question:-Why does everyone think Brian Urlacher is so good?
    Everyone is ranting and raving about Brian Urlacher and I am tired of it. I have watched him play and all I ever see is him getting run over or juked out or something else like that. And please, nobody tell me, oh hes never been run over! Or hes never been juked out! Because there is a very nice clip of him getting run over by the Bus when there were already two guys tackling the bus and he was in perfect tackling position, still managed to get run over. And he got juked out by Tom Brady, not even a scrambling quarterback, a slow quarterback. And dont say those are the only times because if you get juked out by a quarterback, a running back must make you miss everytime, and it seems like everytime I see him trying to tackle a stronger back he is going the wrong way, backwards. So tell me, fans of Urlacher, what makes him so great? Or do you agree with me that he is not that good at all, that it is the team that surrounds him and the fact that he plays in the NFC, JV if you will.

    Answer:-Because he is good. He played safety in High School so he brings the pass-covering ability to the Middle Linebacker position. In his beginning seasons, he was the first LB to become a threat at both the run and pass. And as many people say, he is fast. It's true, he can stare down and just take out Michael Vick with no problem. And he's an inspiration. He led the team huddle talks that got Chicago the Victory in Arizona. And he stipped the ball from Edgerin James (who used to never fumble). So yeah, he's good. Some say he will go into the Hall of Fame his first year. That's L.T. and Junior Seau good. But don't worry, your boy Ray Lewis might get into the HoF, someday.
  • Question:-Just how good is Brian Urlacher compared to almost any other football player?
    I live near Chicago and I often see the number 54 for Urlacher on most football jerseys, especially when I occasionally visit Chicago.

    I guess this guy is one of the most aggressive, energetic, skillful players on the field when it comes tackling and taking someone down.



    I must admit when I saw that Bears/Cowboys game I think
    2 weeks ago, he did sack the quarterback twice.

    Answer:-He's above average. His speed is his advantage. Which he is starting to lose, so he's sliding.
  • Question:-Is Brian Urlacher taking a page from the TO hand book?
    TO used the media to get raises & trades, Chad Johnson read his book & is using it AND now we have Brian Urlacher in the news.

    Rumors have him threatening to retire, he wants a trade, he wants more money but he denies it all BUT, the direction this team is going can you blame him for wanting out?

    does he want out or not? where would he fit in"

    Answer:-Urlacher would not look right in anything other than a Bears jersey. But, this is a business, so who knows what will happen. I don't see any reason why I wouldn't take him at his word, which is that he wants to remain in Chicago. Other than a handful of teams (Pats, Colts, Chargers), the NFL has become an extremely fickle league. The Bears were in the Super Bowl just 2 years ago. This situation kinda reminds me of Strahan last season. He thought about retirement, though most people believed he was just holding out for more money (which he still might have been). Nobody picked the Giants to do anything. They had a terrible second half the prior season, backed into the playoffs and lost to Philly in the first round, then Tiki retired, they don't pick up any big free agents, they hire a new defensive coordinator and then the Strahan thing. And what happened? They won the Super Bowl. Get them a good QB, and who knows what the Bears could do next season? I doubt that Urlacher would want out because he doesn't think the Bears can win.

    But if they want to trade him to the G-men, that would be cool with me. =P
  • Question:-How much is a Brian Urlacher autographed picture worth?
    The picture is framed in a black frame and is in mint condition. It was signed on an offical bears nfl picture of Brian in his defensive stance.

    Answer:-I'll give you a nickel. I need something to wipe with.

    Seriously, you ought to study this on e-bay and sports memorabilia sites first, it's probably worth a fair amount, $50 or more maybe framed. Unframed Urlachers go for as little as $25 to $30 in pristine condition. Is it addressed to anyone or does it have a particular handwritten message on it? If so, that actually devalues it.
  • Question:-Would Jay Cutler and Brian Urlacher be toted as best if they won the Super Bowl?
    Do you think people would say Jay Cutler is the best QB (like people have been saying about Aaron Rodgers), and Urlacher is the best linebacker (like people have been saying about Clay Matthews)?
    Or are the Bears just not lovable like the Packers are?

    Answer:-Yes, with the exception of Eli Manning, the best quarterback every offseason is the guy who won the Super Bowl. Brady and Manning are constants, but look at what winning the big one has done for Roethlisberger, Brees, and Rodgers. It seems to give them the jump from good to elite. If the Cowboys or Rams couldnt win it though, I would like to see the Bears go all the way, Cutler deserves it after all the crap he's gotten and I've always liked Urlacher.

nyc weather

  • Question:-NYC Weather....?
    isnt it hot today?? 75 degrees.....

    Answer:-oh yes! yes! yes...its extremy hot!
  • Question:-What boots should I take for NYC cold weather?
    Hi - will be moving to NYC the last week of January. Moving from hot West Texas. I'm used to wearing just thick socks and leather boots in cold weather which isn't too often. Can you please recommend what type of shoes I should have handy? Do I really need to buy snowboots from brands like Sorel or what about Wellies? I'm a bit lost as to the conditions, please help me out! Thanks!

    Answer:-I bought myself a pair of Salomons last year. They're heavenly on a cold day. They're also waterproof, which comes in handy.

    Wellies are good for rainy days, but I wouldn't wear them to protect from the cold. That's not what they're intended for.

    Whatever you end up buying, please make sure that you get something with a good sole. It can be icy here and you'll want to minimize the amount of times you fall on your butt.
  • Question:-What kind of clothes will I need for NYC weather in January?
    I know it's going to be cold but how cold we talkin here? Like pants with a coat? or is it ridiculously cold where I need long john's; feet warmers; and a super-heavy coat? I'm from Houston, TX... I don't know what to expect. please help me. Also, if there is any piece of apparel you think is essential for surviving cold weather please let me know.

    Thanks!

    Answer:-well, right now its really cold.
    I live in NY and a snow storms coming this weekend (:
    But yeah. Typical clothes for us right now are a sweater with a coat, gloves, hat, jeans/sweat pants & yesss feet warmers. its really cold.
  • Question:-what to wear in 70 degree weather in nyc?
    ill be outside in nyc all day to see the pope. it should be 70 degree weather all day. what should i wear?

    Answer:-Dress in layers. I'd say if your walking around dress for warm weather. pants/ tank top. NYC always feels warmer then it is cause of the pollution and crap.
  • Question:-How does Chicago weather compare to NYC?
    I'm from close to NYC and moving to Chicago. How different is the weather there? I know winter lasts longer and it snows more, but when does it start to get hott and is it more/less humid? I HATE humidity! What temp does it have to be for people to bust out the summer clothes? Like how in the Northeast people swing into shorts, tank tops and sandals even if it's only 70

    Answer:-Having lived in both here is my view: winters are much colder in Chicago and do last longer. Be prepared for really cold weather and buy long johns. Spring and fall are the same but summer can be better in Chicago if you live downtown and don't get the humidity the burbs gets. The wind blows nicely to keep the city cooler but the burbs are humid. NYC seems humid, subways especially, but this depends on where you are.
    All said, NYC is more even. Oh and the reason it's called the windy city is because of the politics, not the wind. Chicago always seems to have more wind tunnels downtown than NYC too.
  • Question:-Does the weather in NYC affect the stock market?
    It's been mostly gray skies and cold for the last two weeks.
    Would a spell of good weather help the market?

    Answer:-Intersting that you ask that. The thinking behind academics is that the markets are efficent and data will affect the stock market. But there is something called the cloudy day effect, which says that on cloudy day, markets dont perform well. There is also a hem line effect. When the fashion designers decrease the hem line of a skirt, markets typically perform well. There is also a january effect, which says that small cap stocks out perform in month of january.

    In short, it very well could be that the cloudy day does have an affect.
  • Question:-How is the weather in NYC at the end of April beginning of May?
    I'll be in NYC from April 30th to May 4th.
    I'm just wondering how the weather is, so I know what kind of clothes to pack.

    Thanks in advance!
    :)

    Answer:-The weather changes here so quickly from day to day. It can be 40 and pouring (yesterday) to 60 and gorgeous (today.) The best thing to do is check weather.com before you leave, that will give you the most up-to-date forecast, as well as the upcoming 10-day forecast.
  • Question:-What was the weather like in NYC on September 11, 2001?
    With the tenth anniversary of 9/11 just a few hours away, I thought it would be interesting to know what the weather was like on that eventful day. Was it a cool day or a hot one? Was it a beautiful sunny day or a gloomy cloudy one? Does anyone here who was in NYC at the time remember what that day's weather was like?

    Answer:-Sunny, no clouds in sight and it was pretty cool. But when the towers collapsed the ash made it look like it was dark.
  • Question:-What is the real weather in NYC tomorrow afternoon?
    Yo. I dont wanna pack a bunch of stuff that I aint gonna wear, and the weather guy is always wrong, so what should I wear?

    Answer:-Weather is nice and warm
    Light jacket and no need to wear cold weather clothes
  • Question:-what is the weather in nyc in october and what to wear?
    im gonna be in nyc next wee and was wondering how the weather is and what types of clothes to bring.
    thanks

    Answer:-Weather: Spring in New York City is the best time to be in the city, without doubt. Spring usually means less humidity and temps between 50-80 degrees, though June occasionally sees a 90 degree day. An occasional humidity soaked heat wave can strike, but it usually feels nice the first time around. Spring is all about eating al fresco and enjoying the low humidity.
