Jerry Angelo famously said he wanted a few solutions, and Tuesday, the Bears finally opted for one of the smartest: firing Angelo.
Yes, the man who spent a second-round pick on legendary Dan Bazuin is out.
Maybe Angelo ultimately gets to color it as a resignation. No one is sure, just as no one is sure whether this was George McCaskey’s first big move or if it was Ted Phillips doing something before the Bears’ new chairman made an even bigger decision.
But the man who brought you Cedric Benson when the Bears already had professional and productive Thomas Jones is done.
This is the first step towards regaining respectability for the Bears. Talent wins, and the Bears are sadly and obviously bereft of it.
