Have I mentioned how happy I am that KC Johnson has replaced the semi-coherent David Huh as the Bears beat writer this year? And not just because KC backs up my assertion that Hutchinson is going to get waived. Just read this. Unlike anything Huh writes, it actually makes sense.

And if you think I’m being hard on Huh, remember that I’m a Notre Dame fan and I had to suffer through his crap at the South Bend Tribune for years before he ever got to Tribune Tower.

Don Pierson points out that Orton’s hardly more inexperienced than Rex Grossman, and that when you consider his competition this year and the Bears’ inept history at QB, Orton’s not much of a “risk.”

Carlos Zambrano tops himself, week after week. Not only did he outpitch Josh Beckett yesterday, he started the rally in the seventh. Carlos is the man.

This just in: Cubs’ fans love Ryne Sandberg, and he loves them back.

Mariotti puts down the doughnut to throw a wet blanked over Kyle Orton. As if that was necessary. I don’t think anybody thinks he’s Dan Marino circa 1983. We’ll take Deiter Brock circa 1985. OK, maybe not.

The Wizard of Roz is optimistic about Kyle Orton.
