Who was the last Bear suspended by the league? 

Post#1 » by emperorjones » Fri Sep 19, 2014 7:39 pm

:crazy: I can't remember. Tank Johnson was suspended by the Bears, but not sure if he was by the Bears. Jim Miller was suspended in 1999 for taking a banned substance that he claimed he didn't know would turn his arm into a thunderbolt....but I can't remember anyone else.

help please?

I believe Cedric Benson was suspended for boating while intoxicated. 2008 maybe?

Ahhh, Cedric Benson. That name brings back memories.... I wish I could say they were positive, but that'd make me a liar.

By the way... EXCELLENT thread... even if it is only a couple of posts deep. This really speaks volumes about the organization.

Hey dudes , ur forgettig about sam hurd. IDK if was offcially suspended but he got busted and the bears cut him.
Seems like this is their stance on trouble makers, if it requires a suspension, then ur cut.
Like that fullback we had rodriguez.

LOL! That is an EPIC one! A second life as a cocaine drug lord... yeah... that's pretty bad. I forget though, was he one of Angelo's last batch of FA's or one of Emery's first batch of FA's? Whether he was cut or not though... I think this should count. :)

Evan Rodriguez too. Good memory hole, Bearadonis.

Great point. Tank Johnson got cut even though it turned out he was under the legal limit and thus was not guilty of a DUI - the idea was that his judgment was bad, so bye bye.
