Hey all,

Many of you know me as a Bulls fan first, but my Bears fandom has increased steadily throughout the past 4 or 5 years. I was never really hardcore about the Bears growing up, probably because they sucked, but we've made the playoffs enough recently where the casual fan has a legit reason to get excited. Thus, I've started to follow the team more often.

What Bears related websites do I need to bookmark and check on a regular basis? What's good for video highlights? Analysis? Favorite blogs? Even message boards.

Thanks in advance!

Welcome, HP. I don't hit the rumor sites with football nearly as much as I do with the Bulls - mostly because you don't have as many player-for-player trades in the NFL as you do in the NBA but I enjoy Brad Biggs' Sun-Times blog :

Come draft time, I'm all over nflnetwork's site and scout.com :
http://www.nfl.com/nflnetwork
http://profootball.scout.com/

There's a thousand sites that do mock drafts.

I remember posting a similar question around the draft and getting this response...

http://www.windycitygridiron.com is probably the best Bears blog.

For video highlights, just go to NFL.com or chicagobears.com.

Not sure about message boards. I haven't found any good outside message boards. The Bears have an official message board on their site but it's pretty ugly and it loads slowly. dabears.com has has a solid looking message board but there's not many people on there.

There's a thread under announcements with more links from the Bears and around the league.
