Let me
first take this opportunity to gloat over the fact that I, and not Rick
Morrissey, was totally right about the Bears' first-round pick.
However, I can do better than that today because Rick apparently is
determined to crank out an even stupider column this week. And he just
may have succeeded!
This week's cannon fodder is entitled "Heredity Made Long Easy Choice for Bears." If you couldn't gather from the title what it's about (in which case, thanks for reading, Telander!), Morrissey is boldly claiming that the only thing Emery saw in Kyle Long was his dad's last name. As ever, his disjointed thoughts are in italics.
I don’t want to minimize the work that Bears general manager Phil Emery and his staff did in preparation for the draft, the hours they put in and their lack of anything resembling a personal life the last year or so.
