Cue the firestorm: Deadspin covered it , David Haugh wrote a column at the Tribune deriding Urlacher's comments and local sports radio blew up. Urlacher's criticism is now officially 'a thing', something worthy of addressing if only due to the carnage left in its wake.

Let's just get one thing straight: everyone is wrong. This is the classic battle not worth fighting for. Urlacher's comments aren't difficult to defend we'll get there , but they never needed to be said in the first place. What is Urlacher accomplishing, even hoping to accomplish? That the same less-than-reasonable people booing the Bears for heading into halftime down seven points will hear his words and change their behavior moving forward?

Urlacher has been the face of this franchise ever since he was drafted in Bears fans love him and Urlacher has rewarded the city with a Hall of Fame career. Don't blow this out of proportion: no one will boycott his Canton induction speech or take off their barbeque-strained No.

This will blow over, probably before the Cardinals game. But the point remains: there was no reason for Urlacher to criticize his own fans, even if he might have a point. To the best of my knowledge, the one time the boos really poured down was at the end of the half.

Jay Cutler had just thrown an interception which led to a Packers touchdown, putting Green Bay in position to head into halftime up The Bears got the ball back at the yard line with seconds left. Cutler threw a short pass to Forte and then the Bears let the clock run out. Well, why the hell was Soldier Field booing? Did Bears fans really think this punchless offense was going to travel 50 or 60 yards in seconds? Did they not just witness what happened the possession before, when Cutler's interception blew the chance of a tie game going into halftime?

Throwing the ball in that situation is something only a year old playing Madden would do. The Bears unquestionably did the right thing by running out the clock; there is no other argument.

Loading comments But he is so irate at what he just saw, he leaps out of his chair with the same first-step quickness he had as a young Bears linebacker chasing down Packers running backs. When we were playing, that tight end would be on his back. The explosion hardly was their last as they watched and suffered in relative privacy.

However, it played perfectly to their wheelhouse. A few hours later, the two throwback Bears from another era emerged, primed to hammer the Bears of this era. They did their show on location Sunday to a full house at Durbin's in Tinley Park. It has been decades since Buffone, who played from , and O'Bradovich, a fixture on the Bears defensive line from , played their last games, but the passion and competitive fire hardly has faded. Exhibit A: O'Bradovich quickly corrected a caller to the show who noted that the '85 Bears had the best defense of all time.

The '63 Bears were the best," said O'Bradovich, who was on that championship team. Buffone and O'Bradovich rejoice when the Bears win. Yet their vintage work comes after Bears defeats. Make no mistake, the former players whose first coach was George Halas take this personally.

The outrage spews out in full raw, unfiltered glory. Their dismantling of the Bears after Sunday's disaster might have been an all-time best, like watching their old teammate Gale Sayers score six touchdowns against the 49ers. Let your actions do the talking. You morons. Buffone got so agitated at one point, he knocked over his microphone when he pounded his fist on the table.

In between, Buffone and O'Bradovich litter the show with critiques calling the Bears "tomato cans," "soft as a grape," "garbage" and the ever-popular, "They couldn't play dead.
