A sad fucking day for Chicago sports. A class act was left off the roster, most likely intentional by Angelo - I'm sure he wants someone who can play for then next 4-5 years with the young guys rather than paying a premium for a guy who might last 1-2 at best. However, Kreutz is and always be a class act. Much like Frank Thomas was when he got axed from the Sox, one day this will all blow over and he will come back into the organization and get the recognition he truly deserves, hopefully a spot in the HOF (eventually), for the 13 years of service to Da Bears as a leader both on and off the field, a perennial Pro Bowler and one of the hardest working, humble guys you could have on your squad.
The Bears are now a lot worse off not having Kreutz at the helm.
Da Coach would have never allowed dis move.
