Quote:
New Bears general manager Phil Emery didn't waste much time making a big decision.

He's relieved Tim Ruskell of his duties as the Bears director of player personnel.

Ruskell had been the interim general manager since Jerry Angelo was let go Jan. 3. Ruskell had previously been the president of the Seattle Seahawks.

Well, he'll have no one to blame if he picks all the wrong players.

He'll also get all the credit for picking the right players. I'm excited about the moves.

Very interesting, especially given their history. That's a pretty bold move and shows he intends to put his stamp on things.

How great will this be if Emery goes rouge on them after the hire knowing the Bears aren't eating multiple years of a contract.

Great first move. I'm both suprised and impressed. On the other hand, this might have been a setup as Ruskell is a pinata for the fans.

Emery was told by Ted to fire Ruskell.

If this is true, all the more reason to believe changes really are taking place up at Halas.

Now we just need someone to pass along the memo to George McClasky to fire Ted
