Anyone else think this is complete BS? I don't buy for a second that Terry has any sort of "guy", and this seems like another one of those stories where if, eventually, they DO sign him ... well, Terry had it. If they do not, well then they didn't but they CERTAINLY did try to back in OCT 2012.

It's dumb to think that a lazy SOB like Boers would have some inside source that scary stalkers like Brad Biggs wouldn't have already gotten a call from.

Safe lie, Boers, safe lie. Well played, LOB.

EDIT TO CLARIFY: Terry, and the station, is touting that Terry has the breaking news that Lovie Smith and the Bears are in early talks about a contract extension.

But he's definitely has Peeps.

I was just thinking the same thing. Why would Phil Emery start negotiating with Lovie now? It doesn't make sense. Terry has no guys. He hasn't been to Halas hall in 10 years. He hasn't been to a game in years.
I too call BS...

Now the "Prospect Heights Grill," though I was pretty sure the corner of Thomas and Rand was Arlington Heights. At any rate, rest in peace. Rest in Peep's.

I miss those little nooks of Old Suburbia like Peep's and Randhurst and modest split-level houses. Now it's all just Deer Park puffery.

That is weird. That's not even near Prospect Heights.

Welp, Google Maps says that only the northeast quadrant of that intersection is in Arlington Heights. I swear, between the jigsaw-puzzle boundaries of the suburbs, the fact that school districts and cities never quite overlap correctly, and the ward/neighborhood/community triad in the city, Illinois really wants to make sure you never quite know where the fuck you are.

By Vaughn McClure, Chicago Tribune reporter

Contrary to a local radio report, the Bears and coach Lovie Smith have not entered into discussions regarding a contract extension, according to Matthew Smith, the coach's agent and son.

"Coach's only concern is bringing the Lombardi Trophy back to Chicago," Matthew Smith told the Tribune on Tuesday. "Any discussion regarding his contract would take place after the season."

WSCR-AM 670's Terry Boers, citing an anonymous source, first reported the Bears and Smith had started negotiations on a multi-year extension.

Lovie Smith signed a two-year contract extension in February 2011 that runs through the 2013 season.

Smith, now in his ninth season, owns a 75-58 record (4-1 this season) and is 3-3 in the playoffs during his tenure, including an appearance in Super Bowl XLI. He was the 2005 NFL Coach of the Year and owns three division titles.

Wait, Lovie's agent is his son?!? Man, that guy really doesn't deal with outsiders, huh. Wonder if this will elicit a "NEVER. HIRE. FAMILY. AS AGENTS." edict from Dan.

Oops, looks like Terry Boers is a totally full of shit liar again.

He is also bad at radio.

Could we consider the possibility that Boers says things impulsively to sound relevant regardless of truth?

We could.

But could we also acknowledge the fact that the above has already been stated and accepted?

Terry is bad, a liar and totally full of shit.

And tomorrow will be Vaughn McClure bashing day. I can hear it now.."He's a penis, he doesn't know what he's talking about...the pud whack"

You know we're talking about Terry and not the Potus, right?

He lied. He lied to you, to me, to the board and all of his adoring fans.

We agree on this one asshole. Pump the brakes.

It aint the six minutes. Its what happens in those six minutes.

With Holmes and Bernstein also claiming to have very reliable sources around the Bears, I would expect that one or both would be able to make a very quick call to confirm Boers' information, since, he too, also has a reliable source. When you have this much sourcing available, it should be easily proven what Boers is reporting. Even if Holmes runs into a wall with his local sources, he's not shy in letting everyone know that he has sources around the NFL as well. Surely, somebody can help to re-validate Boers' original report.

Uh ,eh, Nothing you can spew,
Can make me doubt the news,
From my guy.
Nothing you could say,
'Cause I got a scoop today,
From my guy.
eh, eh, For the love of God
I know I might seem odd
But I've got my guy.
