Originally posted by Chico View PostShould have taken the 2 million the Bears offered.
I heard Urlacher interviewed on the WSCR radio this morning, and apparently he did not feel $1 million per year was worth putting his body through what he would need to do to play another year or two. He was seeking a much higher salary, and was not able to find any takers. By retiring as a Bear, I think he will find other opportunities to earn money in Chicago (endorsements, speaking engagements, TV or radio commentary, etc) where he could probably earn as much money as he was being offered to play, without the risks of injury and all the work involved.
