    “When did my house turn into a hangout for every grossly overpaid, terminally pampered professional football player in northern Illinois?"

    "Plus, no women around." Leandro Collins, the Bears' first-string tight end emerged from the office munching on a bag of chips. "There's times when you need a rest from the ladies."
