Bears line changes.....or lack thereof!

As most everyone who will listen to me talk about the bears, i believe Frank Omiyale couldnt start for a high school team much less the bears. Well, this whole week it has looked like finally Omiyale would be taking a seat on the bench at Cincy. However, Lovie and Ron Turner came out and defended Omiyale yesterday and said he continue to start at left guard. In an article in the Trib, Turner defended Omiyale saying that "he has only started 6 games in this career".
Really??? Now inexperience has become an excuse for ineptitude on the bears? I don't care if the guy has started 1 game or 100, if he isn't getting the job done, he doesn't deserve to play. In the article, Turner & Lovie all but say they aren't happy with Omiyale's play. I know in the offseason the bears paid Omiyale $14 million for 4 years but come on guys, lets put in Beekman who started all last year and give him a chance to help right a lost running game. I mean Omiyale looks like the lost, unathletic fat kid you choose in middle school football who you hope can just be fat and get in the way of someone but really is just running around lost on the field. I challenge you to watch #68 for a series on sunday (unfortunately, it seems he will be in for all of them) and if you dont come away agreeing with me, ill lay off Frank for a week.
