Posted by Aaron Wilson on May 31, 2009, 4:44 p.m. Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler, the rocket-armed Pro Bowl passer acquired this offseason in a blockbuster trade from the Denver Broncos, apparently isn’t making himself very popular with the local fan base. According to David Haugh of the Chicago Tribune, Cutler is turning off some fans by refusing to sign autographs while attending Chicago Cubs baseball games. “I know Cutler already has alienated enough small pockets of fans at various appearances in Chicago to produce a flurry of furious e-mails, such as the one from a guy at Wrigley Field last week who criticized the quarterback for waving off autograph seekers,” Haugh writes. “Generally speaking, the same folks complaining about Cutler’s insouciant behavior will be cheering him on his first 350-yard Sunday. Sure, Cutler could do himself some favors by exuding more charm or suffering the occasional fool with a little less outward disdain. “But those who have been Bears fans for two decades or two generations, need to remember Cutler has been here for two months. There will be and has been a degree of culture shock. Denver isn’t Chicago. Eventually, Cutler will adjust because he will learn life is easier that way in this tradition-rich football city. If he doesn’t, then he will get what he deserves. But it’s too early in his tenure to predict that.” As Haugh correctly pointed out, Cutler just got to town. Plus, football isn’t a popularity contest. It’s a game of skill and will. Nonetheless, this piece of information does tend to reinforce the bad reputation that Cutler gained during his messy divorce from the Denver Broncos. Besides working on throwing touchdown passes, Cutler might want to sign a few autographs.

Naahhh Those complaining Bear fans aren't from the last 2 decades or generations. Those fans were the ones standing there slack jawed, in shock, to see an actual bona-fide NFL QB in a Bear jersey. They wouldn't have complained for fear he'd get back on the bus & leave... Edited by Tarkus, Aug 5 2009, 10:37 AM.

Yes, everyone wants an autograph, and I would too, but sometimes he just needs to be a regular guy and have his own life. Bonnie
