    Found this little article from the Chicago Tribune. Robinson seems like a great pick right now. He's a PLAYMAKER and a good guy.

    THE LAST ROW BOLD NAMES
    Deserving of a prime spot
    By John Mullin
    Tribune staff reporter

    After Houston rookie cornerback Dunta Robinson returned a first-half interception 40 yards, he was forced out of bounds near the Bears' 15-yard line. That put him in the vicinity of seats occupied by Air Force Maj. Mike Bollwit, Army Maj. Paula Jones, Navy Chief Migual Rodriguez and Marine chaplain Misael Nascimento, service personnel given special seats by the NFL.

    Robinson handed the ball to one of the servicemen as a gesture of appreciation.

    "I don't even know if they've been overseas, but for everything those guys have been through," Robinson said, "I just wanted to give them something good."

    The seats are part of a pilot program and could become permanent across the league. The four were chosen at random at a recent USO appreciation banquet.

    That was something I didn't get, either. He went out of bounds at the 15, and we ended up with 1st and ten on the 40. How in the hell did that happen?

    The Bears were actually pretty lucky in this game. Aaron Glenn should have had about 2-3 more interceptions than he did. Texans absolutely SHUT DOWN any attempts to pass the ball downfield. That was fun to watch.
