After 4th Super Bowl, Proehl to hang it up

By Terry Bannon
Tribune staff reporter

January 31, 2007, 11:06 PM CST


MIAMI -- Former Bears receiver Ricky Proehl, now with the Colts, is retiring after the Super Bowl.

"This is it," said Proehl, who will be suiting up for his fourth Super Bowl. "I came back to this football team because I felt like this team had the best chance of getting to the Super Bowl and, luckily, I was right. This is it for me. This is my last game."
May it end the same way as SB XXXVI.

"Tonight a dynasty is born!" -immortal words




Goodbye Ricky.

"Suiting up" is a relative term for Proehl at this point. Against the Patriots he was a healthy scratch.

If he could have only played and caught the tying TD we would have stood a chance...

I think he meant two weeks ago in the Pats-Colts game.

What am I missing:

Manning ran one in, Klecko caught one, Saturday recovered one, Addai ran one in.

Are you saying in the SBs? He caught one in each of them, only to see NE make history. Twice.
