Okay... I hate the Bears. It comes with the territory when you're a lifelong Packers fan. However...
As much as I think Cedric Benson has made some poor decisions here (and on the boat), I think the Bears are wasting a good PR opportunity (and draft pick) for themselves and the NFL by waiving him. They should check him into 30 days of rehab and pay for it and use it as motivation for him to have a great season. If he screws up, then the Bears look like heroes for trying. If he comes through, the Bears are heroes for succeeding. They can't lose...
Alcohol abuse is a tough thing. I know more about it than I'd like to. I hope he beats it and gets his career and life back on track.
