Bears 26 and Packers 0


"Bear down, Chicago Bears"

Last Sunday…oh last Sunday!

Favre was throwing horrid passes and ending up smelling the “frozen tundra” as he was seen eating dirt.

The offense reminded me of some of my high school friends and me—could not score to save our souls.

Green Bay did have a running game, that showed glimpses, but not a legitimate threat.

The once mighty and vaulted Packer Defense was a leaky sieve that drained blood from every porous region.

It was a thing of beauty.

Then the commentators come in and tried to ruin it for the rest of us by saying how weak the Packers were and never highlighting that Grossman had a career game, the Bears special teams were fantastic in all phases (remember besides the Hester score, Maynard put the ball clearly in a place that pinned the Packers back), and the Chicago Defense gave Favre his first shutout. Sounds like a formula for success if one were to ask me.

It is early, but let’s be realistic here. The Chicago Bears Division will not give trouble and the Bears only tough spot in their schedule is the road trips in November, where they play on the East Coast twice and I think the Patriots and Jets are very beatable.

Dare I say it—this could be what I have waited twenty years to occur. Super Bore, here we come!!!

Even as I watched that last Bear game, I could smell the sweet scent of victory and the stench of Green Bay. Then I realized Guinness had dropped his load in the litter box (Guin does not cover) and the Glade oil/fan thing kicked in. Still, the poetry from the moment could easily flow!

Eric--

Are you sure what you smelled was Guinness dregs or the now in last place Cubs?

Well, at least I can take my mind off the northsiders by enjoying the Bears. I got my Urlacher jersey out of mothballs and I wear it proudly on game day.
