Well... I would like the Bears to make the playoffs over the Vikings. I would like to beat the Bears. I would like a high draft pick.

 

I also think the Giants will play most regulars next week, if u remember last year they went balls to the wall against New England in the final game, and it seemed to help them.

 

If the Packers win I will be excited, but if they don't please win next week Chicago.

 

Yeah I understand the reasoning behind the whole New England final game, but I'm just saying like Jacobs if he says he's even a little hurt I think they sit him

I hate when Packers fans tell me they want the Bears to win because they hate the Vikings more. I want to punch people wearing Packers gear in the face when they walk down the street (no offense) but they want us to get in over the Vikings. Now I know what it feels like to be a Brewers fan.

Why? I'd rather see the Packers make it than the Vikings if the Bears were out of it. I hate them both, but I respect the Packers a little.

 

edit: Plus, there is a lot of domestic abuse up here when the Pack loses. I'd rather not see the ladies get smacked around y'know?

Nah, I agree with UMF on this one. Though I don't think it's the opinion of a majority of Packer fans that the Vikes are a bigger rival than the Bears. I think it's true in the western part of the state, but I think in the corridor from south of Green Bay to the stateline, the Bears are thought of as a bigger rival.

Packers fans respect the Bears because they have a tradition. Vikings fans have none but they talk like they are good. Because of this they are annoying.

It's only been a recent thing where Vikings and Packers have a big rival...My gf lives in Minn right now and her cousins got really up for the Vikings and Packers game

See, I agree about at least respecting the Packers. The Vikings have always had a bunch of punks on their team (John Randle, the early Cris Carter, that guy who showed the Bears up after returning a fumble a few years ago) and they play in that garbage indoor stadium playing that stupid horn 500 times a game. Just something about that franchise angers me.

 

The Packers have the tradition, stadium, etc... that makes them respectable. And Favre was great there forever. The only thing that the Packers have ever really done to anger me was when they took out McMahon on a dirty play, but I was like 5 then, so that doesn't even bother me that much.

I think it was Favre's domination over the Bears when I was growing up that makes me hate him and the Packers so much. The Vikings were just sort of there, a common enemy of the Packers. Also, I grew up within sight of the Wisconsin border. There were so many Packer fans up there, so that sort of fueled the rivalry for me too.

 

I'm not in awe of their tradition because we have tradition of our own.

I have to say the boarder thing with Wisconsin was what made me hate the Colts for the 4 years I was in college. I went to Purdue and every person there is a Colts fan and it just drove me insane. I completely agree with the Farve comment. We hated him because he killed us every year

Incredibly true statement. I think there are actual statistics on the subject.

With MNF vs. Green Bay upon us, I'm reminded of Halloween Night 1994, when GB absolutely murdered the Bears at Soldier Field. I was 15 and so excited to go to that game. It rained like hell all night.

 

They retired Butkus' and Sayers' number at halftime and the place was mostly empty due to the rain and the drubbing on the field. Final score, I still remember, was 33-6.

 

What I didn't remember and just had to look up was that Favre finished that game 6-15 for 82 yards. Of course, 223 rushing yards didn't hurt.

I remember everything about that game, including the rain, and I was only 11. I also remember the MNF drubbing by the Packers in Champaign in 2002, the year after we made the playoffs and everyone assumed we would be good again. Then the next drubbing to open the new Soldier Field in 2003.

 

Packers + MNF = Bad results. Let's change that tonight.

You may not care for the team I root for, but you respect the fact that I want you to lose. Vice versa in football for sure.
