Keep it going, but lets try to win this easier.

 

Last time the Bears and Steelers played (W 17-14, 2009 - also known as Jay's first home game and W as a Bear):

Still have nightmares of Bettis trucking Urlacher in the snow.

 

Cutler is 2-0 career vs. the Steelers with 2 game-winning drives in the final seconds of a tie game, fitting considering his last 2 games.

Just curious, are the Steelers just a distant 2nd team for you?

[Omar]

Can we have a nice easy blowout this time?

[gscool89]

Ugh this is going to suck with Breaking Bad on at the same time. Praying for another weather delay.

No, I hate the Steelers. Was pretty indifferent to them before I moved to Pittsburgh, but their fans are such a-holes that I now loathe the team. I co-write my blog with a Steelers fan. We came together for the blog's original intent of being a draft website.

I plan on recording BB, starting it at halftime, then finishing the Bears on delay. Easy to catch up on football with all the down time.

[Soul]

From the files of the nit-picky: PIT is 0-1, UM. Possibly 0-2 by tomorrow night.

[Sosa21MVP]

Bears (2-0) @ Steelers (0-2) imo

Also, there's this thing called ''online piracy'' which seems to be the way most people watch Breaking Bad.

Or just DVRing Breaking Bad and watching it after the live football game.

Yeah but this means avoiding Twitter for 2 hours or so. Not sure if that's humanly possible.

Wouldn't twitter also spoil the outcome of the Bears game?

Also, I'm pretty sure the title of "unicorn" is reserved for Martellus, UMF.

That would mean I would need to have Cable/Satellite + AMC + DVR/TiVo.

 

On the piracy side, all I need is a computer + high speed internet.

Also, if someone absolutely can't avoid Twitter (or the internet in general) for a few hours, that person might need some kind of intervention.

 

The "record BB, watch the game" option seems like a total no brainer.

GD I hate primetime games, and this one is especially bad. Not only is there the Breaking Bad conflict, but my wife is heading out of town very early Monday morning so I'm flying solo with the little ones starting with the Monday drop offs. That also means we are essentially forced to watch BB late Sunday night because there's no way I'm lasting several days with that on my DVR and all the talk on the internet.

 

 

yesterday was amazing. Perfect weather, brought my TV onto the deck and spend the entire day prepping my pulled pork. Need more 1pm football please.

[ctcf]

Heck yeah, pulled pork.

 

More fun with numbers:

Martellus Bennett: 2 games, 10 catches, 125 yards, 3 TDs. In 2012, #Bears TEs combined for 29 catches, 297 yards and 3 TDs in 16 games.

I like when the Bears play in one of the prime time games because it guarantees I'll be able to see the game. I live in the regional coverage twilight zone and invariably get crap, and Sunday Ticket is just too rich for my blood.
