  10. I know that's going to be the official accepted story, but I refuse to believe that to be true. A 70+ completion percentage, a 68.3 rating. That's not taking a dump. That's not disaster Rex. That's better than what Roethlisberger did while winning last year's Super Bowl and he doesn't face anywhere near the scrutiny Grossman does. Rex did not have a good game, but he did not crap the bed either. the 2 botched snaps and the 2 completely inexcusable interceptions will stick out.

  13. Corrected He wasn't to me. I walked up to him randomly during the Final Four a couple years ago, and he was one of the nicest people I have ever met. He talked to me for 10-15 minutes in a hallway, and never seemed upset or irritated at all that I was using up his time-a real down to earth type of guy. He was born with a silver spoon in his mouth as the oldest kid of a former NFL quarterback. He's been given enough opportunity in his life without people like you drooling all over his pathetic existence. He called out his team publicly last year when "they" cost them the game and people name their kids after him. but if he was a bear you wouldn't care. let's be honest.

  18. YA'LL NEED TO STOP STEALIN MY PICKS that's like 7 in a row now
  19. welcome to 3 posts ago
  20. when i was a kid, i loved the bears, but didn't really follow them or watch football at all. during that time i loved everything chicago, because i hated moving from chicago to ohio so much. i loved the cubs, bulls, blackhawks, and yes, even the white sox. but as i got older, my love for the other chicago teams started to taper off (except for the cubs, who i've always loved). i lost interest in the blackhawks, lost interest in the bears, l lost interest in the white sox (and eventually grew to hate them when i discovered the internet), and lost interest in the bulls as soon as jordan and company left. when i started watching football again about 5 years ago, i decided i loved the bengals, since i can see all their games and i was a fan of corey dillon and jon kitna. i wished the bears well, but i no longer considered myself a big fan of them. so the long-winded answer to your question is no. though i am pulling for the bears on sunday, and i'm dusting off an old bears hat to wear that day.
