  1. Soulja boy came on just now like it always does and Hester started dancing as usual. But then the entire packers ST started dancing and Hester stopped defeated.
  2. Cutler lost me today. He's been unbelievably bad in biggest game of his life. Edit: I know I'm overrecting and it has not much to do with that last throw.
  3. Last 3 bears games I've been to: Bengals 45 bears 10 Patriots 36 bears 7 This
  4. erik, save some for the rest of wisconsin I'll try, but only if you promise me that you'll keep your glass jaw out of danger today. Don't get punched out by any women today, ok? Remember? Because you got punched that one time and broke your jaw? It's no different than what he's doing to me. Turnabout is fair play. Sure but the only reason people keep bringing it up is because you are so obviously bothered by it. Your comeback is to randomly bring up the only thing you know abou his personal life which isn't really a knock against him. I think it makes him look badass. It would be like if a white sox fan was making 1908 remarks at you and you responded with "yeah well it took you 4 whole games to win the world series!! Burn!!"

  6. Welcome to page 44 lol
  7. less than 12 hours now...
  8. What he said
  9. When I leave for the game tomorrow, I am either never going to read this thread again, or I'm going to save it and read it whenever I feel down.
  10. I was speaking from a 'if we win' scenario. I feel good about the game but by no means am I confident of a win.
  11. We all will. We'll have 2 weeks to bask in the awesomeness of beating our rival to get into the Super Bowl. That should be enough time to cement the legacy of the game before the Super Bowl. That said, there's no doubt that losing the Super Bowl will put a damper on this one.
  12. 19 hours and 15 mins.
  13. On more note, with the results of today, the Hawks have a better point differential for the season than Detroit does (+23 to +21), and is 2nd in the west to Vancouver (+38)
  14. Also, with that 5 day break, most of the rest of the league has caught up to us in games. In fact, before today's game, there were only 2 teams in the West that played less games than us, and only one of those teams (St. Louis) is in contention for a playoff spot. Which means that we're in 6th place in points, tied with Anaheim who has played 2 more games than us, and 1 point behind Phoenix, who has played as many games as us. Also of course, just 8 points behind Detoilet. Hard climb but not impossible, especially with 3 more games against them.
  15. It's always nice to play the Red Wings on 5 days of rest. Haha we looked great today. Hopefully we saved enough for tomorrow. It would be AWESOME to take 4/4 points over the best and 3rd best point teams in the league on back to back days. What a statement that would make to the NHL. Hopefully Toews is ok, he wasn't on the ice since he got that stick in his midsection.
  16. Truffle, you said the Packers are "usually good" which I somehow took as "better than the Bears". Sorry if that was not what you meant. I thought you were suggesting an inferiority complex for the reason bears fans hate gb, which is not at all true.
  17. p do tell. Why do I hate the Packers? Because thats how my father brought me up . Why does he hate them? It's what his father brought him up to do. Why do Bears fans in general hate the Packers, i.e. when did the formations of the rivalry begin? Some would say it started back in 1924 when a Bears player and a Packers player were ejected for fighting on the field. The teams never liked each other. George Halas was famous for his disdain of the Packers. It has nothing to do with teams being in the same division for a long time. And it has nothing to do with the Packers being better more often, considering the Bears hold the all time head to head record. That 1941 playoff game that everyone is mentioning, was held in Chicago and drew 43,000 people. The next week the Bears played the Giants in Chicago for the championship and it drew 14,000. It's a rivalry fueled by hate that has been around since they started playing each other
  18. You have no idea what you are talking about.
  19. One thing that does worry me a bit about the Bears is that in their last 4 home games they've given up 26, 36, 34 and 24 points. I know in the Eagles and Seahawks game the points were in garbage time, but I wonder how much Soldier Field slows the Bears D down and allows the opponent to move the ball easier. I know everyone is happy that we are getting GB off the turf, but it can obviously work against us too. Sure we're familiar with it, but if its a bad fit for our defense, familiarity will only limit the damage.
  20. He's not going to be 100% for the game anyways. You think trotting out a broken down safety against the Packers receivers will work out? Broken down? lol He has a hip pointer. He'll take an injection and be fine. Chris Harris himself said he won't be 100% in time for the game. not 100% doesn't equal broken down. He could be less than 100% and take a pain killing shot before the game and play as if he was 100%. That's more or less what it sounds like its gonna be. Besides, Harris is part of a 3 man safety rotation, they sometimes rotate multiple times during drives. If Harris isn't performing, I have confidence that Wright can, unless he gets hurt for the 19th time this year. One thing I don't understand is that about a month ago people were saying Harris was having a below average year. Somehow the sentiment changed to him having a great year. Peter King even named him to his All Pro team. Really? I like Chris Harris but he's not an all around good safety. He's good in some parts of his game and medicore in others.
  21. i'm scared guys
  22. I have the Blue Jays winning this trade. Interesting move though. I never ever thought Wells and he deal could be traded.
  23. It's been like that all year. I shudder to think just how good the Packers would have been this year if they hadn't been decimated by injuries like they were. Maybe they would have even made the NFC Championship game
