• BEAR DOWN, CHICAGO BEARS!!!!!!

  Holy fucking shit, what a game!!!! We watched it at Buffalo Wild Wings in Romeoville. Most of the game, Mark and his friend Brian (and Rusty at times) were bitching about the Bears and Grossman. At one point, with about 6 minutes left to go, Jeff, Mark, and Brian all started to get ready to leave. I knew better. I told them they still had a chance, after all, I was at a game (say it with me, Heather!) in which the Bears were down by 14 points with 27 seconds left and they came back to win. 13 points with 5 minutes left, piece of cake. After they came back, the place was going crazy, everybody jumping up and down and cheering, you would have thought that we were at the game. And when the Cardinals had a chance to win on a field goal with 40 seconds left, I felt helpless so before the kick, I started shouting "WIDE RIGHT, WIDE RIGHT!" and to make myself look even more like a jackass, I started jumping up and waving my arms to the right, kinda like Carlton Fisk in the '75 World Series. Here comes the kick. Its up.......................WIDE RIGHT!!! All of a sudden, with well over a hundred people in the bar going crazy, I didn't feel like a jackass after all! The Bears won a game they had no business winning, which is what good teams do. I mean, they turned the ball over 6 fucking times and still found a way to win. That's crazy!

  And, as an added bonus, I came home to find I'm in first place in my football pool! WOOOHOOO!!! Everything's coming up Mike!!!
