    Wow, you guys have been busy talking football and I have been missing it.

    I'm kind of liking the way the games played out this weekend. Few suprises though. Like the Jets beating the Pats. I didn't know who to cheer for, I hate them both. I have to admit though I was cheering for the Jets. The Bears seemed to have killed the Seahawks at first. I didn't watch much because it was turning into a blowout. Just like the Packers blew out the Falcons. I am ready to watch the Bears vs. the Packers now. Going to be another good game.

    Hi Adam,

    Bears defense relaxed a bit late in the 4th and gave up some scoring. Otherwise it was a good game.

    G'morning, String:

    Relaxed? RELAXED?? Nope. The Hawks finally started playing in the 4th quarter... Ok, maybe not. I don't want to sound like I'm sniveling... I'm really not... Really...

    Go Bears!

    Next week you should feel the earthquake in Chicago all the way to the west coast Ex. Not sure about beating those pesky Packers though.

    It is going to be a great game like their last match up. A number 4 defense against a number 5 defense.

    In their last game (10 - 3 Packers) no matter what the Bears said they weren't giving 110% however their defense did a pretty good job against Rodgers (sp). This one next Sunday... for all the 'toys'.

    Not sure but I heard it is a 'pick 'um. That means the Packers are picked to win as the home team gets 3 points for being at home.

    I see the Bears vs. Steelers in the Superbowl. That is my guess. I could be totally wrong and it might be Packers vs. Jets. I hope for you it will be the Bears. They really deserve it. I think it is time.

    That would be tough one Adam as I love both teams, but I think I'll be hoping for the Bears. But even so I would enjoy watching the Steelers beat the Jets.

    The Jets are a sloppy team and shouldn't have been here to begin with. They are some trash talkers too. Wonder what they are going to say about the Steelers game.

    I tend to agree, especially Ryan. He makes himself look somewhat like a country hick with his tactics. However it seems to motivate his team, I hope it doesn't cause trouble on the field in a very negative way.

    Ok, take the new poll above... sorry for the spelling errors Wondergirl... I hit submit too quickly... :o
  • Jan 17, 2011, 12:59 PM
    adam_89

    Do you not give the other options any chance?

    Like The Jets vs. the Bears or the Steelers vs the Packers?

    I like your scenerio better though.

    First poll I have done Adam. It didn't offer me more choices, or maybe I screwed it up... probably the latter.

    I wasn't disrespecting or anything Stringer. It was just an honest quiestion.

    What can I say, it starts young and never ends I guess.

    EDIT::: Well sorry, the picture was an 'invalid file' I guess. It was a picture of a 2 year old in a Bears' helmet sitting on a Packers' toilet...

    The picture sounds classic Stringer. What time is the game this weekend and what day?

    2:05 Pm Chicago time Adam, Steelers game right after.
  • Jan 20, 2011, 08:36 AM

    I know I should be shot for asking, but what day are the games? Saturday or Sunday?

    Sunday Adam.

    Bears are having some trouble... down 7... 1st quarter.
  • Jan 23, 2011, 04:44 PM
    Stringer

    Oh well...

    Hanie (Bears third string QB) did a pretty good job though, always liked him. Too little too late.

    Still hoping the Steelers win and then I can cheer against Green Bay in the SB.

    Sorry to hear about the game outcome Stringer. I was playing Euchre during the game and didn't see much of what was going on. I did hear most of the highlights though.

    Tis OK Adam, I'll survive... :)
  • Jan 24, 2011, 12:00 PM

    Ok, I was hoping for them though. They deserved it.
  • Jan 24, 2011, 12:10 PM

    I bleed with them however I do think that they were somewhat lucky this year and their luck just ran out.
  • Jan 24, 2011, 12:46 PM
    adam_89

    But considering they were running with their third string quarterback, they did pretty good. If the Colts have all their players back next year then they should be rolling on all cylinders. I'm hoping anyway.

    I would like to see a few changes though. Manning is looking at a new contract which is good. We have a few more players that will be looking to be resigned or let go.

    Bullitt they will probably resign, as well as Charlie Johnson. Vinatieri might not be a good choice to resign if it is anything more than a year. Addai will probably get resigned even though he is no good and we could get a better running back even though we don't need one but it would help the game all around.

    I say they need to get rid of Bob Sanders, he is a waste of money. They should trade him and Addai somewhere and get a good running back. We need a few new offenseive lineman too. Or they need to make them stronger.
  • Jan 24, 2011, 12:53 PM
    Stringer

    Sounds like a good analysis Adam.

    Bears:

    Much stronger offensive line with added experience.

    A fast, big and experienced receiver.

    Personally, I give Cutler one more year he needs to mature.
  • Jan 24, 2011, 01:05 PM
    adam_89

    Sometimes is takes time to take in your surrounding and make the righ plays and get adjusted. That was one bog mistake the Colts had this year was trying to work with all these new guys and to get them to run the right routes and be on the same page as Manning. It was hard and we never got there.
  • Jan 24, 2011, 01:11 PM
    Stringer

    Yeah, same with the Bears Adam...

    As it says in my signature, my friend.

    Well we did have the Blackhawks last year winning the Stanley Cup...

    To me not quite the same but...
