Da Bears play the Cheese Head Packers on Monday Night Football (link here). I'll be watching, on DVR, an hour after the game begins (to avoid commercials), cooler of beer beside my couch, Trader Joe's Pollo Asada on the grill. Packers are favored by the odds pickers. With Cutler's inconsistency and sporadic running game performances in the pre-season and first game, I am sorry to say I have to agree with the bookies.
If you're in West Phoenix and a Bears fan, you're welcome to come on by and watch with me. My buddy Matt and I used to go and eat copious amounts of wings, washed down with many buckets of beer, in Greenville on Monday nights, years ago... ahhh, good times. =)
Would love to hang out and watch MNF with JoeP. Alas I am hundreds of miles away...
ReplyDeleteAlas, geography and the lack of a teleporter get us once again!
ReplyDeleteAs my friend Claudia stated succinctly, from on of her friend's humorous FB postings: "The Bungle Bowl was hosted last evening in Chicago. The Bears did all they could to help the Green Bay team win (three interceptions), but GB was able to wrest a miserable defeat from the jaws of victory by committing 18 penalties (a record!) and a timely lost fumble in the last 3 or 4 minutes. What a debacle..."
I am skeptical that the Bears will have an awesome season. Like the Cubs, the Bears will start off strong, and then dwindle into obscurity by the end of the season.
