Bear Down Baffa

Welcome to the 2008-09 season, and to the new blog @ BearDownBaffa.wordpress.com!

Congratulations on making the brilliant decision to visit the Bear Down Baffa blog, voted the #1 Bears Blog in the United States in 2008!  And much like our posts left you feeling last year – breathless, disoriented and completely satisfied both emotionally and physically – it is our goal to bring you to new heights of Bears pleasure this year.  It’s a simple equation: Bears games are your Sunday foreplay, and this blog is your Monday morning screaming orgasm.  Even Lovie Smith reads: “Coaching the Bears is fun, but man, that blog is some funny ass shit.  I laughed so hard I slapped my wife!” 

So we decided it was a dumb idea to switch the URL each year (2007, 2008, etc.).  The idiot who came up with that idea has been verbally humiliated and severely beaten by several un-named acquaintances of our staff.  He was given the option of surrendering his scrotal sack or being banned from the blog for life.  It was a tough decision for him.  I guess we didn’t really think it through because we don’t know what do to with a scrotal sack (and no, it can’t be sold on eBay – we checked).  But that shows you the commitment of our staff.  Anyway, since none of the other Baffa-run Bears blogs were voted #1 Bears Blog in the United States in 2008, we thought it would be OK to go with Bear Down Baffa.

The photo we selected for the main page – and this photo – is from Week 13 last year when we hosted the NY Giants.  Little did we know that we were leading the 2008 Super Bowl champs by 2 scores with 10 minutes to play on that foggy, wet day 9 months ago.  I’m sure you recall – that was the day we let them waltz in a couple times to end our season.  I want you to sit back and think about that day for a moment.  Take a second and let it sink it, and remember that pain.  I mean touch it; taste it.  I want you to remember how it made you feel because that pain is what drives this team of heroes during the off-season.  It’s what fuels them during 2-a-days in camp.  It’s what motivates them to stay away from the clubs, and when they do venture out with their homies, to call it a night at a decent hour, and leave the weaponry at home.  Yes, it’s all of these things.  But most of all, that pain is what’s going to bring you another Super Bowl Championship this year.  The Bears are hungry, my friends.  And when the Bears are hungry, nobody’s safe.

More to come soon, including how a plethora of our predictions actually came true this off-season!

PS I’m sure you’re all wondering, so yes, I am praying three times daily that the Bears will somehow manage to bring Bret Favrefignuugen to Chicago.  And if we were to witness such an historic event – I’m telling you, it would be bigger than the Beatles coming to America – I would go to church and rejoice.  I would read from the good book and I would share in his blessings.  I would sing praises to the Lord.  That’s it – there’s no punch line.  I will go to church if the Bears sign the unsung star of There’s Something about Mary.
