Bear Down Baffa

It seemed like he was throwing the ball to the wrong team, almost all 67 record-setting times.  The Bears traded him back to Tampa, but Brian “Lube It Up Til It’s Good And” Griese got his revenge Sunday when he stuck it in the Bears collective ass in their home opener.  He kept it close by spotting us 3 INT’s, but for the second week in a row a former Bear had a big game against us, and the Bears again wake up Monday morning as losers.  I’m just sick about it.  I gave our staff the night off and told them to go home and be with their families to ride out the Katrina-sized storm that is raining down on Bear Nation.  Make no mistake about it folks, our season is already on the brink of disaster, and there’s still a week left in baseball’s regular season.  I think it’s time to start calling for some heads.  (more…)

We got just what we wanted – a rematch of our Jan. ’06 post-season debacle when Steve Smith ran amuck at Soldierz, like a politician at a whorehouse, and nobody stopped him.  But the Bears could not exact their sweet revenge, even with Carolina’s 1-man show serving a 2-game suspension for sucker punching a teammate in a pre-season practice.  So the Bears return from their first road trip of the season 1-1, winning the game we should have lost, and losing the game we should have won.  So much for our 3-game win streak.  (more…)

Now I’m no Donald “I’m too classy to say anything bad about Rosie, but she’s a pig” Trump when it comes to self-promotion, but it’s hard to deny the accuracy of our staff’s predictions at the end of last season.  Let’s take a look at just how right we were…  (more…)
