Bear Down Baffa

Ho-ly Shit!  After being dominated in their last four match-ups, the Bears beat the Fudge Packers on a Monday night, becoming the only unbeaten team in the NFC.  That’s two NFC title contenders we’ve beaten in back to back weeks after “losing” to the worst NFC team on opening day.  It sure didn’t hurt that GB had more penalties (18) than they did points (17).  And after GB set a team record for penalties in a game, the NFL is considering changing the color of the yellow penalty flag to yellow and green.   (more…)

The Chicago Bears are officially back in business.  Unlike Joaquin Phoenix’s hip hop career, we are for reals.  Coming from behind twice against a solid Dallas defense, we were able to hold on and win for the second week in a row.  And this week’s win wasn’t due to a bad call at home against a terrible team without their starting QB – it was on the road against a Pro Bowl QB and what some experts called the NFC Super Bowl favorite.  Don’t look now but the Bears have won 4 in a row, and are tied with GB for first place at 2-0.   (more…)
