Bear Down Baffa

We were supposed to be rebuilding, which started in 2013.  We’ve gone 19-32 since.  That’s a .372 winning percentage.  And not only are we not getting better, we’re getting worse.  We can’t even win at home, and we just lost to a rookie QB for the second straight week.  At 0-3 for the second straight year, it appears that we have to start the rebuild all over again.  You can blame management, coaches, players, injuries, change – you can blame whatever or whomever you want.  The bottom line is the Bears are performing as well as a belly dancer with the hiccups and diarrhea.  If only that belly dancer played QB, we’d at least have a chance.

the Bears passed on drafting him – 6 times

It’s official:  the Bears suck.  At 0-2, we’re already 2 games out of first, sitting alone in last, and trailing 9 teams for the Wild Card.  Over our last 17 home games, we’re 3-14.  That’s a winning percentage of .176.  And there are no signs that it’s going to lighten up anytime soon.  In fact, it’s getting worse.  Much like the 6 Bears players that left this game injured, the rest of our squad appeared to stop playing.  And I, for one, may stop watching.  Added to which, now our QB is hurt.  With an awful recent history, a current losing streak and no promise for the future, we’re officially a losing organization.  And we all know Chicago only has room for one of those, so god help us all!

If you Google the word “Brock,” the top 3 results are:  rapist Brock “Two Fingers” Turner, Brock “What Do You Mean Steroids?” Lesnar, and Brock “I’m Making $2M More This Year Than Cutler” Osweiler.  After turning a 4-year tour backing up Peyton Manning into $72M, Osweiler has now beaten the Bears twice in his first 8 NFL starts.  And right now, I can’t decide which is worse – facing Osweiler backed by a strong defense, facing Lesnar in a UFC cage, or facing Turner behind a dumpster after drinking a bottle of Jägermeister.  But like most of Chicago today, it feels like I got all three.

Osweiler taunts Bear defense:  “That’s $2M more than Jay.”

Up until a couple days ago, there was little to be excited about for the 2016-17 Chicago Bears season.  Sure, we made a few big defensive acquisitions, but every team has a draft and makes offseason moves.  And ours just weren’t enough to rev my Bear Nation engine.  That is, until yesterday when the Bears finally cut our worst player, Robbie “Wide Left” Gould.  And they did it without another kicker on our roster, which is kind of like putting an “F U” on his pink slip.  And if you ask me, it’s not only appropriate, but I think it’s a pretty solid tactic.

Gould will probably miss the Bourbonnais water tower most –
it’s the only thing he could see or hit during training camp
