Today we’ll look at the Bears Good Rex/Bad Rex offense and how it stacks up to the Jekyll and Hyde Indianapolis Colts defense.

Let’s start with what most people would see as the unimportant or boring matchup of this Super Bowl. The special teams.

Which of my favorite teams would I want to win a championship?
Monday, January 29th, 2007As I have been thinking about the Bears being in the Super Bowl, a question has popped into my head. Of all of my favorite teams (University of Michigan football, Chicago Cubs, Chicago Bears), which would I most want to win a championship. It has caused me great inner struggle. Which team would it be? [...]

Chicago Cubs Land OF Cliff Floyd
Wednesday, January 24th, 2007The Chicago Cubs signed free agent Cliff Floyd to a one-year contract. Floyd will backup Matt Murton and Jacque Jones at the corner outfield positions. Floyd has had an injury-plagued career. While healthy, Floyd is a solid pro hitter.

New Orleans Saints vs. Chicago Bears – NFC Championship Game Preview
Friday, January 19th, 2007So here we are. The Bears are on the verge of the Super Bowl. The only thing that stands in their way is Drew Brees and the number 1 offense in the NFL this year. If it were week 4, I wouldn’t be worried. I’d say the Bears can get their gear ready for Miami. [...]
Seahawks vs. Bears Recap
Monday, January 15th, 2007Whoa! The Bears did it. An absolutely gut-wrenching game to watch. I was so excited when Robbie Gould’s (pronounced Gold for the dopes on TV who don’t know) split the uprights and the game was over. The fact that I’m a long suffering Cubs fan has conditioned me to always be scared of losing at [...]
