However, I'm so glad that Chicago is revelling in the Bears' success - there are no guarantees in the end, so why not enjoy it? Did anyone see Chris Collingsworth on the Sunday night telecast? LOL He looked stunned that the Bears, of all teams, would put up that kind of offensive performance. In fact, most of the national media is rather dumbfounded as well. I can hardly blame them, but Rex is the real deal.

I wish I could have been at SF for that game - what an experience that must have been, Scav. I just hope the players don't pay attention to the media; they are getting a lot of attention now, with many putting them at the top of the list as far as teams to beat for the Super Bowl. I say just ignore the media and take it one game at a time; I trust Lovie and the staff and I think, also, that the Bears learned from last year and their playoff loss to Carolina.

Plus, Da Bears have the coolest uniforms in the NFL.

I sometimes lose touch with Chicago and forget how awesome of a city I have 10 miles away. I live in the burbs and alot of the cooler things have moved towards the money per say. I have been down there my whole life, been to probably 25 Bear games, 150 Cubs games, ~20 Bulls game, couple DePaul (when Quentin was their and all their corruptness) and Wolves game. Got to see the Bulls once (Jordan) in the old Chicago stadium. Chicago thru and thru and I am going to start making my way down their more often. I always catch my eyes all over the place down there because their is so much to look at.....
