davidball Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 OK, we are accustomed to seeing good defense . . . a running attack - this we are familiar with . . . but a quality, down the field, over the top passing game? Pinch me, I must be dreaming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XD Niner Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 You can thank Steve Spurier and the Florida Gators for providing a top-notch quarterback to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigDave Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 You can thank Steve Spurier and the Florida Gators for providing a top-notch quarterback to you. And you can thank Bloomington (IN) South High School before that. He threw 5 touchdowns in the state championship his senior year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AikiDale Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 I'd like to be a gentleman and congratulate the Bears on their success this season. But I just can not bring myself to do it. Been a Packers fan too long to wish the Bears well. I'll just try to take some solace if we lose the heated race for next years first draft pick....

Been a Packers fan too long to wish the Bears well. This is completely understandable and acceptable. In the spirit of sportsmanship, I'm not even going to mention the opening game shutout handed to the Packers by the Bears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KentG Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 It makes no difference. The Colts will prevail. I cant wait to go to the game on Sunday. The bears are just playing to be the ones who get beat in the SB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidball Posted January 15, 2007 Author Share Posted January 15, 2007 So who Da Bears gonna beat in the Super Bowl, Colts or Pats? Aren't we being a bit presumptious? I would not take the Saints lightly . . . It makes no difference. The Colts will prevail. I cant wait to go to the game on Sunday. The bears are just playing to be the ones who get beat in the SB. Before the playoffs began, I would have stated that the Bears match up very well against the Colts. But since the Colts defense has stepped up, I think anyone of the four remaining teams has as good a chance as any of the others to ultimately prevail.

The weather looks to be nice cold day so Im gonna state the obvious and say it will help the Bears. Brees has plenty of cold weather experience but as a team the aints will be more likely to be affected. The NFC is going to have the 7th different team go to the SB in 7 years I think and the NFC has been the weak sister for at least that long it seems. Anything is possible but most will have to agree the SB will really be this weekend in the Hoosier Dome. I used to be, and still am to a degree, a Bears fan but after 15 years of sitting in the Dome rooting for our Colts Im so pumped Im about to explode. Mark my words, years from now Peyton will go down as the greatest QB to have played the game SB or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Di Vita Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 The Bears are weakest downfield...which the Saints are pretty damn effective at. Another thing to consider is the Saints will be playing in near 0 degree temperature. I forsee the Colts vs. the Saints in the Superbowl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Di Vita Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 Naw of course I know the Pats won 3 of the last 5. In fact I love that team because they are actaully a team. The Colts beat them once this year already and they are also 9 - 0 at home. It's really a crap shoot, but I'm going with the Colts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m.e.t. Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 David, We share the same condition. We could be a Colts fan because of location. But are BEAR fans by birth. Keep the faith. GO BEARS MIKE..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidball Posted January 20, 2007 Author Share Posted January 20, 2007 David,We share the same condition. We could be a Colts fan because of location. But are BEAR fans by birth. Keep the faith. GO BEARS MIKE..... You know, I really do like the Colts. I'm a big fan of Tony, Peyton, Marvin, Joseph, etc., mostly because they are good people, but also because they are very good at what they do and they are the local team. But when the navy and orange of the Bears take the field, I have a deep emotional reaction that only comes from being a fan for as long as I can remember. And I remember watching Butkus and Sayers. And, unfortunately, Avellini and Concannon. Which is why my palms are sweating right now just thinking about tomorrow's game and the possibility of a second trip to the "big one" (I dare not say it out loud).
