So, how many guys do we need to get to bombard Leno's twitter to get an invite to the wedding for someone special on here?

Let's do this, what's the hashtag we're going with?

I was going to add a link to this thread but given the ali express element...

I was thinking about this on my drive home from work.... do you realize how many things had to happen for this shirt to arrive before this game? Our original order on October 31st processed but was never sent. BWN pm's me that we should get him a shirt so we went ahead and did that. The item wasn't supposed to arrive until today (Monday) but instead arrived Saturday. The first day wab wears it for a game, our Chicago Bears defeat the Green Bay Packers to clinch the NFC North (and THERE IS YOUR DAGGER to their post-season dreams) and top fucking top it all off, the dude on wab's back PROPOSES to his girlfriend after the game! I mean this is fate guys, how fucking insane is this??

Ugh, it's now my lucky shirt.

Although I wanted to burn it when he had the false start the first play of the game.

Leno experiences first winning season in his career

Leno beats the Packers at home for the first time in his career

Leno becomes an NFC North Champion

Leno gets engaged

Leno voted as a Pro-Bowl alternate

Have a week!! :lol:

Leno finds out his fiancée has a checkered twitter past.

Holy shit storm Batman. People digging in everyone's past as soon as they make the news. Maybe Charles knew of this. Who knows, but what the fuck is wrong with peeps? One, don't post shit on twitter that you may live down later. 2) Delete your damn twitter account if you ever had one.

People are shitty. Everyone wants to dig up dirt on everyone else. Some is justified, but this...I don't know. Seems just like people not wanting to see other people happy.

I just know I'm glad there wasn't social media when I was in high school/college.

there is an actual industry for this led by the likes of TMZ and other copycat pseudo-news groups

and yeah, it is pretty shitty

Whenever I hear that "kids these days" crap, I always think to myself how lucky that person must have been to be the only truly intelligent kid in the history of the human race.

Kids today aren't more greedy, they aren't dumber, or lazier. The only difference between this current generation of teenagers/20-somethings and every generation before them is documentation.

How is she being racist when she is seriously professing her love for people of a different color in most of the tweets? The woman is obviously not, nor appears to ever been, racist. People these days are so eager to get attention they throw shit at the wall and someone always comes and licks it off. Just mentioning a different skin color does not makes you racist, saying something derogatory does and she did not do that.

yes ... and on that note, where are the promised pics wab? well, actually, you weren't the one who promised them, but you are the one with the shirt expected to deliver them

I would think we would have had a couple by now ... maybe even 1 with you wearing your new NFC North Champions hat

Just wanted to say a huge thank you to the guys who recommended the Ali website. It may take a while but both my Mack and 10 jerseys arrived today and I am impressed at the quality for the price. Amazing quality I’d highly recommend anyone to buy through them. Top work and a very happy England bear this morning.
Have a great day

If that doesn't make wab this year's MVP (Most Valuable Poster) I don't know what does. Keep wearing that lucky shirt wab! If its magic continues then maybe we'll be clubbing together to buy a Super Bowl patch to sew onto it.

It would be so fitting if wab's Leno shirt somehow became the good luck charm that (seemingly) propels to Bears to the stratosphere of success.

I'm firm in my belief that on a board with many awesome moments over the years, this is a strong contender for the greatest/funniest thing to happen on Bears Fans Online, at least since I've been hanging around here. Credit to G08 and the rest of the posters that made this happen, and to wab for being a good sport about it.
