If the Bears take care of their own business, they do not have to worry about the Vikes.
this^^ I might be just a little bitter at them having two HOF QB's in a row, but the first order of business every season needs to be crushing any hope these arrogant, cheesy, sister fingering, livestock seducing, first cousin marrying inbred weirdos have of getting another ring. Once they are dead and buried then Go Bears! xD
That was awesome. Thank you. If there's a Post Of The Year contest I'm going to think of this.

(Never forget, they're "shareholders". They "own" the team. LOL.)

Interesting "Yes Mitch" and "No Mitch" in the same post! :evilgrin:
LOL. Good point. We might want to start answering questions around here with either the "Yes" version of Biscuit or the "No" version of him.

That is SO FRICKING hilarious!! I will say that, some of the best teams that have ever played in professional sports (baseball, football, basketball) are the ones that had the most fun. The ones that were the most relaxed.

It's been a LONG time since we have been able to say that we have a Bears team worth rooting for, and seems like they are trying to make up for all of it in one season. This team is GOOD, they are FUN, and they are FOR REAL!!

As long as they don't fall for a trap game against the Giants, and they are healthy for the Rams game. I'm just saying...the Rams better be ready. This is like no other team they have face this year.

I want to see the Packers implode, fire McCarthy, then spend the next 30 years being the shit on the bottom of the shoe going through dozens of coaches and dozens of QB's without ever getting things right

like the Bears did for so many many years

Could you imagine, if in three years, we are looking at the Packer game like an automatic win? Holy crap that would be beautiful.

I think it'll be sooner than that. We play them in what, three weeks?

Not sure full implosion has occurred yet, but they're close. If they lose another offensive playmaker i.e. St. Brown or Williams. They will collapse. Rodgers looked frustrated and exasperated with the Vikings game, and on the verge of disinterested. It's going to "my way or the highway" for McCarthy next year (do it Aaron's way or get lost). That relationship is now toxic.

C'mon UOK! Let's get the Giant's thread posted!

I was skulking around a few Giants' fan forums. I believe some of the comments surrounded the idea that Mack and Hicks were going to do evil and unholy things to their OL and Eli Manning. Needless to say, they aren't too confident.

I think it means someone else had predicted the same score before you.

At 1st I thought that you left off my score by mistake..
I Knew that I put in a last minute prediction for the Thanksgiving day game.
The I searched through the pages & and I found my prediction.

Due to all of the cooking & prep I put mine in late...
I think the game was still 0~0 in the end of the 1st quarter/start of the 2nd.

Can mine still be counted for.?
.. I don't remember the exact prediction.. but I believe I was very close.

then why isn't it listed with the other 2 people with 96?
96 southdakbearfan / Mikefive
seems to me that should read :

96 southdakbearfan / Mikefive / Boris13c

southdakbearfan predicted 31-20 before you did.
Mikefive predicted 27-24.

The 96 is Middleguard's arcane formula that refers to the difference from the actual score.

I saw your late prediction and rejected it. You threw in the red flag. The ruling on the field should have been confirmed... but it wasn't (it's the season of goodwill and it won't affect the standings significantly).

Your score is 26 and would have been listed as a duplicate of a previous 24-20 prediction.

Great... I have a feeling I'm going to need that extra timeout at the end of this game :)
