pretty sure everyone on this board is old enough to share that same sentiment
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

You think I'll give up on the pics, but I'll just sit here, wait, and breathe.

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.

Ordered my Navy #29 Cohen jersey from AliExpress yesterday. $22 for a jersey (that includes first time order $3 discount) is crazy cheap. (NFLShop wanted $99.) We'll see how it goes, even though I don't expect it to arrive until our season is over. But that's OK. :-)

Are these shirts ok quality, really want one but don't know if its better to save and get "an official one" or jump in and get a far-east one. Any views?

I don't believe it, I think we will probably need 4-6 more games starting next season just to make sure all the magic has worn off.

My #29 Cohen home navy jersey arrived today, 20 days after shipment.

I'm surprised at how nice it is for $22. Numbers and letters professionally sewn on. Nothing ironed on. Color and size right. Everything's straight and nice and sized properly. Has NFL logo and looks authentic.

Love it! :cheer:

Many thanks to the guys who recommended aliexpress.com. :toast:
