yes, but our sports threads deserve to be out on the front page of ramblings for all to see, while the photography threads are stuffed in a wet corner of the Ramblings basement

any Chicagoans/ Bears fans on this board that couldnt help but keep thinking about this upcoming game? I confronted a friend of mine, who shared my same thoughts as well. Carolina looks pretty scary, guys..

Whiskers

I want you to hurt Carolina.

Yumcha

Meh. You're just like any Chicago sports fan. Paranoid and worried even if the team is up 3 games to zip or up 80-zip.




I think Da Bears will be fine come Sunday. I'm quite sure this year's playoff game will not be like the last time they were in it (against Philly)...GO BEARS!

gocubsgo55

hopefully. i really dont want football season to end, especially after the pain i went through during baseball season. i dont want to turn my focus 100% onto the Cubs, yet. Hoping for a Bears victory, badly.

whiskers, it's not my decision, but i bet they'll try it

seattle dale

i think the Bears & my Seahawks will be a great NFC championship Game!

Week after next right, in Seattle

GreenMonster

I hate the bears... It all goes back the to superbowl XX (1986)... Sure it's been 20 years, but I'm still bitter

sasha

I wish I am there in Seattle for the games

seattle dale

i might be best if you watch your skins from a distance, it would be a hell of a long plane ride back to d.c.



i'm sorry that was uncalled for.

Yumcha

Bah, be happy. At least the Cubbies traded away Patterson!

Always Dirty

I'm not normally one to bet on sports, but the Pats +3 was too good to pass up.

or atleast this week..... as much as it hurts go Steelers , and Broncos

The pats just need to go home. Brady's whinning bothers me almost as much as the Belichick(sp) team philosphy(anyone remember Cle?) or the hey look at me I had a stroke but have enough heart to make a come back.

In the NFC I hope Was gets spanked and the panthers move on.

Yumcha

My picks:

SEA
CHI
DEN
IND

JimmyCarter

I don't see how you could hate the patriots for anything other than the superbowl rings. They're probably the least flashy/egotistical/obnoxious team out there

Always Dirty

I think that (and the rings) is exactly what he has a problem with.

Lets see.....

Ty Law
Brady's whinning
Belichick(sp) team philosphy(anyone remember Cle?)
the hey look at me I had a stroke but have enough heart to make a come back.
their fans annoy me with the we never lost a game in the franchise history attitude


for the least flashy/egotistical/obnoxious they certainly get a ton of airtime about them not being flashy/egotistical/obnoxious

just my

Ahhh but there is one missing in there!

peacefrog

Seriously Belichick needs to lose the sweat shirts.

JimmyCarter

Airtime vs personality are two completely different things.

Always Dirty

With a fist like this he could walk around in nothing but tube socks and people would still respect him.

All personality:
whinning about not being considered competition
ty law when he was there
the Brady "chip on his shoulder this year"
their fans annoy me with the we never lost a game in the franchise history attitude

wstevens

No offense to Belichick, but Don Knots (Three's Company era) could coach the Pats to a Super Bowl win with Brady as QB.

Very similar to Bill Walsh. Sure, great coach, but he had Montana at QB.

From cbs rumor mill
Tampa Bay Buccaneers Updated:01/09/2006
The Bucs are reportedly interested in WR Terrell Owens, according to the Tampa Tribune.

wstevens

Cool! I'd love to see Tampa Bay implode! I'd also like to see someone ruin Chris Simms confidence by constantly questioning his ability!

Ol Blue Eyes

wstevens

You heard me. Mr. Ferley could coach the Pats to a Super Bowl win.

gocubsgo55

well, I did some research, and found that the Panthers have not, at any time this season, won 2 straight games against teams with above .500 records. Also, the Bears have only given up 5 TDs at home, over 10 points once, and lost only once (to the game I went to !).

Doom878

I wouldn't be that worried about Carolina's O. Their D was tight last week so Chicago needs to prey their O works. I had Thomas Jones on my Fantasy League and I don't recall a lot of 100 yard games towards the end. Near that but not over.

Jonesi

Keyshawn worked out so well there.. I can't imagine how well TO would do..

bent09

iTrader: (1)

Keyshawn = over rated
TO = TD

I would love for TO to go to Tampa. He will be humbled like Keyshawn in Dal. He is competitive. He would have caught that ball

gocubsgo55

WHAT?! Hey, TO has got the talent, no questions asked. But don't you think its a HUGE gamble to take? I say, he's got ONE MORE shot, and if he blows it, he's done. We'll have to wait and see, and I give kudos to the team who pays him and takes that gamble.

Doom878

Exactly

Young QB + TO =

03SSMTL-S

after seeing what TO did to phili, i would perfer he go DALLAS so i don't have to worry about them for the next couple of years.

Jonesi

I wouldn't say he's humble in Dallas, I've seen many arguments on the sideline with Bledsoe..
