Hey Srika, have any pics of the AON building and Prudential building where they used the office lights to spell out Go Bears?

 

^^^ I was out too late.. those lights were off. I will try to get em this weekend. Sux cuz one of my intentions was to get a skyline shot but not all the lights were on. I did get this though:

 

we'll talk about that on Monday...

 

Bear:

n., a massive and dangerous carnivorous or omnivorous mammal, massive bodies with coarse heavy fur, strong claws and sharp teeth


Colt:
n., a baby horse.









VS.




Seems pretty clear to me...

 

That's great. Go Bears.

 

Super Bowl News



CHICAGO (NP) -- Chicago Bears football practice was delayed nearly two hours today after three Bears offensive players reported finding an unknown white powdery substance on the practice field. Head coach Lovie Smith immediately suspended practice while police and federal investigators were called to investigate. After a complete analysis, FBI forensic experts determined that the white substance unknown to the offensive players was the goal line.



Practice resumed after special agents decided the team was unlikely to encounter the substance again...



GO COLTS!!!! Good luck to Manning and the team this weekend!!!

 

can't fckn wait for this game... this has been the longest 2 weeks....ever!!!!

 

 

great mix srika!

 

I've become indifferent to who wins this game. The only thing I hope for is that Rex plays well (i.e. dosent throw 10 picks), otherwise its going to be a game.

 

any plans on adding the vocals? That would be sweeeet.

 

 

did you guys see the forcast in miama for the game ??

 

yea originally I didnt put the vox in, just how I felt. but after hearing it at a club last night, I am gonna put the chorus in, it would sound a lot better. doing that today.

 

schweet. Clubbin on a Thursday night, eh?

Still think the best "BeaRemix" was a Dub of "Bear Down, Chicago Bears". Wasn't even the synths that got to me, more so than the seemless flow of the beat with the original song.

Oh, and I can't wait to hear the edit. I myself have been in quite a D&B phase lately, don't know why

 

I got sucked into a bet based on a simpsons episode. If the colts win I have to mow my buddys lawn in a dress, and if the Bears win he has to mow mine in a dress. Also a little side action... If Peyton throws for 4+ TD's I owe him $50. If the Bears return a punt, kick, or FG for a TD then he owes me $50. Im sooo not looking forward to the 4th quarter. The only reason I picked the bears is cuz I gave him first pick.

 

Ohh, and I only have 2 posts to go.

 

@ gocubs...

every night is a potential clubbin night :P

at least for now lol

 

 

You better start pickin' that dress out now!

Thats great though....that will be priceless. Whoever wins either way...you will have to come back and post photos!! Thats rivalry at its best and all in good fun! The stories will fly for YEARS after too.

 

I just want to say how pissed I am that the superbowl is on at 2 am....

 

And hey...quit making fun of our team name and mascot....sometimes you get what you get when you have to "gank" you team under the cover of darkness.


Seriously though...we are feelin' good in this town today! Either way...it is an honor to at least have made it this far. But I think Peyton is gonna give em a run for their money! We just gotta get our defense up...and if they hold out...we should come out on top!

 

Are you kidding me?

Bears fans read this

http://www.sportsline.com/nfl/story/9970489

Who is this clown?

 

Ha!!! I got an email today with all the indy stuff in it. I wonder who initialled started it and then switched it.

 

If I can wake up for every Arsenal match, I'm sure you could stay up till around 5 or 6 max to watch the game.

 

I could tape it, but thats not the same....although, I can legally bet on it...

 

I'm sure many realistic Bears fans will tell you that they feel the Colts are damn good opponents. Saying otherwise is simply idiotic. Most I talked to and myself included were hoping the Pats won, since the pressure of winning again vs. Chicago would have been present. I think this is Manning's year, as well as Dungy's, I'm not going to lie.

That having been said, the Bears are riding a much stronger roller coaster heading into the match, with everyone on their backs and so much Manning D::k sucking. My goodness all you here on ESPN is "Manning this" and "Dungy that". Any Bears coverage is "They're lucky Tank Johnson is playing" or "Grossman isn't going to show up" or NOW "Riveria is really being distracted".

We get it guys, YOU DONT WANT CHICAGO TO WIN. It'd look better if Manning won. But if the Bears DO win, oooh man would you guys feel a butterfly in your stomach. The only Bears supporters are their ever so true fans this year. I still think it'd be a shock if the Bears won.

Just because I'm realistic though doesn't mean I'm die-hard...

 

Not really a big fan of either team, but because i'm a big Florida fan and the University of Florida is represented by Rex Grossman, i'll have to say GO GATORS!!!!!!!!!

 

^ 1 exception to the "Bears fan love only rule: . The Bears Nation thanks you for your support. :gatorchomps:

 

I know how it is being a Chicago fan right now... just like last month being a Gators fan. All you hear is about is how one team is going to dominate the other. I am pulling for the Bears to do just like Florida did to Ohio

^^^ Damn, a lot has changed. #10 is funny because Bucktown/Wicker Park is one the most expensive places to live now, easily find million dollar homes there. I'm hoping that happens to Logan Square.

 

I bet you in 20 yrs that possibly some parts of the South side will also be expensive places to live too

Some parts of the west side are getting expensive, my friend looked at those new townhouses and condos they are rehabbing in University Village by UIC, they're like $400,000-$500,000.

 

My uncle's got a place down there. Funny thing is, you're right about the currenty price. He bought it 2 years ago for $100,000 less. Amazing what 2 years did to the price.

 

this was a bit of a rush job.. had to get it out. but i added the chorus.

Whats funny is I thought Rex was a passer, not a catcher. What gives?

 

What's funny was that it took Rex one full season as a QB to reach the Superbowl...and Manning a bazillion. What gives?

 

Well isn't this Rex's 3rd season? Maybe if the line protected him from getting injured. That being said, put Rex on any other team and he couldn't do what Peyton would do for that team.

 

Third season...? Sure, if you want to count years...but, only really the first.

And sure, mebbe if Rex had the same kind of line as Peyton, he would do what Peyton couldn't do for a team: lead them to a Superbowl too and not take 2 million years to get there.

 

Go BEARS!
