NFL Beef Thread

[Valandil]

The Bears are just SO BAD this year! It really stinks! They got us all excited two years ago with the 13-3 season, then hit some injuries last year - and went 4-12 (an all too common number in recent years!). THIS year, they don't even seem to be IN most games!!! Especially the first three weeks. Then they beat Oakland - but Oakland was not at all playing well. The last two weeks they've LOST to other teams that were not playing very well! (playing down to their opposition I'd say!)

HELP!!! Send us a quarterback, a running back, an offensive line, an offensive coordinator! BIGGER defensive linemen! Cornerbacks! New ownership!!!!!

Oh - and they've got this NEW stadium that's a total joke! We're the NFL's second-largest market, and the team just opened play (Monday night of week 4 - total trouncing by the *sob* PACKERS!) in the league's second-smallest stadium. It was ram-rodded through local government ("the Chicago way"), makes great use of public money, is an eyesore to an otherwise gorgeous lakefront - an awkward attempt to integrate the new and old - plus, it was kept at a location which, while giving beautiful TV camera shots of the city, totally devastates local traffic just before and after games. There were all these proposals about how it could be done better, bigger, cheaper, on a better location - but no, they'd have none of that!

SHEESH!
