Cold Weather and the Bears

A damn cold night at the moment, a damn colder day tomorrow, and the bottom really falls out tomorrow night during the game.

And then there's the police preparations:

• "Chicago Police will have patrol coverage focusing on the Loop, entertainment venues and other points around the city. Mounted and bike patrol units will be also deployed, as well as our helicopter for aerial patrol to support our coverage," Cline said.
  
  "We want everybody to have a good time but we want to keep everyone safe -- that's our goal," Cline said Friday at a new conference.

No matter what happens, remember, property damage can always be repaired at a later date. Most property is insured. You however, cannot be replaced, and if you happen to get damaged, insurance only covers so much of your costs before your quality of life starts to deteriorate. Be safe out there after the game. Watch yourselves. Watch your partners' backs. Be careful. That is all.
