Bears in Baltimore


  • Getting off the bus running isn't the only issue the Bears have. Getting off the plane, period, proved to be an adventure this weekend.

    The team left O'Hare International on a United Airlines charter flight Saturday night, nearly 24 hours after it attempted to depart for Baltimore, a trip hampered by mechanical issues and a potentially record-breaking storm here that continued late into the evening and was expected to dump more than 20 inches of snow.

    The Bears took off shortly after 8 p.m. and were scheduled to arrive at a closed Baltimore/Washington airport at 10 p.m. Their game Sunday with the Ravens has been moved to 3:15 p.m.
ESPN has the Ravens by a TD-plus. Of course, the Ravens are still in the playoff hunt.

And the real action is the Blackhawks vs Detroit later.

Can they just forfeit, or do we have to wait for the fourth and final interception?
Or maybe this week the Bears can use THREE timeouts on one play.

Ravens: 17
Bears: 3

Hawks: 3 OT
Wings: 2

I was dreaming when I wrote this, forgive me if I go astray.
I saw a photo of the green Witch from Oz...zzzzz...
Aunt Bea: Wicked Witch of the West "I'll get you my pretty, and your little dog, too!"
Daley: The Great Oz "You people should consider yourselves lucky that I'm granting you an audience tomorrow instead of 20 years from now.”
Dorothy Brown: Dorothy "Toto, I have a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore."
Huberman: Toto "I'm a lap dog, arf."
Jody Weis: Cowardly Lion "If I was the King of the Forest."
Masters: The Scarecrow "If I only had a brain."
Obama: The Tin Man "The Po-Po acted stupidly. Oh yeah, Healthcare, I mean, Oil!"
Mobile Strike Force: Flying Monkeys "Yo-ee-Yo. YO! Eee-YO!"
Avis LaVelle Consulting Services LLC (ALC): Glinda the Good Witch "You've killed her so completely, That we thank you very sweetly, Let the joyous news be spread, The wicked, old witch at last is dead."
C.A.P.S.: The Lollipop Guild "From now on you'll be history, And we will glorify your name
You will be a bust..."
Burger Queen: Wicked Witch of the East "Ding Dong The Witch is Dead!"
Toddler Stroger: Mayor of Munchkinland "As mayor of the Munchkin City
In the county of the land of Oz, I welcome you most regally, But we've got to verify it legally."
Cook County Medical Examiner Nancy Jones: Munchkinland Coroner "As Coroner, I thoroughly examined her, And she's not only merely dead, She's really most sincerely dead."
Jane Byrne: Auntie Em "There's no place like home."
50 Alderpersons: Munchkins "Follow the Yellow Brick Road!"
Mark Donahue: Emerald City Guard "It has been many years since anyone asked me to see Oz," he said, shaking his head in perplexity. "He is powerful and terrible, and if you come on an idle or foolish errand to bother the wise reflections of the Great Wizard, he might be angry and destroy you all in an instant."

Ain't that the truth.
(Actual lines from the film.)

So, I read yesterday and it's on the Sports news that Lovie WILL BE BACK with the Bears in 2010.


Whoever said THAT in the Bears organization should be fired just for that statement. Wait till the end of the season, at least. What if they lose every game for the rest of the season? There's no reason to think they won't.


They are 5-8 now. Even if they are able to beat the lowly Detroit Lions, they won't beat the Ravens or Vikings. That leaves them at 6-10 for 2009. Not really a reason to continue to pay millions to this Jerry Angelo/Lovie Smith regime.


I agree with you, SCC. Here come the Hawks! The mighty Blaaackhawks! Tied for the fewest number of goals allowed in the entire NHL (who'd have predicted THAT before the season?) and with the best W-L record in their division. This may very well be their year!

scc, glad to see that you mentioned the blackhawks again--- they are the hottest ticket in town--- the hawks beat a good bruins team friday night and face the red wings tonite at the uc on wgn 1800 hrs.... watch for the hawks to show no mercy as they pummel a team that has dominated them for the past decade.... the hawks are just to good on offense and defense and have 2 hot goal tenders--- nobody wants to play the blackhawks especially in chicago at the madhouse on madison....

Two lucky winners of $1000 television vouchers were drawn on December 15, 2009 at FOP with Interactive Health Solutions. Unfortunately, the entrants did not list their names on the winning tickets.

The winning numbers are 480186 and 480161. The winning ticket holders have until close of business on January 14, 2010 to contact Jessica at the Lodge at 312-733-7776. Additional winning tickets will be drawn if the original winners fail to contact the Lodge.

At least now we know that Smith is on the launchpad, along with Turner & others. Well deserved!
Too bad Angelo & Phillips might stay! Just look at today's highlights & see all the touchdowns around both leagues scored by ex-Bear receivers, as happens every week. Let's
see: Pick losers,injury prone players, or defective characters in upper round drafting, develop marginal players & cut them or trade them rather than play them or pay them when they start to shine(only to see them star for other teams), throw your shoulder out of joint patting yourself on the back every time you re-sign a dud or pick up another team's duds. Call useless plays at every opportunity, which the other teams know are coming. Waste the clock.
Arm tackle on defense, or make a useless swipe at the ball as the
runner/receiver runs past you for
the long gain or T.D. Keep repeating "We are really better than this" as you flush yourselves
down the sewer. Or whisper the Cub's favorite: "Wait till next year!"
Hey Hey, Holy Mackerel, no doubt about it...BOTH TEAMS SUCK!!!!
Now I will pour a scotch & sing X-mas carols like "Lie down Chicago
Bears" or "Choke Cubs Choke".

Even God tried to stop these idiots from getting to Baltimore by arranging for a snow storm that burried the city. However, our resourceful slugs still managed to arrive and get their asses kicked.

Fuck the cubs.
