My Bears are going to S U C K this year
Paper mache excuse for a quarterback Rex Grossman goes down for the year due to a broken ankle...in the SECOND QUARTER OF A MEANINGLESS PRE-SEASON GAME!!! Why was he playing in the second quarter? Who gives a flying ***k about the St. Louis Rams? Hutchinson and Orton as #1 and #2 quarterbacks? Oh, woe is me. Oh, woe is the City of Chicago. Maybe next year?

1. I feel bad for him though.
Poor bastard. Poor Chicago fans. But I'm a Vikings fan, so my empathy is fleeting.

2. How're the Vikes gonna do this year without Moss?
I root for the Vikes exactly 2 times per season...guess which games?

3. Against Green Bay?
The feeling is mutual.

The Vikings will be better without Moss. I'd bet my savings on it.

4. Yep.
I also agree with you on Moss. Great talent. ores-shit additude. Hope he grows up in Oakland.

6. He'll have a MONSTER year in Oakland.
I predict 22 touchdowns and 1200 yards. He'll be phenomenal. And I'll cheer for him too. I always loved that guy, attitude or not. He bled purple for quite a while.

5. hmmm Green Bay??
I think the Vikings are going to do pretty good without Moss. We have Nate Burleson, Kelly Campbell, and if this Troy Williamson is any good, I think we may have mostly plugged the hole that Wahndy left behind...Moss was not good in the locker room, nor was he good in the community, so I was not heartbroken when he left.

7. You got it.
You won't have to worry about the Bears this year. (Not that you would have even if Grossman was healthy).

9. Hey, could be worse
You guys could have Gus Frerotte as a QB.

10. I always did, and still will love Moss.
And he'll have a HUGE year in Oakland.

By the way, don't forget about Travis Taylor. He'll have a great year at Wide Out for us. Troy Williamson won't break out until next year. But when he does, he'll do really well.

13. True dat (Travis Taylor)
I liked Moss when Carter was there to buffer him. Once Carter was gone, his behavior got unbearable for me.

11. And that would be different from any other year, how?

Don't get too mad at me, though, I live near Indy. :D

12. What is the purpose of a preseason game?
I think it's so players can get hurt and fuck up fantasy football teams like mine. I had Grossman as my #2 guy on my fantasy squad.

14. I'd be surprised if he ever comes back
Knee surgery, then ankle surgery? Bad news.

16. We were so spoiled, weren't we?
I loved watching him run. We expected him to gain 100 yards.

17. Only once in my life has my lifetime dream in sports come true
I have a framed pic of the 85 Bears hanging in my bedroom. If they win the Super Bowl one more time in my lifetime that will be good enough and then I can die.

Too bad Walter didn't score a TD in the Super Bowl.

18. Sweetness
That man was a class act, but as a Vikings fan, I hated to see him play :rofl: He usually torched us for like 300 yards.

20. I think he had his best game against the Vikes.
But he had great games against everyone.

28. That guy was downright amazing. Unstoppable.
And as a Vikings fan, I had to loathe him.

Plus he was AMAZING on Tecmo Bowl.

31. That's what happens when a team has a horrible O-line
Why haven't the Bears done anything about this? They're killing themselves!

But on the bright side, my Minnesota Vikings will take the division anyway!

:evilgrin:
