To this day, while maintaining a healthy respect for the Giants and Jets and other teams I cover, I admit to checking the results every Monday to see how the Bears did.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I grew up in Chicago, so I've always been a Bears fan.
There's what we expect bears to do and then there's what they do. Sometimes the two don't match.
I'm the kind of guy who comes home and checks scores for everything. I'm a sports fan in general, so I pretty much keep up with who's ahead in a division and everything that's going on.
I grew up in Chicago, so I've always been a Bears fan. Dad used to take me to Bears games and Cubs games. My brother used to ride me over to Lake Forest College on his Honda Supersport and we'd watch the Bears practice. I remember those guys out there as monsters - they were the biggest things I've ever seen!
I was so lucky to walk away with two Super Bowls and know that the last year was positive.
Giants versus Jets Super Bowl. I'm telling you, that's all I want to see.
At last, the newspapers discovered the Bears. I kept writing articles about upcoming games, and by reading the papers, I learned editors like superlatives. I blush when I think how many times I wrote that the next game was going to be the most difficult of the season or how a new player was the fastest man in the West.
First of all, I want to thank the Buccaneers for giving me the opportunity and for picking me in the draft. This is the nature of the beast, though, and this is a new start for me. I wish them the best of luck, and I am just glad to be a Bear.
I don't watch a lot of the games on Sunday. But I always kept an eye on the 49ers.
I coached in Washington - and in Washington, you lose the ballgame, it's a bad Monday, I just want to tell you that.
