Da Game
Division Playoffs... Bears vs. Seahawks.
I don't know folks... I don't want to be negative, but if Rex Grossman plays like he did for the majority of the season, this game will mark the end of the Bears' season. Shaun Alexander, who was injured in week 4 when they last met, is healthy... and a serious threat against a Bears' D that has been crumbling in the last few weeks. Hasselback is always a legitimate threat in the passing game.
The Bears better pull it all together if they want to go to the championship game.
I'd live blog the game, but I won't get to watch the whole thing. Not to mention that I don't really want to put that many swear words on my blog if they play like shit.
Either way,
1:12 Rasheed Davis takes away the ball from a Seahawk defender, ruining Grossman's first interception attempt. Good yardage gained, too.
1:13 Thomas Jones makes an easy run for the TD. Bears 7, Seachickens 0.
1:21 Bears' D looking pretty good... Tillman nearly picks off the pass, but bats it to Darrell Jackson. Jackson short of first down, Seattle punts. Punt is inside the Bears' ten.
1:26 Bears are stopped. Punt has no return... Burleson hit immediately.
1:38 Hey... whattya know? Seattle scores after Hasselback marches the Chickens downfield with minimal opposition. 7's to both.
1:42 Grossman to Berrian!!!! One play, long touchdown! Over sixty five yards on the play!!! Da Bears 14, Chickens 7.
1:46 Urlacher bats down a pass, forcing a Seattle punt. Bears' D is fired up after the Berrian TD.
1:52 Bears can only manage one first down, and then have to punt. Grossman looked like he may have smacked his hand on a helmet during their third down attempt.
1:55 Joe Buck again proves he's an idiot... "What's longer? A half inch, or 5/8?"
1:57 Devin Hester decides to join the business of giving out heart attacks, touching the rolling ball on the punt... redeems himself by falling on the ball.
2:05 Bears punt.
2:07 Bears hold, with a bit of help from Darren Jackson. Seattle punts, Hester bobbles... and then falls on the ball again. A flair for drama is not appreciated.
2:09 @#$%!!! Grossman feels sorry for the Chickens, and decides to fumble the ball to them.
Alexander is scaring me... twenty yards on his last two carries.
2:14 Alexander runs for a four yard TD... on fourth down. 14 all...
2:15 I've gotta run... there's two and a half minutes in half. Hopefully I can catch some more of the game, later.
9:14 Well crap... I missed it. Turns out the Bears won, and it was a damn good game!
Next up are the Saints... 'ere's hoping.
GO BEARS!!!

I leave Tampa and my Buc's fall apart. I'm in Chicagoland and well.....Sox, Bears.....I think that says it all......

Remember the Sox this year.
