I just don't let it ruin my day/week any more. And this is the first year I told my wife that Sundays aren't off the schedule if she wants to plan anything. I came to this conclusion when I had my first kid in 2020. It’s not worth the passion and energy I put into the Bears. Whether they win or lose dictates how I feel for the next few days. Sunday’s are no longer off limits for me either. When the diehard fans feel this way something has to give. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stupidly I did watch the game on Sunday thinking hur dur hur this time it will be different. WRONG! SSDY over and over and over and over and over again.

I was coming back from London and arrived just in time to watch the game and passed. I haven’t watched a Bears / Packers game live since 2020. They are an embarrassment.

Pool Posted September 14, 2023 Share Posted September 14, 2023 I have probably mentioned this before but we are the only team to not hire a GM, who hires a coach, who drafts their QB in like the last 30 years. Coincidence? Nope, just stupid Bears management. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anonymousGM Posted September 14, 2023 Share Posted September 14, 2023 So I'm thinking about going to the game in Tampa, but wearing a plain white t-shirt. I'm still hesitant about going and I don't think a Cutler or a Trubisky jersey would be appropriate. I haven't bought a Fields jersey until he actually does something. Last season I knew we were going to lose so I accepted it. Still don't know how to feel about this team after week one. I tend to trust my eyes a lot in sports and I still have a good feeling about the team. I felt really good about the Cubs this off season and was surprised when they got off to such a slow start and not so surprised with their recent winning. The media tends to create their own narratives so I try to separate myself from that unless I really want to ride the roller coaster. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StLunatic88 Posted September 14, 2023 Share Posted September 14, 2023 Im sorry, I just have to point something out here; In week one Justin Fields threw for 216 yards on 65% completions and rushed for 59 yards, that is a pace for 3600+ yards passing and 1000+ yards rushing. Something about Goalposts comes to mind..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ty21 Posted September 14, 2023 Author Share Posted September 14, 2023 What is more annoying to read through: all the doom and gloom of all the fans coming back down to earth and smashing through the ground on the way to hell, or the obnoxious optimism before of all those that thought we were a super bowl team. That was never going to happen in one offseason lol. The pervasive whine of every single bears fan right now is probably more annoying.

Poles has had 2 offseasons now and they're not at all closer to being competent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
