Bears Fan: Trick question! Cutler is God!
tloz: What?
Bears Fan: messily devours entire pizza

Gizflam the Bears
Gizflam the Bears, their fans and their stupid faces.
Or to paraphrase Tupac:
Gizflam Cutler, Gizflam Forte, Gizflam Lovie, and Gizflam Chicago, as a city, as a franchise and a gizflaming team. And if you wanna be down with Chicago, than gizflam you too.
Seriously. I’m attending GT v VT with my girl (GT student) and seriously considering not cheering as loudly so I can truly let slip the dogs of war Sunday night without rupturing vocal chords.
Maybe there is no Heaven. Or maybe this is all pure gibberish — a product of the demented imagination of a lazy drunken hillbilly with a heart full of hate who has found a way to live out where the real winds blow — to sleep late, have fun, get wild, drink whisky, and drive fast on empty streets with nothing in mind except falling in love and not getting arrested...Res ipsa loquitur. Let the good times roll.

OBLITERATION!!
Thats what I see happening to the bears on Sunday night!! Falcons at HOME in front of a NATIONAL television audience equals, the falcons playing 2 consecutive games as a complete team with all phases of the game clicking and scoring 40+ points!!!!
I think the bears will score with us for the first half but the second half we leave them in the dust, scoring 17 unanswered points, thus making the final score 41-21, falcons annihilate the bears in atlanta to go to 4-1 on this young season and move into a tie in the NFC South due to a Saints loss to the Giants 20-17.
LETS GO FALCONS
L-DAWG
This guy...
I like the cut of your gib.
