Bears vs. Packers: 9-27-10

BEARS VS. PACKERS: 9-27-10

Des: Welcome to the first edition of the Chicago Bears football pre-game show. The Bears face off against the Green Bay Packers in a game that will determine mastery of the NFC North. Will Clay Matthews continue to lead the league in sacks after this Monday Night Midwestern Matchup against the Monsters of the Midway? Or will the Bears’ offensive line prove to be as impenetrable as the logic expressed in a typical sports talk radio show? To answer these and similar questions is our panel of experts: Concord Wainwright Peabody, Captain Silas Charles “Over the Side without a Splash” Red-beard, Modre the trans-Western guru, the Prissy Minion, and tailgater extraordinaire, Drunky McDumb-Ass.

SR: ARRRH, mateys! Whilst I would thoroughly “enjoy” answering your long-winded question whose sentence structure be more twisted than the treasure map of Davey Jones himself, I have me own convoluted agenda to pursue. And that be: Redbeard’s Treasure Map to the Super-Bowl! After ingesting the lead-based paint on me decrepit vessel and gazing into the angry storm clouds I failed to avoid, these be my picks: In the AFC, I pick the Jets, Ravens, Texans, and Broncos to win their divisions. The NFC will see the Eagles, Bears, Falcons, and 49ers. And for the wild cards, I select the Bills and Browns in the AFC and the Lions and Rams in the NFC. Why the hell not?

Des: Because all four teams suck?

SR: Aye. That they do. But I think they are successfully rebuilding… which you don’t want to be doing right after your ship has just hit an iceberg. Anyway, I foresee the Jets defeating the Eagles in the Superbowl.

Des: Uh, thanks, Captain. Barely coherent commentary, as always. Drunky McDumb-Ass. What do you foresee happening Monday Night?

DMD: Des, I foresee myself getting fired Tuesday morning when I show up for work Tuesday afternoon.

Des: Modre. How will the Bears do against Green Bay?

Modre: Perhaps we are asking the wrong questions.

Des: Yeeeeaaah…. Concord Peabody. What’s the Bears’ key to victory?

CWP: Des, the Bears are 72-43 lifetime against teams whose fans wear crappy tri-cornered hats, whether it’s the Packers or the Patriots.

Des: Prissy Minion. How do you want to finish this off?

PM: Oh, Des. Your metaphors are more mixed up than a cat in a blender.

Des: Sit back and watch with your poorly self-installed satellite dish as the Bears face off in a rivalry as ancient as that of Coke versus Pepsi… and as equally pointless.

This is totally incoherent and those picks were absolute nonsense.

I loved every minute of it.

I think one reason not to pick the Lions to win the wild card is that you have to win at least one game to do so. Not that I claim to understand the NFL or anything ... especially after that "in the process rule" non-touchdown non-catch in the first game of the season.

Yes, professional football: the only sport in which the outcome is frequently determined by filibuster.

Thus, my prediction: the Bears will fail to acquire the 60 points necessary for cloture and will lose after being distracted by Stephen Colbert entering the field of play.
