The Bears might have disappointed, but at least our guys never let us down. That’s because we never have any expectations for them. Sign up at redeyechicago.com/fiveonfive.

TOPIC 1: WHAT’S YOUR FIRST IMPRESSION of THE 2007 BEARS?
The best defense in football is a terrible thing to waste.
Four turnovers and none of them are really Rex’s fault? That’s progress.
Not suprisingly, it’s of Rex Grossman getting knocked around like an extra in a Jackie Chan movie.
I think they traded the wrong running back.
If I did an adequate impression I’d lose my lunch in the process.
TOPIC 2: HOW EXCITED ARE YOU ABOUT NORTHWESTERN?
If you could only see my nipples right now.
I might be going out on a limb here, but they’re ready for Appalachian State.
Oh, maybe just a little. Let’s just say I’m wearing a diaper to the Duke game.
Next question.
More excited than I am about the Bears, I’ll tell you that!
TOPIC 3: SHOULD WE BE WORRIED ABOUT THE CUBS?
We should be very worried — and making other plans for October.
Too soon. Their eventual collapse will be far more grand than this.
Yes. The bullpen makes the Death Star look stable.
The time for worrying is over. Now it’s time to panic.
They’re no Northwestern Wildcats. I’m so depressed.
TOPIC 4: WHAT SURPRISED YOU ABOUT THE NFL ON SUNDAY?
The NFL’s decision to keep Michael Vick in a cage on the sidelines.
Randy Moss had 183 yards and zero pouting episodes. Amazing.
Break up the Texans.
No car crashes, no arrests, no one “making it rain”? Bor-ing!
Three Bears other than Rex committed turnovers. Where’s the nearest bridge?
TOPIC 5: WHAT WOULD BE YOUR STRATEGY FOR BEATING TIGER WOODS?
I’d use a 4-iron.
Teach Roger Federer how to play golf.
I’d get into his head … by kicking him in the shin.
Replace his golf balls with Ping-Pong balls.
Beg for mercy. Works for me in the dating world.
