Even during their bye week, the Bears still won because …
… no one left their Lamborghini on the Edens.
… they have nothing to do with this “Black Jack Taco” ad for Taco Bell.
… not getting swept by the Dodgers counts as a win in Chicago these days.
… Jay Cutler’s bye week performance was still better than the movie “Couples Retreat.”
… they didn’t lose.
How big of a problem is Minnesota gonna be for the Bears this season?
They might end up being their last problem when they meet in the playoffs.
It’s looking like their Battle of the Bulge, and by that I mean Minnesota has a lot of big people.
Remember Mr. T. In “Rocky III”? Yeah, that big.
Big. Mayor Daley has assured the Bears they have enough to win the NFC North bid.
I’ve got a special brick just waiting for my TV screen when they meet.
How do you feel about Kyle Orton now?
A ridiculous receiver like Brandon Marshall can make anyone look good. Right, Kyle?
Total paper tiger. Correction: paper alley cat.
The guy is so lucky he must own options in rabbit’s feet.
Give him the Nobel piece of crap uniform prize. Brown and yellow? Matches Elliott’s underwear, I bet.
He’s still an amateur — at growing beards.
How did Cubs fans celebrate St. Louis’ sweep out of the playoffs?
They doubled up by watching the Rams get crushed by Favre and Minnesota.
They dropped faster than a sinking fly ball to left. … Too soon?
I twittered “Mark DeRosa = 0-6” all night!
With St. Louis-style jean shorts and sleeveless shirts. No fan base can celebrate a loss better than Cubs fans.
Same way they celebrate their own losses: Beer, beer and more beer.
What Chicago athlete would you like to see run the marathon?
Patrick Kane. Let’s see how he does off the ice — and not in a cab.
Bears ball boy Darryl MaGee, but only if Johnny Knox is his pace car.
Insert Milton Bradley-running-out-of-town joke here.
Milton Bradley. Run Milton run! Straight to Tampa. Or to Detroit. Or to San Diego. Or to …
Anyone who Ozzie Guillen is chasing.
