Calling You Out Bears! Go Packas

Historical rivalry taking place this afternoon. The Green Bay Packers take on the Chicago Bears to determine who will take it to the Championship! Lets get some trash talking going on. I know all you Chicago boys are gonna be crying in your beers tonight!

My grandfather John Symankplayed 6 seasons for the Packers from 1957 to 1962. They won back to back Championships under Vince Lombardi.

Here is a cool pic of gramps punching Ditka right in his fat face!

Harassing the bears some more

Cool pictures and history Keegan!! I am taking the Packers in the Super Bowl.

Flavor Flav opens his 1st chicken eatery in Clinton,Iowa

Brett Favre says he'll be pulling on #12 instead of pulling on his 'own 4'

Go Pack go! I'm thinking the big game is gonna be a good one. I think the Packers are gonna take it.

Oh yeah the Pack is gonna take the cake! I will be happy to see the franchise move forward and officially end all of the Favre drama. He was great but we proved this season that we have what it takes to go the distance.

Now we've got your number Ben Rothlesstoucher!! (Thanks Eric that is funny as hell!)

Today on the news they are reporting a south Chicago auto dealer fired a car salesman Monday for wearing his Packers tie to work. Probably will end in court some day but still pretty funny. Bear fans take this stuff seriously. Don't be rubbing no salt in those wounds. I guess he will have to go to Green Bay for a job.

Irony-- Huh!

The "Terrible Towel ," furiously waved each weekend at Heinz Field by fans of the Pittsburgh Steelers, comes from a company in Wisconsin -- roughly 110 miles southwest of Green Bay.

That makes Super Bowl XLV a dream match-up for Gregg McArthur, president of McArthur Towel & Sports in Baraboo, Wisc

I heard he got a job at another dealership already. I do see a lawsuit coming though. To make the matter worse, the guys grandma (or was it mom) was a GB Packer fan, and she DIED 2 days before the NFC championship hence why he wore the packer tie. Firing someone 2 days after their grandma (or mom)died is very low. In fact that guy should have been on bereavement leave.

Bears fans are tough, they will come back next year all riled up with something to prove. They can handle the digs.

BTW, as soon as I saw Cantler's leg making a "hitch" while trying to ride the bike on the sidelines, I said it looked like he sprained an MCL. I guess I was right. Unfortunately I know all to much about ACL, MCL problems.

It sure was nice of Dallas to build the Steelers a new stadium to play the Superbowl in.

Even though the Steelers carry a future Hall of Famer, UGA grad and local boy Hines Ward, I'm going with the Cheeseheads in this one.I'm tired of seeing the Steelers in and really wanted the Jets to make it.
You couldn't ask for a better QB match up in the two that we've got. No doubt that those guys will be slinging that thing.

Go Packers!

Now thats what I'm talking about! Let the trash talking fly!

Cool story bout gramps. With the help of his future father-in-law, Richard A. Bowers, who recognized Johnnie’s potential, Symank received a scholarship to Arlington State Junior College (now the University of Texas at Arlington. As the story goes Bowers had to break out all the stops to get him the scholarship and the coach was pretty sure he had screwed up. On the first day of practice gramps was running to get under a catch and ran straight into a brick wall and was knocked out cold. Now coach is really thinking he screwed up till gramps showed up for afternoon practice the same day. That is how they played. None of this take 2 weeks off for a headache!

Perhaps Vince Lombardi described John Symank best in his 1963 book Run To Daylight. “ …There is no actor in Symank. He is serious and intense, and in a game he would just as soon break your leg as not. He has made it in this league because he gets a great deal more out of himself than his ability and size justify, and I wish I could say that about all the rest of them. Many of them will rise for one game or two, but John gets the maximum out of himself in every game, and if I had thirty-five others like him I would have a far better team than I have.”

Now thats an accolade!

Steelers I dont know what you think that tin foil curtain is going to stop! Your going down!!!

That story got quite a bit of press locally and appears to be mostly the media blowing more smoke out their backside, one article I read said:

The dealer in question is a very active sponsor/official dealer of the Chicago Bears so wearing any attire promoting otherwise would be going against the dealers entire (costly) ad campaign. The individual in question was asked to change or remove his tie and refused, subsequently he was asked to leave. Should any lawsuits be filed as a result it Sounds like frivolous litigation to me.

Any self respecting Chicago Fan will be jumping on Ben's Bandwagon, or the back of his bike if you want to live dangerously!!


PS, Keegan, very cool about Gramps, thanks for sharing.

Lovie himself said to Mike McCarthy after the game that he wants the Packers to win.



So, who's up for firing Lovie Smith next year. LOL

I guarantee the majority of the bears players want the packers to win. While the two teams hate each other on the field, they respect each other to the highest degree.

I think GB and CHi fans have more animosity towards each other than the players do.

HEY!!!!! STEELER NATION RULES!

Being a die hard Cowboy fan, and the Steelers in the AFC and have Super Bowl wins with 6 titles, I am rooting big time for Aarron Rodgers and the pack to do it! Go Packers!!

Tull. what ever happened to Clay?
