I think it's fun to see that old school teams are going to be in the Superbowl.

Brother we're usually on the same wavelength but I'd take the Pack or the Bears.  Old school ties and such.

Packers have the more polished team overall. Like I said in the beginning of the year before they suffered all those injuries "they have that Superbowl look"
they are in the top 3rd in every category offensively and defensively with teh exception of running (24th) and stopping the run (18th)

Bears have a good defense. despite being susceptible to the pass (20th) they have a very good run defense (2nd) And dont allow alot of points(4th)
But they have a mediocre offense (at best). Bottom third in points scored,Yards, Running and passing.  But, The great intangible for the Bears is Hester. His returns can turn a game around in a hurry.

On paper this shoudnt even be close. Packers in a blowout. BUT. These are divisional opponents so it could be much closer then it should be.

I still take Green Bay provided they do not kick the ball to Hester. If the Bears win it will be because of a huge play or two from Hester.

Pretty funny...

Fox News had a story on their web site touting the Bears vs Green Bay game as "being the oldest rivalry in football".   Say what?   :confused:

I put a comment after the story that they needed to check their facts better because the oldest rivalry in football is the Bears vs New York Giants.  It was an evil, bitter, angry, rivalry long before the closer proximity of the Packers rivalry ever started.

I went back a couple of hours later to see if anyone else commented....

The entire story was gone from their web site.   :lol

Well I would think that the oldest still ongoing rivalry in football would be Green Bay vs Bears, no one really thinks of the Giants as a rival to the Bears anymore, they might have been rivals a long time ago, but not really anymore, at least I've never heard about it.

Since 1921 the bears and green bay have been rivals from what I have read. This game is predicted to have record viewers nationaly. Tickets starting I guess about 400 to 500 apiece from what I have read.
The two teams have not been in the playoffs together since 1941. They played a week after pearl harbour was bombed.
Whichever way the game goes its going to be a great game.

Available tickets to the game sold out in 1 minute.

     For me the Steelers vs Ravens is really the Steelers vs Browns.  The Browns are....well....a bunch of amazinhunks participating in football in the city of Cleveland.  The Ravens are the real Browns.  Steeler fans hate the Browns...Ravens.  Who am I again?  :old: :neener:

These 2 divisional championship games will be epic to say the least.

DVD:  "CHICAGO BEARS: The Complete History"  Produced by Sobol/Reimel  (profootballdvd.com)

Disc 1, Part 2 "Rivalries"


THE BEST NFL produced history of the Bears ever made.  Well worth the investment.

The Bears actually came from a small team in Downstate IL (Pekin, if I remember right??)

Halas initially both played as well as coached the first couple of seasons.

The Bears and Giants HATED each other.  It was "First City" vs "Second City".
