(who said that anyway). I can't help but be skeptical about any Chicago team (they all seem to choke in the big games). I have tried to not say "the Bears will win" all along, but there is no reason (including the Patriots) that they should lose. The only thing I think it is safe to predict is that if the Bears are going to lose, I think everyone in the world will know it by the end of the first quarter. I also think that Ditka is one hell of a motivator (give him a few years and he will be in Shula's class), so he won't let the Bears not be ready! By the way, the only offensive measure that I haven't seen used against the Bears this year is the quarterback calling his own number (scrambles, QB draws, etc.), which might negate some of the heat from the defensive line. If the Bears lose, they ought to be called the CHI-CAW-GO Bears, after the sound that a crow makes going down (CAW). mike schwartz @ 3Com Corp.
