Bears Bites: Perfectly fowl day
Kind of a perfect ending to a perfectly fowl day … and season, huh?
Harsh, yet realistic:
"You've got to take a long, hard look at (Phil) Emery … and Ted Phillips. I'm telling you, folks, it's upstairs. The problem has been up there for quite a while."
- WSCR postgame analyst Ed O'Bradovich
The Bears ...:
Are the canned cranberries on the plate in the corner of the Thanksgiving table.
Not sure what that means, but it sounds about right.
Lesson learned:
I didn't know that Bears emit tryptophan, too.
Which was ickier?
The final three quarters of the game, or that new Old Spice commercial?
The prediction:
Jeff Joniak will be about 17 percent less growly the rest of the way.
But Bears fans will be about 100 percent more growly in the weeks to come … and rightly so.
But, hey:
The kickoff coverage was pretty good!
Be thankful:
No longer do you have to look at the schedule and try to figure out how in the world they'll get to 10 wins.
