No problem but do you want us to wake you up in time for the Bears vs GB if that's the way it turns out? Frankly if the Bears do lose on Sunday I'll most likely sleep through the rest of the playoffs/SB myself. Then you can wake me again after the CBA has been signed and we all know whether or not there'll even be a season later this year!

Copy and pasted from the Saints board last week?

IF we were to play atlanta, I think our offense would come up with a better game, but against GB, at Soldier Field, I think overall we'll play them better, and who DOESN'T want our SB appearance to come at the expense of the Green Bay Packers?

If we play Atlanta our defense will pitch a shutout.

I believe it boils down to confidence. While the Bears have been good this year and they have 11 wins they have not gotten me 100% on board.
I went to my friend the Colts fan, who has 100% confidence they will win every game and he told me that the reason they he feels that way is because over time he has developed a 100%, unquestioned, concrete faith in Peyton Manning.
As a Bears fan,

-I do not have 100% confidence in Jay Cutler. I want to, I know I need to, but I cannot stop thinking that he is going to go out there and play a safe game.

-I do not have 100% confidence in Mike Martz to not go off the deep end and revert to his old ways. He did in Green Bay and it was one of the hardest things I have had to watch.

I cannot get myself to the point where deep down I know we will win. Despite watching Seattle get blown out by a Alex Smith led 49ers team a couple of weeks ago.
I think it will take time. A nice win this weekend will help, but the body fo work is not there for me to stop worrying.

If we lose I will kill Lovie Smith and blame Sarah Palin . lol

It's the playoffs, the greatest moments in the greatest sport that you have been waiting for all year long and hoping to get here. It's always more of a worry, thats what makes it great :) I don't think there has ever been a Bear playoff game I wasn't worried about, even with that great '85 team I was worried.

But to each his own as many on the other hand LIVE for the argument, live to just say negative stuff to see reactions and others just because think it gets under other's skin and others just are mostly 1/2 glass filled people. its a combination of all the above factors that at times makes it tough to ever have total confidence, its understandable,imo

Because nobody ever boos the home team at a game....
