I'm a Bears fan who lives in Central Wisconsin. Okay, so the last, what?, 29 years of Favre and Rodgers has been pretty frustrating, but, so what? It's been a poorly run organization for a lot of years, so what? I don't get my self worth or self esteem from an affiliation with any sports team. My head hasn't exploded because Abe Gibron, John (I've never been fired) Fox, Marc Trestman and Matt Nagy suck as head coaches. I don't cry into my pillow at night if Packer fans chant the Bears still suck. I don't look up the addresses of the officials that make bad calls so I can give them the Nancy Kerrigan knee cap treatment.
I try to remind myself that the beer glass is half full and enjoy the many moments that are fun and memorable, you know, the John Belushi was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor moments (and then I drink so much that my head needs to be put in a five gallon bucket in the traditional frat house style - that seems to help, you know, for the most part).
