coaches smith and dungy

I just found this. Posted January 23, 2007:

Lovie Smith of the Bears was followed by Colts' head coach Tony Dungy in a matter of four hours to become the first African American coaches in the big game's 41-year history.

"It means a lot," said Dungy, according to the Associated Press. "I'm very proud to represent African-American coaches."

Not only are they making history representing African-American coaches, but both
coaches are also representing Christ.

"The Lord set this up in a way that no one would believe it," said Dungy, according to the Baptist Press. "The Lord tested us a lot this year, but He set this up to get all the glory."

colts are champs

The Bears came out with a 92 yard kickoff return for a touchdown! The first time in NFL history that such a feat has been accomplished. The Bears game up a touchdown the Colts' first drive, but they missed the extra point. The Bears scored again, making it 14 - 6. From there on out it was all Colts. The final was 29 - 17, Colts. It was disappointing for me, but everyone else at the party was rooting for the Colts, so most everyone was happy. It was nice to see the Bears make the playoffs and even the Superbowl for the first time since I've been a fan, since I was five years old. Jason Procknow (died at the age of 17 or liver cancer; never drank), a friend from Boulder City, NV, introduced me to Chicago sports, and the Cubs and Bears have been my teams ever since. Oh, well, I enjoyed the game while the Bears were ahead. Praise the Lord sports don't make life go round. And praise the Lord that the Colts' head coach is a believer and made that profession when he was awarded the trophy. God knows what He's doing, I can tell you that.

Well, watching the Superbowl has not been something I'd always had to do, but this year is different: da BEARS! The Bears are in the Superbowl for the first time since I've been a fan, that is, since I was five. And how better to watch the Superbowl than on a 42" Plasma with the video feed coming through a media center pc with an HDTV card. I'm soaking it all in. The Ogles have openned up their home to us and some of their friends, and we'll be enjoying the game together, and kickoff is less than an hour away now. GO BEARS!

bears vs colts

The Colts were down 18 points to the Patriots, but came back to win the AFC 38 - 34 in the last minute. It was a great, close game for the entire second half. Both teams were playing very well, but the Colts (whom I was rooting for) pulled it out. They will now move on to lose to the Bears in SuperBowl XLI in two weeks in Miami. GO BEARS!

da bears

I've been a Bears' fan since I was five. Jason Procknow introduced me to Chicago teams, and I still like the Cubs and Bears. I used to like the Bulls, too, but then I switched to the Suns in the 92-93 season when the Suns and the Bulls played each other in the finals. The Bulls won, but I've been a Suns fan ever since (if you can't tell by my other posts). The Bears beat the New Orleans Saints today at Soldier Field in Chicago, IL. The final score was 39 - 14. The Bears are in the Superbowl! This is the first time in a long time that I've even cared about who was in the Superbowl, but this time I totally do. The Bears will either take on the Colts or the Patriots, whomever wins the AFC Championship game that is underway right now, Patriots up 21 - 3. The Superbowl will be played in Miami this year. Superbowl XLI is February 4th, and the Bears will win! GO BEARS!
