When David Akers came off the field jumping around all excited because he kicked the ball away from Devin Hester, I had to laugh.
I don't know the stats, but the Bears had to be starting off after every kickoff at the 30-35 yard line because of his high, short kicks.
When I did this painting though, I thought the Bears were gonna lose.
Of course the drive was the story of this game.
Brian Griese - you just became the man.
97 yards in less than 2 minutes with no time outs left?
Masterful.
That's usually why I watch other games, so I can say "oh, that's what a pro offense looks like."
Bears 19 Eagles 16, the winning td pass to Moose with 9 seconds left...
I was just listening to Ditka on the radio.
He says, and I agree, we'll find out who this team is next week against Detroit.
What else?
The Red Sox.
Awesome game with Jake Westbrook starting out poorly and picking up as Dice K started hot and went dicey.
So it's on to the World series with the Rockies vs. the Sox.
But my favorite part of the day was after the Bear game.
I'm out by the grill listening to the radio, and somebody's interviewing Tommie Harris.
I can't quote it exactly, but apparently Tommie started this game off praying for his hamstring, and was quite serious about it, mentioning the praying of the hamstring extended to his church group.
I laughed pretty hard, but later I thought you know...why not?
"Oh Father, I ask that you help a body part of Tommie Harris'. That his hammie be healed..."
