Garrett Duke

Well y'all. . .I have been trying to mend my broken heart since Sunday. I may never be the same. Though I have to admit it was nice being on the winning side this year. This is the best season they've had in over a decade. Ben Johnson is the coach the Bears have needed since Lovie Smith. Caleb Williams is one of the best QBs they've had. It has been a fun season...stressful, but fun. Sad it is over, but proud of the team and their never give up attitude. Though with them out... Football is officially over for me. Daytona is 23 more days from now... Onto NASCAR and baseball...

We are soooooo close!!!!!!

I am so hoping the Bears will win! I am soooo nervous. LOL. Tho the weather is on their side and they've had a great year so all that is on their side. I am glad to have another fan supporting them. Tho I'm sorry about your Bills, Roger. Jeff Gordon's 49ers got sent home packing this weekend too. Maybe he'll be supporting my Bears now, too. HA. LET'S GO BEARS!!!!!

I never heard of that. Sounds kinda like fantasy sports, perhaps the paid leagues. LOL

What's the Blue Card?

Sorry to interrupt the football talk . . . I am still excited to be moving forward into the playoffs. It's been a long time since the Bears have made it this far. They play the Rams Sunday in cold weather. The Rams aren't conditioned for warm weather and play in a dome. The Bears will have the advantage there. . . But to bring it back to NASCAR for a bit. . . NASCAR has updated the Chase format for all three series for 2026 and ahead. Of what I understand that winning in the regular season won't lock you in as it has been the past few years. It's going back to more to the old Chase system. There will still be 16 drivers (in the top series). The driver with the most points at the end of the ten Chase races wins the championship. Here is an article with more information on the new Chase format: NASCAR returns to Chase format for 2026 | NASCAR Of what I have been seeing, the drivers seem to have a positive feedback on it. I personally feel like it's a step in the right direction. 32 more days until the Daytona 500!!!!

Both should be punished? Green Bay and Chicago? Green Bay may deserve it, but the Bears, never! Sorry I am lost . . .and tired .

Thank you Roger. That was a disappointing first half and an exciting and stressful second half. What a come back! I am sorry about your Steelers. I thought of you when I saw that. I have a hard time going for them due to their current QB . . . he may no longer be on that other team (sorry...I can't say the name. ) but he has always annoyed me. I do hate for you and the fans and sad to see Tomlin stepping out. 19 years say a lot. And the fact they made it to the playoffs, he should still be proud. A lot of teams didn't make it that far. Well the other Chase must be a great guy. I am sorry to hear that he didn't do too well. I am hoping this will be Chase ELLIOT's year.

Oh good! I'm glad I talked some sense into you. I bet you're glad you joined the good side after last night's game. Talk about waiting for the last second to do something. But hey...they did it! But seriously, thank you for supporting them.

Nope. I've moved on. We got Iceman Caleb Williams now...gonna ice Green Bay out tomorrow night. Or at least I hope...

What did you do to him? LOL. I liked him in Chicago, but he went downhill from there. Hopefully he'll wake up and get his act together...

The Ghost of General Lee is my all time favorite. Tho I love all the ones with Bo and Luke in it. Except for maybe Stange visitor to Hazzard or something like that. I wasn't too big of a fan of that episode.

Jay Cutler played a season with the Dolphins after he retired from the Bears...LOL

I appreciate you being a fare weather Bears fan for me LOL. No I really do appreciate you supporting them as far as they go or who they are or aren't playing. They aren't doing so hot today against the Lions. I hope they turn it around soon...
