My Bears Fan Christmas List
One of my many quirks is my love of Christmas music. Much to Chili Dawn's dismay, I start playing with the pre-set radio stations in the Chilimobile every November looking for the first sign of Rudolph or one of the other out-of-control reindeer who did a hit-and-run on Grandma.
But even I have my limits. For instance, there's a relatively modern Christmas tune called "My Grown-Up Christmas List" that has me reaching for the dial every time. It's cloying. Entirely too sappy for me to waste my time on.
So it's back to sports radio and more Bears talk.
I've done this so many times now, that in my head I've connected the two things. That's right - now I have a Bears fan Christmas list.
It's a simple list from a simple man. And if Santa is reading (we know he loves chili) here's what we're looking for:
A rabid tirade by Coach Lovie in which he verbally pummels his non-performing team.
A GPS system for our Quarterback that tracks ONLY our receivers.
A veteran receiver who is not flashy, but who has a reputation for being very very good at running his routes.
And one forward step for Greg Olsen, because he can't seem to find one after he makes a catch.
There is so much more I could ask for (there are several items on the Defensive side of the ball that come to mind), but 'tis not the season to be greedy. Besides, I'm sure you have some items of your own that you'd like to see, and I want to be sure there's room in Santa's bag for them.
Tough game in Baltimore this week, but we're crossing our fingers and putting on the Orange and Blue. GO BEARS!
