Let me take you again to November seventh, 1999.
I do know, nobody was alive then.
It was the Bears first recreation since Walter Payton, the best Bear of all-time (although should you say Dick Butkus or Doug Buffone, I gained’t argue) had handed. I had $7 to my identify, dwelling in Boston throughout my freshman 12 months of school. I had no enterprise leaving my dorm room, a lot much less going wherever to observe an out-of-market Bears recreation. Should have simply curled up with the leftover pizza, Budweiser within the dorm fridge, what I’m positive was a raging hangover, and listening to the radio through NFL.com.
But once you’re a homesick Chicago boy and Walter Payton has simply handed, and it’s the first ever Bears-Packers recreation you’re set to overlook, what are you able to do? I roped some buddy in to affix me (I do know precisely which buddy it was, however I gained’t identify him as a result of he’s an upstanding citizen nowadays) for causes neither of us will ever perceive, and made our option to Champions Sports Bar behind the Pru (sky level) on Huntington Ave. Could I order a beer? No. Did the 2 of us mixed have sufficient for one appetizer? Barely. But typically, you do what you gotta.
And it was an terrible recreation. Somehow, the Bears of their first 12 months below Dick Jauron (HEY BUDDY THAT’S MY DICK JAURON!) and rotating Cade Goddamn McNown in at QB for a handful of sequence per recreation had been capable of drag the Green Bay Packers (admittedly a middling model of them) to their degree for 4 quarters. I wasn’t absolutely conscious of the minimal that the bar had for anybody sitting at a desk, although I knew that the only real artichoke dip appetizer we ordered definitely didn’t justify our existence on the poor server’s part. We tipped in addition to we might for it, however clearly, that was fairly skint. We had been clueless 18-year-olds. But once more, issues needed to be carried out.
And we did that so we might watch 4 quarters and three hours of fairly turgid exercise of twenty-two guys hurling themselves at one another with no explicit plan or group in any respect. But lord solely is aware of I’m used to that as a lifelong Bears fan. It is what we stock.
Somehow, the Jim Miller-led Bears had monkey-humped their option to a 14-13 lead by means of a bumbling offense that noticed Curtis Enis run for 88 yards and their main receiver Marcus Robinson amass 66 yards, But, after all, that corn-fed, thieving mule Brett Favre drove the Packers all the way down to the Bears 10 with the final drive, establishing a chip shot for a recreation winner. Of course. Same because it ever was. This is simply the best way issues had been, the best way they’re, the best way they are going to be. Without ever trying like they cared or tried, the Packers had been going to nick one other one away from us.
Every Bears fan is aware of by coronary heart now that Bryan Robinson jumped 12 toes within the air to dam that area purpose. I charged round that bar telling each Packers fan I might discover to suck it (it was the peak of the Attitude Era) and hugging the one different Bears fan within the bar whereas screaming, “SWEETNESS!!!!” Our server simply glared at us, rightly. Maybe she’ll learn this and I could make it proper. We paid our invoice of like $18 for 3 hours of sitting there, no matter 1999 costs had been, and I bounced all the best way again to the T.
The lesson, youngsters, isn’t play the Bears on the day and even the week a group legend dies. As quickly because it was introduced that Dick Butkus had handed, the Commanders had been toast. Justin Field and DJ Moore had been going to show into Montanta-to-Rice-on-speed it doesn’t matter what they did. And that’s what occurred as Chicago torched Washington, 40-20, on Thursday evening.
Whenever Brian Urlacher dies of essentially the most tremendous pressure of herpes the world has ever seen, the Bears are profitable the Super Bowl.
