2 by 3


Two weeks in a row the Bears have lost by 3 points. Like Urlacher said we have to play all the way to the end of the game. Sure we let Griese pass for 407 yards but if we would have played til the end we would have won. Eagles defense is strong, but with a hurt McNabb and Westbrook we should do pretty decent as long as we don't turn the ball over.

I'm 2-1 in my pro fantasy league and I should win today making me tied for first place, last year I was 3-10, I should end up doing pretty decent this year.

College football was surprising this week with #'s 1, 3, 4, 9, 16, 20, 22, 23, 24 all loosing. ND won, so now they are 3-1 and we should win most of the rest of the games, maybe we'll actually be in the rankings this year.

WoWaholic... still

Disclaimer: To anyone that doesn't play WoW or have any clue what that is this will mean nothing to you :)

I am still playing WoW (World of Warcraft) I quit for a month a little while back, after the guild I helped form disbanded. I applied for a few other guilds and got into the 16th ranked guild on our server. They are an end game raiding guild and are raiding BT, and Mt. Hyjal. They have killed 2 new bosses since I joined (both kills on nights I was not able to raid).

Last night however we killed Illidari Council they are the boss right before Illidan himself! After the kill we started the event that takes you to Illidan and starts the fight with him. This will probably be the nerdiest (it's a word) thing I have said but it was amazing being able to see him finally. We were just messing around and knew we were going to die but surprisingly with no coordination at all we got him to 80%.

Here are the pics of the guilds kill and my first look at Illidan:

Football Season is Here!!!

Well football is underway, and both of my teams won!

I actually attended the ND VS. SDSU game. Notre Dame didn't look the greatest but we did win 21-13!!! We were sloppy on Defense and lacked the big plays on Offense though.

The defense allowed a lot of receivers to be wide open and took way too long to get to them and make the tackle. There were also a lot of broken tackles, we need to wrap up and make sure we finish the tackle. When we made "the play" the D did a great job, there just seemed to be a lot of tired players early in the game.

The Offense was not that bad and our run game was better than I thought it would be. However Clausen was hit or hurried too many times when he had wide open receivers, he seemed to either not see them or not know if he should make the pass.

I am looking forward to next Saturday and seeing how we improve and take on the Wolverines.

DA BEARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We beat the Colts, it was a Super Bowl rematch and Da Bears came out on top this time. Kyle Orton was decent and did a good job hitting the receivers or throwing the ball away when he needed to. The O line was great and showed that we still have power where it counts. Matt Forte shined in his first NFL game, our run game was great and reminded me of the old school power house run offense the Bears are known for.

Now the Defense was a little.... AMAZING! They were all over the field (in a good way), kept pressure on Manning the entire game, forced fumbles, they were just all out good. They too reminded me of the old hard hitting, fumble forcing, power house defense!

As you can tell I am a little excited and hopeful for both the College and NFL seasons this year. As long as ND can improve on their little mistakes we should be a pretty decent team. If Da Bears can keep that defensive power going and Orton keeps playing the way he did yesterday we will do great this year.
