I found this on ESPN.com while looking for something positive about the Bears and Rex Grossman. As a Bears fan, I have both been looking forward to and dreading this game. Which Rex will show up? The good one from the first 7 games or the evil one from the last 9? Anyway, here is a suggestion to break him out of his funk:
Just about every Bears fan has a theory on how to ensure the good Rex Grossman shows up for the playoffs. But perhaps actor George Wendt, a Chicago native and part of the famed Saturday Night Live skit, “Bill Swerski’s Superfans” has the most creative idea of all.
“Remember the image in Godfather 2 where Frank Pentangeli was getting ready to testify against Michael and then they flew Michael’s brother in from Sicili and the guy just sat there and stared at Frank until he could barely speak?” Wendt said. “Well, I figure Steve Spurrier is off for a few weeks. He’s got nothing to do right now. I say we bring in Spurrier, just sit him in a chair and let him just stare at Grossman until we shake this thing out of him. It’s gotta work.”
I say the Bears should give it a shot. It can’t possibly make him any worse than posting a 0.0 QB rating.

Rex will be fine - bank on it. The Seahawks CBs are trifling. Bears advance to face…?
… the Saints. Whoda thunk?
In other news, there are rumors of a splinter blog being started called “Superfans in E-Rod’s Pants.”
That’s A LOT of fat men to fit into those 29-narrow acid-washed jeans….
And hell, if Rex struggles, I’m sure Lovie has NO problem putting Griese in there. He can’t be any worse than Mr. Blutarski - 0.0
