Briggs Lets Poor Kids Run Wild In Target, Similar to Bears Defense and Opposing Offenses

by Matt Phillip on Wednesday 23 December 2009 at 12:45 pm

briggsLance Briggs, with all his Travis Henry-like baby-making ability, ‘hosted’ what I assume is some sort of event for poor local area kids (one of his own?? BA-ZING!). The kids were given a chance to submit an essay to the Chicago Housing Authority in the hopes of winning a holiday shopping spree. The 30 best were chosen and were given a $200 gift certificate to Target where they could buy all the Sour Patch Kids and Gummi Worms they could hold.

So you have 30 kids who live in public housing, Lance Briggs, aaaaaaaaaaaaand who else? I assume there were some people supervising the kids, right? RIGHT? Well I’m sure it wasn’t Lance, who spent the time at Target posing for pictures while persons at a decidedly lower pay grade ran around the store chasing after the kids. Well, isn’t that just a metaphor for the Bears porous defense?!?!

amirite????

    Matt was there, actually. He got a tricycle, and some batteries, and a calendar, and a pogo stick …

    I tried to attend, but the bushes at the end of my driveway are a little overgrown. When my Kia Forte got to the hole in between them, it just kinda stopped. I really don’t understand it, cause all last year it seemed to run just fine. I mean, granted, the gap between the bushes isn’t huge by any means, but it looks like there’s enough room to get through if it just pushed a little harder, or even if it just didn’t come to a dead stop.

    Oh, I see what you did there. It also probably doesn’t help that your head gardener assumed Frank Omiyale could make any kind of adequate bush.

    Now that you mention it, one of the bushes on the left side does seem to fall down a lot. Seems like it might be a bit more stable if I put it on the end. Cause the place I bought the bush from had it at the end of a row, and it seemed to do pretty well like that, which is what prompted me to buy it in the first place. Also, the bush in the middle, a once-glorious specimen, has withered with age, yet I can’t seem to find it in my heart to replace it.
    Ok, I think that’s enough of this.
