Insert USC Trojans for Chi Bears and that’s me too. Even tho am a born and bred Bears fan, USC trumps all for me
I would like you to join as a contributer at thirdandshort.wordpress.com
I’m a Bronco fan but this may be one of the best done sites I have seen in my entire life. Congratulations with the success! By the way, I added you to my blogroll.
Thanks for the props, Garrett. But you need to check out more sites if this is one of the best you’ve seen. Haha. Bronco Madness is well done, too.
I frequently send fun odds/props to a variety of writers and
websites/blogs throughout the year that are football based…Normal
odds like odds to win the Super Bowl, timely odds like what will Brett
Favre do (stay retired, return with Packers, return with other team),
and fun odds like will Pacman Jones be seen in a strip club in Dallas
within (0-3 months, 6-9 months, etc).
You may have seen some of our odds on AOL Fanhouse, ESPN Hashmarks,
Shutdown Corner, or many other places.
Anyway, I was hopeful to get your direct email to send you the
odds/props when I have them.
Thanks for taking the time to read this.

I am a rabid, obsessive Bear fan, much like yourself. And since I am from the northeast, I agree, modern technology has allowed my obsession to only grow and grow; like the advent of crack cocaine in the 80s. Anyway…I love your blog. Great writing. And of course, great subject matter.
Thanks, jc. I hope you’ll continue to read regularly.
