F@&* YOU, LOVIE SMITH! "Derr, its 3rd and 3 yards left with 1:20 to go and my team has the momentum. Hey I know, I should call a timeout, even though there is enough time on the play clock for my offense to run a play! And I'll have Mike call a WR reserve! When has that ever failed in the NFL?" GO TO HELL! THAT TIMEOUT WAS A DISGRACE AND YOU KNOW IT! I hope this team chokes next season, just so you can get fired midseason and I don't have to see your hopeless stares in the sidelines EVER AGAIN! FIRE HIM! FIRE HIM! FIRE HIM!
Now that I have my angry yet unnecessary rant out of the way, I would like to congratulate the Green Bay Packers and their fans on winning the NFC Championship game fair and square. Better defense, better wide receivers, better coach and, most importantly, better quarterback. Outside of their poor special teams, inferior running game and the defense allowing to keep this game close by letting a third string quarterback score touchdowns, it was all Packers in this one. Whoever wins this AFC Championship will be a great opponent for the Packers in what should be an exciting Super Bowl XLV.
Also, I have to give a slight tip of the hat to Caleb Hanie and the Bears defense. Coming into this game as Chicago's third string quarterback, Hanie entered the game late in the 4th quarter after a Jay Cutler injury and Todd Collins's terrible play early in the second half, and played pretty decently for someone who hasn't played for more than three or so minutes in a regular season game since college. Besides, he kept it close throughout the fourth quarter with his lofty effort. As for Chicago's defense, the fact that the offense played terribly all game and you were able to limit Green Bay's offense to only 14 points should not be understated.
Finally, I would like to take this time to thank this entire Bears team for an unexpectedly fun season. At the start of the year, I predicted them to finish slightly below .500, so I didn't have much hope for this team. In fact, if you had asked me what a great year would have been for this team with a rocky QB, a poor wide receiving corp and Lovie Smith as a head coach, I would have said if they had just won ten games! So the fact that they finished the season 11-5, NFC North champions and hosts of the season's NFC Championship game is a pretty nice act of over-achievement on their part.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to spend these next few hours walking out in this cold Chicago evening to find myself a B.J. Raji voodoo doll. Hopefully that will be the cure to my frustration.
Sincerely,
