What to do when a relative is playing for the Bears??

[GrnBay007]

Got the news today. First Pop Warner meeting and my son is on the Bears team.


wait.....it gets better: Games are on Sunday scheduled somewhere from 10am-4pm.


wait, wait....gets even better: First game of the season - Sept. 10th. Does that date ring a bell with anyone??

oh my.....the things we go through as parents!

since you can't wear anything saying Bears on it you'll have to show solidarity to the team concept by going to games topless

Every August here in Cumberland we have our Rutabaga Festival. A band of gypsies runs the carnival part of the fair. Rumor has it that they sometimes will buy young children for a pretty decent price. I'm just saying.

LOL they were the Dolphins last year....no feelings for or against the Dolphins ..........except the whole damn uniform was white......put a lot of time into getting grass stains out!!!

Who in the upper mid west (Packer country) schedules anything for Sunday afternoons in the fall? Blasphemous!

[GrnBay007]

Figures. That's just plain assinine.

All the games are not played on Sunday obviously but his league has Sunday games. Seems so odd people that support football would schedule any of the games during NFL games. I gently attempted to pursued him to move up to the next weight level but he wanted to stay where he was last year and be the big guy. ...guess I can't blame him. Next year he won't have a choice ....unless he fails to gain 4 lbs in a year....lol

So you don't want me to mention it to Durriken?

[GrnBay007]

I'll take a pass on Durriken!!

My son is a big time Packer fan....but he does have a sense of humor. When the coach announced they are going to be the Bears this year I could feel him staring at me to see my reaction. When I looked at him he was laughing.

Time to warm up the Tivo or the VCR. Maybe you'll get lucky and get a lot of early games when they play late and late games when they play early. How long do the games last?

[GrnBay007]

You are right.....need to get a system in to place now. Last year there was about 3 or 4 games I had to miss. I took a portable radio with me. Games last about 2 hours. The first game though.....that is the one that really hurts....the Packer/Bear game.

[Homer Jay]

It's a 3:15 game, so I'll be hoping you play at 10:00. I live close to Minnesota, so the Viking games are always the biggest to me. But after last year I'd really like to see Brett get his dominance over the Bears back.
