I know that this is a Chicago Bears site, but there are a few things that are undeniably true every March:
1. If you’re more than a decade removed from your college days, you’re probably dusting off your old college gear to root for your alma mater.
2. It is the only time of year when it is socially acceptable to end a sentence with “baby.” Example: “You’ve gotta love the Illini baby!” ”Pass the pepper baby!” Damn you, Dickie V. Damn you baby!!!
3. Everyone is a college basketball fan for a few days.
Our friends at SI.com are running a HUGE Bracket Challenge, so print out the FanSided bracket and let your magic 8-Ball do the rest. If you can go perfect and no one else does, you’ll be a million dollars richer. Not too shabby for a free tournament.
So whether you’re jumping into the office pool, looking to claim a million bucks or just want to make some “investments” jump into the mix and have some fun.
What do you think? Who do you think is going all the way? Post your Final Four in the Comments, unless of course you don’t want to give away your secrets.
Hello fellow Bears fans!!! Let me take a moment to introduce myself. My name is Mike Burzawa, but those closest to me know me as Boomer. It’s a nickname that I’ve had for many, many years (long before I ever heard of that guy on ESPN) and I thought I’d post under that alias. I’m the new lead blogger for Bear Goggles On (I can’t take credit for the name), where I’ll be sharing my views and perspectives on the team we all love. I’m a lifelong Chicagoan and a die hard fan of Da Bears. I’ve been around for the highest of highs and the lowest of lows. I mean, what was your favorite moment of the Cade McNown era??? The end, if you ask me!!! I have been going on an annual trip to an away Bears game since 1996, so I’ve seen many different sports cities and I’m here to tell you that Chicago fans are second to none!!! As the greatest fans in the NFL, we deserve the greatest blog. I’ll do my best, but I’ll need your help. I plan to share my take on the team and give a true fan’s perspective. Every once in a while, I’ll put the “Bear” goggles on and sip the Orange and Blue Kool Aide, but I’ll also “Lower the Boom” when I think it’s called for. Most of all, I want to have some fun and the best way to do that is through your participation, so please feel free to comment, e-mail and share this site with other Bears fans.
