Panthers vs. Bears

Who are you pulling for???

I'm torn, as I now live in Charlotte...but I grew up in IL, and the Bears have never in my lifetime had anything to cheer about before.

(Well, okay, that's 'cause I'm a Bucs fan.)

I predicted on Sunday that the Panthers game was all I was going to hear about this week on the news. It was the same thing when the Panthers went to the SuperBowl a few years ago. Charlotte is such a "fair-weather" city.

Mr. AXiD670, however, is ecstatic.
I'm not a Panthers fan nor a non fan. I root like hell when they win. But it feels great to live in a city where a team has gone to the SuperBowl. @ The Cleveland Browns

So GO PANTHERS!!!

Yes, you're right. We did have that to cheer about....IN 1985!!!

Go Bears! This city will go crazy if we were to have two championship teams in one year.

I was 2 in 1985, so that doesn't count. 2003 (unfourtuatly) I was still mad at the Cubs for screwing up their season, so I refused to watch Chicago sports.

Hm, aside from what everybody else has mentioned, the Bears are too awesome to need fans who only cheer for them when they're winning.

Anyway, I don't think anybody will be shocked to hear that I'm cheering for DA BEARS. I'd love to see a Bears/Broncos Super Bowl.

Chicago Bears all the way!!!

Bear down, Chicago Bears,
make every play clear the way to victory;
Bear down, Chicago Bears,
put up a fight with a might so fearlessly.
We'll never forget the way you thrilled the nation
with your T-formation.
Bear down, Chicago Bears,
and let them know why you're wearing the crown.
You're the pride and joy of Illinois, Chicago Bears, bear down.

ETA: Scroll down to listen to the song


Do the Panthers have a song?

Do any of you remember the song the Patriots made in 1985 when they were trying to be as cool as the Bears? It was awful.

Actually that was 2001. 13-3 regular season and the last NFC Central division title.

GO BEARS!

First the Sox, now the Bears. It's a good time to be a Chicago sports fan!

I'm going to the game, and I will be cheering for my hometown team. Go Bears!
