OK, if Seattle Fan is going to move his posts ahead of mine, I’m not gonna bother to update.

Let me continue to be a chivalrous opponent and point out that it ain’t over yet—but let me also be realistic and point out that it’s pretty much over. I’m sorry Brad’s been absent, but hey, Anthony is doing a great job. Really. The Bears D is beating the ‘Hawks up, the Bears O is beating up the ‘Hawks D. All that’s lacking is some serious Special Teams action.

So, it’s time for notes from Comments. To whoever thought that this duelling slog would be between me and my brother Dan, what are you, high? Until he had a straight boy-child to raise, my brother Dan never paid any attention to sports. Now he calls me from Mariners’s games and asks me to explain complicated shit like double plays or intentional walks. If we were doing duelling liveslogging, we’d be spending most of this game explaining why “backfield,” “tight end” and “men in motion” don’t mean what he thinks they mean. Not that they don’t also mean that, but you know.
