... I love the rivalry. I got to go to several games when the Packers played at Soldier Field. Lotsa good natured ribbing, nothing mean spirited (like in Minnesota).

I still think #34 is the best player the game has ever known. He was running the "wildcat" against the Packers long before it was the wildcat. He destroyed the Packers every time we lined up.

I also think Gayle Sayers was the smoothest RB to ever lace up a pair of cleats. He could cut sideways at full speed. A shame he couldn't stay healthy.

That made last year's NFC Championship game really, really special for me. Too bad Cutler got hurt; he's the best QB the Bears have had since, well, Kyle Orton.
