CBS2 just interviewed me about the Bears for the 10PM News tonight. A follow up to last year’s frustrated fan story. Tune in & check it out.
Some sample tweets:
Genius move by Martz to have Olsen drop passes all season so nobody will bother covering him in January. Just brilliant!
With that last pass attempt Greg Olsen now holds the Bears record for Most Games With A Dropped Pass, previously held by Dez White.
Forte over 1000 rushing yards for the season. It’s more impressive when you remember how much Chris Williams was on the field.
Cutler is first Bears QB to throw for 3000 yards in consecutive seasons, that’s how high the bar is set in this town.
Mike Martz issued a statement this morning saying he never would have come to Chicago if he knew the Bears played outside.
Angelo told Santa he didn’t need any more sweaters, ties, or draft picks. “We both know I don’t know how to use them.”
Overrated? Hardly. The Bears are UNDEFEATED when playing 3rd string quarterbacks.

Best 12-second recap of Sunday’s game.
T-shirts, sweatshirts, and onesies with the new logo are now available. The long-sleeve t-shirt and one of the short-sleeves have the lyrics on back. Priced to move.
Available at the Frustrated Bears Fan store on CafePress.
Need cover bands!
Who will be the next group to record this song for YouTube? Certainly there must be others who can sing better than the original group. I pledge that anyone who posts the video will get featured on the liedownchicagobears.com site and tweeted by me endlessly*. Only two games left, show the team what we think of the latest wasted season.
Chicago Bears Fight Song (frustrated fan version)
Lie down, Chicago Bears,
snatch defeat from the jaws of victory;
Lie down, Chicago Bears,
let them score and you’ve lost your dignity.
We’ll never forget the way you bored the nation
with your punt formation.
Lie down, Chicago Bears,
you’ve failed again to convert on third down.
Haven’t had a man since Jim McMahon,
Chicago Bears, lie down.lyrics by Joe Schmitt with help from Thad, Art and Brian

*Note: I will not feature the video if it has anyone wearing Packers gear or any other NFL team. Only Bears fans please.

The Bears have 99 problems, but this rap ain’t one
by @zhubi (first published on her blog)
(Instrumental: Jay Z- What We Talkin About)
Let’s talk about the Saints, let’s talk about the Colts
Don’t mention the Bears, cuz I might have to bolt
Back in 06, my Sundays were the dopest
But as of late, they got me feeling hopeless
We ain’t shufflin like we did in ‘85
Now Ochocinco is doing that jive
Don’t even get me started on Jay Cutler
20 million bills, straight down the gutter
Are we talking bout the Bears or we talking bout the Lions?
The Bears’ll be O and 16 in no time
On defense, we aint even tryin
And Urlacher’s cryin, on the sidelines
What’s Cutler doing? I want my Rexy back
How much we paying? What’s his contract?
Gave up three first-round picks in the draft
Just to watch Jay-sucker get sacked
Are we talking about fiction or we talking about fact?
Fact is that we lost to the Pack
But when there’s no line, it’s kinda hard to pass,
And all the fans see is Hester’s butt crack
Let’s get Owens, Flacco, and Chris Johnson
We’ll keep D. Hester cuz he’s pretty awesome.
I’m about done, It’s about time
Time to get blitzed like the Bears O-line
Chorus:
The Bears, they are, who we thought, they were, they were, they werrrrrrre
The Bears, they are, who we thought, they were, they were, they werrrrrrre
