Title:
Good old fashioned NFL football
I didn't even plan to watch. But what an enjoyable game. (If not to listen to -- ESPN announcer dissers, I feel your pain). It was not an important game compared to others this week. The Packers were already out of it and the Bears were hanging by a thread. What drew me in was the atmosphere -- near zero temperature, breaths suspended in mid-air, bareshested apprentice madmen in the crowd with B-E-A-R-S spelled out on their chests. A game with much more defense than offense, i.e. an authentic NFC North smashfest. The Packers' yellow helmets vivid in high def. This was plain old fun football, just when I least expected it.
