Sunday October 12th aka My Most Disappointing Day as a Bears Fan



Win one that you should have lost and then give it right back for a loss. Can anyone say CHOKE. This was my most disappointing day ever as a Bears fan. But oh well, it's just a stupid game played by overpaid prima-donnas anyways. The real winners that day were the "regular' people out for a 26.2 mile run on a glorious Sunday fall morning. Congrats to all the Chicago Marathoners.

Even with the most disappointing day in fandom (you Cub fans know well what I'm talking about) it turned out to be a great day shared with some of my best friends. I went on a great bike ride to Beecher and back. There were only three of us and we notched it down a bit to enjoy the weather. Light winds in our face on the way out and a little heavier wind on the way back. That worked out well. 25 miles into an easy wind and 25 in with a decent tailwind. The temp was perfect, the traffic was light, and the company was great. Plus I got a good night sleep on Saturday night (the wife was tired and hung over from her Friday afternoon and evening). It reminded me as to whay I got into biking to begin with. Then to my neighbor's house for the game, food, and cold beer. We have this ritual of rotating gmaes at everone's house on each Sunday. Well needless to say, the weather made the post-game festivities lively. The kids played, the adults played, and I got home well past dark. What a day!

Yup! Fat and Lazy.

Oh shit!
