CHICAGO (AP) -- Relax, Chicago. Rex Grossman and Da Bears are indeed good enough for this Super Bowl, and they've already made it a historic one.
Few teams with such an impressive record have been as questioned, even maligned as the Bears. Yet after romping past the New Orleans Saints 39-14 on Sunday, they are headed to their first NFL title game since the 1985 team overwhelmed the league and shuffled in under Mike Ditka and Jim McMahon.
This time, Lovie Smith will lead them there, the first black head coach to make it to the title game in its 41 years.

I can't believe they got Prince, formerly known as "The Artist formerly known as Prince", for the halftime show. Blech.
It now looks at half time that the Patriots will knock off the Colts. One more superbowl with the Patriots will assure that my television will stay in the OFF position on that day. Lots of folks are fed up with another Patriots superbowl.
No kidding. Talk about scraping the bottome of the barrel.
And why are they fed up? Were they fed up when the Steelers were in it on a regular basis? How about the Packers when they were dominant 40 years ago? The Patriots are a damm good team with an outstanding coach and a class-act quarterback who is a Republican. What do you want, Terell Owens?
Hopefully it will be 85 Bears deja vu all over again. ;-)
Will there be riots in N.O. tonite?
24 days until Pitchers and Catchers report.

"...What do you want, Terell Owens?..."
A lot of Dallas fans don't want T O.

Twice he said it… he promised… the world has been turned topsy-turvy.
At least we won't be hearing the ESPN "Saints are Americas team/post Katrina miracle melodramas.
I don’t normally spend money on superfluous sports memorabilia, however I did buy a placard of the 85 Bears winning team. Now I have a chance to get another placard that will help balance out my wall of Bears stuff.
DA BEARS!
For the record not a fan of either team. That said after hearing all year the saints were americas team. I am glad the team the media used to keep the term Hurricane katrina in the press all season is going home. Of course how long until new orleans blames Bush for the loss?
I wouldn't be so sure to dictate TO's political affiliation. He seems to be apolitical and definately does not buy into McNabbs class race warfare crap.
No, it's Daaa Bearssss!
Behavior like that ticks of the defense BIGTIME.
No worries now.
