One of my favorite movie lines is, "Well, you can wish in one hand and crap in the other and see which gets filled first!"
If we substitute "hope" for "wish," that encapsulates our Chicago Bears fandom.
Every offseason, there's hope.
Then comes disappointment.
Every few years, there's a firing.
Hope returns, but eventually, disappointment does too.
And the cycle repeats.
It's getting harder and harder to maintain some balance when talking about a Bears team that has lost a franchise record thirteen consecutive games, so when you tune in to tonight's show, it may not be as balanced as usual.
