Nothing like getting back from a successful business trip and watching a recorded Chicago Bears game that also ended with a win.
In the words of Blake, (played by Alec Baldwin) in Glengarry Glen Ross, “Always Be Closing.”
The Bears CLOSED this one.
Watching this game gave me scary flashbacks to the Lions and the Vikings games. The Chicago Bears took the lead at the very end of those games, only to lose. This time they held on to the lead for the win. Alec Baldwin would be proud.
They looked pretty damn good doing it too, in front of a national audience on ESPN’s Monday Night Football.
