It was more than just a money issue at that point, no?

It's a minor annoyance to them. Ginny will briefly bring it up at the dinner table over the Holidays to Georgie. Nothing that will lead to changes, earth shattering, in the organization.

Everything's fine in McCaskeyland. The Bears beat the 49ers and stuck it to the ghost of Bill Walsh. Now John Fox cares about his job after all and all we have to do is stay the course.

The Braves were a better team so that might have been the factor

Pretty sure the only way they'd be billionaires is if they sold the Bears. These ain't the Jones'

That old bag gets her diapers changed, you think she knows what day it is? Let alone how shitty the team is?

Today's Trib David Haugh wrote there were 13,160 no shows. It appeared to me to be a late arriving and early departing 'crowd.'

Bears offically announce 16,536 unused tickets vs Packers.

I expect 20,000+ against the Redskins

How much would your family hate you to buy Bears tickets to the game this Saturday?

This sounds like a game of chicken. Will KD suggest bailing first, and hur the people who gifted him the tickets, or will the family bail first because they don't want to sit and be miserable for 4 hours watching a dead-ass team?

The Browns/Chargers game I went to Saturday had to have been around 40K empty seats. :lol:

I can't imagine there will be more than 30-40K people at the game Sunday.
