On Peyton Manning’s Exorcism and Chicago’s Obsession With The ‘85 Bears

by Albert Bianchi on January 22nd, 2007

That’s exactly how Peyton Manning had to do it, wasn’t it? Peyton played fantastically, and was fantastically clutch. He did what no one thought he was capable of doing against his nemesis. (I think the term nemesis is a bit much, more of just the thorn in Peyton’s paw.) Those smug New Englanders really had it coming too. I hope their next two weeks will be haunted by a constant barrage of Peyton Manning commercials. Oh…yeah.

Manning defeating his hooded-sweatshirted demons wasn’t the biggest upset of Sunday though, the ‘85 Bears being the most annoying announcer “go-to” was. I would have put any amount of money it would have been something about Hurricane Katrina or Bill Belichick, but no, it was those damn ‘85 Bears. Do they seriously still talk about a team that won a single Super Bowl in that city?  No one is obsessed with one team like that this side of the ‘72 Dolphins circle jerk. Seriously, one Super Bowl. You know who else won one Super Bowl: the Baltimore Ravens, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the New York Jets etc.. The only thing special about the Bears is that they had the most famous team song disaster and some defensive lineman got Sweetness touchdown in the Super Bowl. Great. Chicago, get over the team. 1985 wasn’t God’s gift to football, it was a blip in the 49ers dominance. Congratulations, you’re back in the big game. Now shut up about the last time you were there.
