Lions fans were booing early and often in this game and I don't blame them. They looked completely lost. Miscues and dropped passes killed them against the Bears. I loved it. The Bears needed a game like this to gain confidence in the offense. Orton loves playing against the Lions, with good reason. He was 24-of-34 for 334 yards and had a 121.4 rating, going to 3-0 against Detroit. The Lions stacked the box making Orton beat them and he did exactly that connecting on TD passes of 9 yards to Forte and 12 yards to Hester, who had a nice spin move to get himself in the endzone.

After watching the Cubs implode over the last 2 days I think its time to let go of the hope that they can win. Time to give my undivided attention to the Bears.
Well where do I start? The 2-2 Bears take on the 0'fer Lions. The Bears have been in every game this year and could very well be 4-0 but alas they are not. 2 should have been wins turned into 2 heartbreaking losses.

With the MLB playoffs set to begin, there is a subtle difference in the air compared to start of any other postseason. In the NHL, fans can potentially look forward to a great Canadians/Bruins series that is not only exciting, but has a historical kick to it. Likewise basketball fans always have the chance to see if the Suns can finally get past the Spurs and football fans love seeing the rivalry of the Eagles Vs the City of Philadelphia when the Eagles so much as get tackled for a loss.

In last place in one of baseball’s toughest divisions, the 38-43 Jays canned manager John Gibbons on June 20, replacing him with veteran Cito Gaston.

Only the NFL can make headlines with the release of its regular season schedule. Granted, there are only a handful of games for fans to absorb, so the attention given to each week is natural. However, this speaks increasingly to the booming popularity of the league.
