Dear Mr. Claus,
I know we haven’t been on speaking terms since we had that pizza misunderstanding at the Merchandise Mart back in ‘87, but I feel it’s time to mend fences.
Our beloved Chicago Bears, absent from a world championship for far too long, have fought their way back from a crippling six game losing streak and face a postseason precipice this week. With two straight wins, our boys in Navy and Orange have managed to get themselves back in the playoff mix, but we need some help.
What we’re asking — and by “we” I mean the passionate collective of Chicago Bears’ fandom everywhere — is for you to see to it that we can whip up on the Jaguars this Sunday and follow that up with a beat-down of the Packers next week.
