Bears will venture to Green Bay, where

Losing has become a way of life. 

One team is about stability,

With their personnel department and coaching staff sorted.

One team is about instability, going through their

Usual postseason first-and-hire song and dance.

This game will look familiar.

Green Bay Packers 30, Chicago Bears 10

Be the kid down the park tonight, Mitch.

Effortlessly tossing the ball to his friends.

Allay the fears of those off the pitch.

Thrill all the guards and the backs and tight ends.

This is your moment, this is your team.

Harness the rising tide and

Execute the goddamn scheme.

Seethe at the criticism and rise above it.

Kid, this is the gig that you covet.

It’s drifting away, but

Not now, not today.

Start playing ball like you love it.
