Had a lot of emotion while watching this. I used to root for Da Bears when I lived in Chicagoland. Spent three months or so taking care of a uncle who lost a leg, arm and part of his skull to a German panzer tree burst which also wiped out 6 men from his 8 man squad at the landing in Anzio. Had to take care of him before he went into the nursing home up the street in late 1994.
And we lived in a suburb of Milwaukee the first ten years of my life up through late 1969.
I did think I was going to be out the first week of the Survivor game when I saw that score of 0 to 20 in favor of Da Bears.
Packers face Vikings next week and I lived in Minneapolis for 5.5 while getting a law degree and working at the U of MN Law Library.
Also another tough one for whom to back as far as emotions are concerned.
