The Saints Come Marching In

Rex Grossman, man of redemption? May be a little early to tell, but with the Bears victory over the Seahawks on Sunday, in overtime no less, Grossman had his chance to prove himself to the critics (myself included) and prove himself he did. Grossman was 21/38 with 282 yards, a td, a pick which was a tipped pass, and a fumble. Not stellar numbers, and Grossman still looked uncomfortable in the pocket, forcing a lot of passes, but he does have it in him to be a team leader, especially after an incredibly placed 67 yard pass to Berrian. All eyes were on the young Robbie Gould, out of Penn State, and Gould himself never wavered, quoted as saying, "I knew it was good as soon as soon as it came out," but he did have me worried, as the ball was slicing like one of my golf drives. The Bears face a formidable foe in the Saints, who alot of people are calling "Americas team" a la Hurricane Katrina. Good, fuck the Cowboys, and fuck Texas. The only good thing to come out of Texas was the ability to produce the Houston Astros, whom my Chicago White Sox wiped the floor with in the World Series. Americas Team? We'll see on Sunday.
