In 1986, there was a certain team that went to the Super Bowl in New Orleans to take on the New England Patriots for the championship of all championships…
Da Super Bowl!
Dat team, of course, was Da Bears!
Led by a certain Coach Ditka, Da Bears steamrolled the Patriots for a final score of 46–10.
 Now, as everyone from Chicago knows, Coach Ditka was suffering a cold that day in 1986, which was exactly why New England was able to put any points at all on the board.
On the fifth of February, more than 20 years later, Da Bears have risen once again to take on the Indianapolis Colts for Super Bowl XLI.
Because Ditka has long retired from Da Bears, this game might not be a total blowout.
However, it has been stated by officials in the Ditka office, that should Da Bears win their second Super Bowl, Ditka will enter, and win, this year’s Indianapolis 500 in Da Bears team bus.
Now, while those rednecks from Indianapolis might think Peyton Manning can lead the Colts to victory, that will not be the case.
First of all, Da Bears defense is like a wall. Manning and his little band of misfits, in all probability, will not cross the endline.
Which brings me to my next point, after beating God himself for World Domination, a certain Coach Ditka will have control over this year’s championship.
As we all know, even if Da Bears were only 14 inches tall, the Colts would still only manage 10 points.
With Ditka in charge, as well as having his very own special weapon, Hurricane Ditka, at his disposal, Super Bowl XLI is a foregone conclusion.
My prediction, Colts 3, Da Bears 38.
Now, Super Fan Todd O’Conner would like to perform a certain ritual that he hasn’t done since 1986, Todd...
Daaaa Bears da bears da bears da bears…
