Packers/Bears game notes...

the last time that the Packers had the edge in wins in the all-time series,against the Chicago Bears,was when they were 11-10-5,in the year 1932... believe it or not... the all-time record is(including playoffs)93-89-6,in favor of the Bears... Packers have won nine of the last eleven games,in the series... Aaron Rodgers,as quarterback,is 10-3,against the Bears,including a 27-20 loss,last season,in which he broke his clavicle,on the first series of the game... the last game between the teams was a stunner for the Bears;they lost 33-28,in Chicago,on the memorable "4th and 8",48 yard touchdown pass from Aaron Rodgers to Randall Cobb,to give the Packers the NFC North Division crown for the third straight season... honestly,what a bitter pill for the Bears to swallow... who honestly cares... i loved it... honestly,it is next year,and even a great memory does not matter,and Sunday that what counts... i hate to say this:the Bears are playing better as a team,but these two teams truly hate each other,and this rivalry is like no other... you can talk of recent rivalries,like the Baltimore Ravens,against the Pittsburgh Steelers,and nasty it is,no doubt,but this is a rivalry that goes back to 1921,and even though both teams may have records that are not flattering(3-13,for example),at times... i honestly believe that they would not care about any other games,but if they could beat each other every year,the teams would be happy with beating each other up in a back alley,because they really do not like each other... 93 years of team hatred,but respect,will do that...
