ROUND 2: Dirty Birds Lead-Up

I don't see how you can dislike a team so much because of what some idiot on ESPN says. You must put a lot of stock in what that tool thinks.

Matt Ryan seems like a classy guy, Smith is a good coach, Roddy White is as humble as star WRs get, Turner has never really done anything to be a d-bag, Gonzo has always been a pretty classy guy... Overall I haven't really seen their team ever do anything to make them be hated.

I have never liked the Falcons as a team, I don't have a reason there are just some teams I don't like and some teams I'm okay with. That being said there is no way that I would root for the Falcons over the Bears. They are the **** Bears.

I guess I'm the only idiot who feels this way.

We'll beat the Bears ass if we win this weekend.

Oh...

But I hate the Falcons this week, because they are playing us.

If we play the Patriots in the Super Bowl I have a feeling Rodgers will introduce himself to Gisele's private areas and make it well known. Then while Tom Brady's life is in ruins, Rodgers breaks his will to live on the football field, does the title belt celebration right in his face and then tells us all that he told Percy he would do it.

I wouldnt root for the bears if GB lost simply becuase the Super Bowl would be a snoooooozer....

That being said, of all the teams left GB/NE Super Bowl would easily be one of the more exciting Super Bowls in recent history.

I think GB/Pit would be a pretty good one too.

If we beat the Bears anything after that is gravy. And we can beat the Patriots. We can beat anyone that is left.

How can you say that? Have we proven that we can do that?

Well if we win this game, we should be favorites against the Bears or Seahawks. I assume we would be underdogs against the Patriots or Steelers (I expect one of those teams to come out of the AFC)... But I think we'd have a good shot against either of them, especially considering it wouldn't be in New England.

Ugh. I just can't take an NFCCG loss to Chicago or another SB loss.

You probably should have rooted for us to miss the playoffs then.

Things I could handle:
-WC loss (irrelevant)
-Divisional loss
-Title game loss to any team but Chicago (probably irrelevant)

Things I could not handle
-Title game loss to Chicago
-SB loss

So, as you can see, with the WC game out of the way, and Chicago probably beating Seattle, there are 3 remaining possibilities, 2 of which I cannot handle.

Does the **** of the possibility of losing to Chicago or in the SB really outweigh the awesomeness of the possibility of winning the Super Bowl?

Can God make an object so heavy that even he can't lift it?

How can it be determined that my experience of consciousness is the same as anyone else's experience of consciousness?

Why doesn't glue stick to the inside of the bottle?

These are just a few equally difficult questions.

Glue is made up of a substance that sticks to things and a solvent that keeps it liquid until you want it to stick. When you put glue on a piece of paper, the solvent gradually evaporates until the glue becomes sticky. When the glue is in a bottle, there is a space inside the bottle above the liquid that is full of air. So why doesn't the glue dry out? Well there's a limit to the amount of solvent that can evaporate to fill the space in the bottle. Once the space is full of solvent gas, no more solvent evaporates from the glue and the glue stays runny.

BOOM!

They have Bears as a 92.1% chance of winning this weekend. We're at 43.1%. Oddly, Chicago has better SB odds than Atlanta.
