So, who will win today? Will Grossman be run out of Chicago if he performs poorly today?


Anyways, I am going to try to get up at 5:30AM to watch the game. Is anyone else going to watch the game? And what are your predictions?

As a former Chicagoan, I can confidently predict that the Bears will lose.

Rex Grossman should still be given more time, although they're apt to bring in some 30-something-has-been-veteran to let him "develop", i.e. ride the bench and lose all confidence in his ability.

I think that given the importance some expats place on watching and discussing major sporting events from their homelands, it does relate enough to their experience of living in Korea to qualify it for posting in this - or almost any - forum...

no... it doesn't. but f*ck it. the saints might play in the superbowl. i'm willing to let it slide.

as for bippitybop, if you're so concerned with forum etiquette, you can stop hijacking the posts about mcdonald's breakfasts, and instead start your own thread on the evils of mcdonald's.

I was answering JZer's question about why it matters if it has anything to do with Korea. He was confused about ChopChapJoe's question.

About McDonald's, Fk McDonalds. My posting in a McDonald's thread about McDonald's wasn't a hijack. If someone said "Mr. Kim's Kimchi Kitchen is now serving Kimchi" and I responded with "Mr. Kimchi has bad kimchi and unethical business practices," that wouldn't be hijacking.

And it's Bibbitybop, not bippitybop, but thanks for you concern.

I'm not big into football, but since I used to live near Chicago, I might wake up early and watch some of the game.

Go Bears!

I was not confused. I just don't think it matters if this post is posted in the general forum or the off topic forum. I posted it in the General Forum because I think more people view it than the off topic forum.

well through the first half its chi town 16 and the saints 7. I really don't care who wins though.
Also, expats such as myself crave the NFL. So, if we get a chance to talk about football in any kind of way, including on an ESL message board where you read the same bitching and moaning about the same *beep* all the time, who cares.

Why not just post this in the job-related discussion board?
