Babble: I understand the concept of “a win is a win,” but you have to wonder about a Bears defense that gives up 23 points to the worst team in the NFL (now that the Bengals have actually won a game)...is the D just not playing all that hard or is there a coaching issue, or both?...how bad is Kyle Orton’s injury, that’s really the question that needs to be asked, especially since they’re playing undefeated Tennessee on Sunday...we don’t need Bad Rex showing up for that one...not all that crazy about the idea of Good Rex showing up for that one either...I know I picked New England to win, but I’m glad they lost...I enjoy the look of frustration on Bill Belichick’s face...again, he's not such a genius without Tom Brady around...8-6 this week with my picks.

ELECTION DAY ADDENDUM: History (football history, that is) shows that, in the last 17 presidential elections, whenever the Washington Redskins lose the game before election day, the incumbent party is thrown out of the White House. Just another reason to hate on the Redskins, my friends.
