We Need Change


Dear Mrs. McCaskey,
I’m a Chicago Bears fan, and am not pleased about what I have seen from the team this year. Or any year, save for 2010 since 2009. The excuses are endless as we have had 3 general managers and head coaches. We get players who turn out to be total busts, such as Gabe Carimi or Shea McClellan who bottomed out. In free agency we get big names both player and coach wise.
NOTHING IS working, and the excuses are running out, even as you charge fans way too much money to watch the Bears lose in person. Virginia, you are the daughter of George Halas who founded this franchise close to a century ago. What would he think of the mockery you put on the field every Sunday. He would not be happy with you and want you to sell the team to someone who actually cares about the product on the field instead of the pocketbook.
Why is the blame on you? You hired Phil Emery who screwed big time with the Jay Cutler deal and failed draft picks. You fired Lover Smith when he had great teams, but had rotten luck with injuries and assistant coaches. You allowed Marc Trestman to come in and ruin our defense. John Fox is a good coach but his record due to past mistakes looks bad.
Speaking of bad, we need a new QB. Barkley had one rough outing and that shows that he is either a backup or lower tier starter. We need to keep him along with Connor Shaw but get rid of Cutler ASAP. The only reason why he broke the records is because he has been mediocre longer than any QB in recent memory.
You did an okay job, but it is time for your family to sell this team, even if it means collectivism like that evil puke stomach bile colored team up north. Ask the Cubs what changes in ownership can do.
Sincerely,

Every single Bears fan

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.

You are a senior in high school, you have made it to the final year that you have been looking forward to since the first day of freshman year. Whether this has been the worst or best four years of your life, appreciate it. You will never have these times back, you will never be in high school again. It is hard for someone still in high school to wrap their brain around, but there will be a day when you wish you could be in the shoes you're in right now. Here are 15 things I have learned being in college that I wish I knew as a high school senior:

Everyone, and I mean everyone has heard of the show "One Tree Hill". Many people think that this show is the best thing they've ever watched and others won't bother watching it because they know they'll get hooked. And yes, I know many people have written about this show before, but I couldn't resist. I could re-watch every season multiple times to the point where I can almost quote an entire scene. Trust me, once you start "One Tree Hill", you will be hooked. There's way too many reasons to list as to why you'll love this show, and these are just a few.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.
