Interceptions make their ugly return to burn Da Bears

I know I've been away for a short bit and some of you faithful followers of The Way were probably thinking I went away because of the Bears struggles. Well that is not the case.
Yesterday the return of "Old Jay" made an appearance at Soldier Field and it was the reason the Bears lost. Well, really the four interceptions by DeAngelo Hall scored the winning points, but Jay's fumble on the goalline in the middle of a scrumb that showed he had crossed the goal line was what really cost the Bears the game.
At some point, Jay has to find a way to go and win the game for the team and I have no problem with him throwing interceptions if he is making at attempt at what could be a big play.
Considering the Bears lost just 17-14 with six turnovers could be a sign the defense is as strong as it's ever been and they just need to fix the offensive line to get this thing turned around after the bye week.
It is still like this game slipped away, though. There were many chances and the defense and Jay know they had a golden opportunity to make a run at winning this game and staying in first place in the NFC North.
The picks Jay did throw are all ones he knows how to fix and the problems are all things he can fix. That's what is the silver lining in this game.
The fumble on the goalline was a situation where I'm sure Lovie did not want to challenge after just challenging a play earlier. But in all honesty, that is the play he should have challenged and he would have won that one to get the Bears out front.

Note: As I've been away, I have still been making NFL picks. If you know me you can see my picks. I'll update things Thursday for you guys and get you a new season number.


Yep, my boy Brock got his ass handed to him and his face busted in this weekend. Can't say I didn't see it coming. I'll say Cain Valesquez is great and everything I heard coming into this fight was how he was the real deal and such a great threat to Brock, who came out firing, but couldn't finish it quick enough to avoid danger.
I just hope Brock gets a rematch and doesn't have to go through an undercard fight to get a shot at his title again. I think he deserves it.

Alight, time for the Nussie Hunter and while I was on the subject of MMA and UFC I was going to mention Ariany Celeste is on the cover and in the pages of this month's Playboy. Bad news is I couldn't find photos suitable for this space.
I did, however, find some shots of Adriana Lima that are easy on the eyes. She might be the single hottest Victoria's Secret model. But maybe I'm just smittent! There's more here at Guyism.

Did Drew Brees just seal the NFL MVP?

Last night his five touchdown performance and complete dismantling of the once vaunted New England Patriots helped jump Drew Brees to the front of the line as the NFL MVP.
Look what Drew Brees has done this year. The man has thrown already for over 3,00o yards and 27 touchdowns in leading his team to an 11-0 record. I'm not saying he'll win the award right now, but he's on the most complete team (when healthy) and is the best player on that team.
The way I look at it is this, the award is the Most VALUABLE Player. And right now Drew is the most valuable in the league. He's what makes that entire offense run. If you take him out of the mix, what are the Saints? They are nothing.
I will give credit to the other candidates at this time. Brett Favre is most certainly No. 2 on the list at the minute. He has thrown just three interceptions all season and for him that is impressive. The Vikings are the only team that can give the Saints a run to me in the NFC and Favre makes that that much more dangerous.
You can't forget about Peyton Manning, either, who has an 11-0 team of his own to lead. With an offense that has no running game to speak of Manning has taken the team on his back and was part of a comeback that erased a 17-0 deficit. He is the most cerebral QB in the game and is just amazing with what he does at the line of scrimmage.
Finally, I'd have to say Chris Johnson of the Titans has to be on the list, too. He's on pace to rack up over 2,000 yards this season and has run for over 125 yards in the last five games. That is damn impressive. Add to that Vince Young and the Titans have won five straight games and you can't deny the switch has been flipped for the Titans.

Got a couple other things that we need to take care of today.
First off, figured I'd link to you this story in the New York post talking with Rachel Uchitel where she vehemently denies the affair with Tiger Woods.

Now to a wild hockey video. Watch for the goalie who almost gets his head taken off by his own player. Yikes!



Next up we got a couple Victoria's Secret features on the same night as the VS fashion show airs on CBS. Supermodel Candice Swanapoel was on the NFL Today Sunday. Just watch the guys act like school boys. Even Coach Cowher stumbles...



Alright, she wasn't the Nussie Hunter for the day, but rather my favorite VS model of all time. She was a bit of my obsession through college and was a virgin until she recently got married and had a child. Yeah, we're all jealous. I give you Adriana Lima. She is nothing short of perfect if you ask me.
