How losers become winners.

My Chicago Bears football team has to be lucky to make the playoffs this season. That's the only way. The Bears don't have the requisite talent. In Sunday's season opener, the Bears defeated the Detroit Lions, 19-14. It was a battle between two pathetic teams. And the Bears lucked out. Looked for a moment like Detroit had pulled out the game in the last 24 seconds. With a touchdown pass in the end zone. But the officials in the broadcast booth overuled the call, claiming that the receiver dropped the ball. When he clearly didn't. Who am I to complain about that? The Bears are willing to take a win anyway they can get it. Even if it's undeserved. Heck, that's the nature of life. That's how losers become winners. --Jim Broede
