The Packers and the Bears first met in 1921, when the Bears were the Staleys, the N.F.L. was the A.P.F.A., and F. Scott Fitzgerald was 25 years old. A trainload of 300 Packers fans, joined by a brass band in woodsman costumes (the Cheeseheads came later), traveled to Chicago to watch the 20-0 loss. Pete Stinchcomb opened the scoring with a 45-yard touchdown, then Pard Pearce set up a second score with that pinnacle of 1920s innovation, a forward pass, to Dutch Sternaman.
“After several wallops at the line Pard Pierce finally bucked through for a touchdown on a quarterback plunge,” read a newspaper account of the game. Oddly enough, the Bears used the same series of plays against the Seahawks last Sunday.
When a patient learns of a mesothelioma diagnosis, the questions that often follow may concern typical survival rates for mesothelioma patients. Can I become a survivor? In general, approximately 10 percent of mesothelioma patients will live for at least five years after they are diagnosed with the cancer. According to medical research, the average survival for a mesothelioma patient is approximately four to 18 months after diagnosis.
Understanding the average mesothelioma survival rate can be complicated because various factors influence the data. Survival rate may be influenced by the level of the cancer’s development (stage), the size of the tumor, whether or not surgery may be preformed and the age and general health of the patient, among other contributing conditions.
Roger Goodell just announced suspensions…wait a minute this isn’t that league! This is the Lingerie Football League and when the the Tampa Breeze and the Miami Caliente of the LFL play things always get heated. It’s a bitter rivalry and their most recent game didn’t disappoint. Tempers flared and the game ended with a brawl.
However, in all seriousness, there are some wild haymakers in this video and from the looks of it, a coach even got involved.
I must say, given some of the sorry fistacuffs we often see from their male counterparts in the NFL, NBA, and MLB, it’s good to know the ladies are willing to thrown down on command. No word on whether suspensions will be handed out, although I’ll take a wild guess and say the LFL commish is more than happy for the publicity, even if it’s somewhat negative.
Through the years, Brett Favre and the Minnesota Vikings have turned to the Detroit Lions for comfort when things weren’t going their way.
The Vikings are 21-2 against the Lions in their last 23 meetings and Favre has more completions, yards and victories against them than any other team in his career.
Now, with Favre hurting and the Vikings rendered homeless by a massive snowstorm, the Lions are there for them both again.
The Big Ten Conference today made several announcements that complete a series of decisions prompted by the upcoming addition of the University of Nebraska – Lincoln as the conference’s 12th member school.

Doctors Nat and Kat are your “Amazing Race” Season 17 winners.
At the start of the last leg, the pairs left within roughly 30 minutes of each other, so it really was anybody’s game going into the final stretch. They flew to Los Angeles, more specifically the pier at Long Beach.
There they had to ride a bungee swing in order to get the next clue. It was awesome, like bungee jumping but not quite as scary. During the bungee swing, Nat said, “I didn’t even pee my pants.” We’re sad that wasn’t the episode title.
The 33-year-old woman found dead in a bathtub at the swanky Soho House hotel Thursday has been identified as a gorgeous Manhattan fashion designer, a source said.

PORT BARRE, La. (AP) — A tractor-trailer slammed into a school bus that had its lights flashing and stop signs extended, critically injuring three children and hurting the other 18 and both drivers, Louisiana State Police said Friday.
