Indianapolis Colts open Andrew Luck era against Chicago Bears

By

Finally. After such an incredibly turbulent offseason, perhaps the most turbulent one since infamously moving to Indianapolis in 1984, the Indianapolis Colts finally have a real football game to play today, the first one coached by Chuck Pagano and quarterbacked by Andrew Luck.

He just wasn't the guy to bring them the … [Read more...] about Denis Savard flourishing as Chicago Blackhawks Ambassador

It's safe to say the Monsters of the Midway are toiling because their 2011 season is certainly in the toilet. The Chicago Bears didn't get the Green Bay Packers A-game, or even their B+game, but they still got beat pretty bad.
