If this is Brett Favre's last Monday Night game, I think the conditions are perfect; cold, outside, and against the Bears. Regardless of their record, regardless of everything that has happened this year, this is football.
Football is tradition, and these two teams have a great tradition of hard-hitting, great cold games; in addition, these two teams hate one another. There are various matchups in the NFL that, when played, the record of each team doesn't matter, and this is one of them.
Patriots/Colts, Cowboys/Redskins, Steelers/Ravens, and the oldest of all, Packers/Bears; these rivalries bring to mind great players, hard-hitting, tradition, and since these teams understand one another so well the outcome of these rivalry games can never be predicted. All there is to do is pick your team and root them on; after all, isnt that what football is all about?
For these games there is no such thing as an advanatge, there is no such thing as a guarantee; the only factor that matters is how well the two teams execute; regardless of the starting quarterback, regardless of how the other team's defense has played all year; you can bet on one thing... These teams come to play!
The best rivalries are often between teams within the same division; and tonight, all eyes will be on the NFC North as these two rivals continue their tradition.
