Bears vs. Packers Now Comes Down to Pride

Although the executives at NBC were no doubt disappointed that the Giants beat the Redskins Saturday night, thus rendering the Bears/Packers game tonight all but meaningless in terms of playoff implications, fans could still be in for a very good show as they get set to ring in the New Year.

There are several sub-plots still brewing in the NFL’s oldest and most storied rivalry.  Will this be Brett Favre’s last game?  Can the Packers close the all-time series lead that Chicago currently holds?  Can the Bears go into the playoffs on a high note?  Will the game be a revenge game for Green Bay?  Will this game have an effect on 2007?

Overall, though, this game should be watched simply for the rivalry/dislike aspect, as these teams have been battling each other for the better part of 80+ years.  If you’d like to find Bears tickets like these, head to StubHub.com.
