About Joey »

Hello fellow friends and sports fanatics. My name is Joey and a native of the greatest city on earth Chicago, Illinois. I am here because like everyone else I love to talk sports with other fans, trade questions and get the latest rumors and information going on in sports. I am one of the biggest die hard Bears fans around (I was literally born doing the super bowl shuffle..........J/K).

My Bears have more regular season and overall victories than any othe franchise in the NFL.

We have 26 hall of famers and won NFL championships in 1921, 1932, 1933, 1940, 1941, 1943, 1946, 1963,
and the most dominate football team in the history of the NFL in the 85 Super Bowl champion Bears.

I served 4 years in the Marine Corps and have 3 tours of duty. I have waited my entire life to see the Bears get back to Super Bowl and when they finally do Im stuck living out of a house in Iraq. There was not one place I didn't go that I didn't have a Bears Jersey on the wall.

My prize Bears possession is my walter Payton autographed picture. I have only meet a few NFL players in my time and when I meet Alge Crumpler I tried to convince him to sign with the Bears but obviously that didn't happen.

I recently had one of my articles on posted on the CBS sports web site http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/teams/page/CHI

I am proud to say that My city has produced the greatest basketball player of all time and unlike another team who waste's space on the north side my White Sox won the world series in 2005 and don't have to say " This is our year" every season with false hopes

I am not a sports writer or looking to be one by any means I’m just a BEARS......SOX......BULLS fan looking to read good sports with good people.

GOD BLESS STEVE BARTMAN..!!!!!!

Hey Joey,

I just wrote a little something on how I am coming to terms with the Cutler move. Its more opinion than fact, but if you took a look, I would appreciate it. Thanks

Hey Joey,

Decided to have some fun with this. It's a humor piece about Survivor for athletes. I had a blast writing it, and I hope you get a good laugh out of it :)

If you get the time, I'd love to hear what you think. If not, no worries.

MERRY FUCKIN CHRISTMAS BRO!

A pro bowl QB and LT in one day!

I'm still in shock I can't believe JA pulled it off. I'll take Cutler over paying the money to 2 no.1 picks that might be good. Were goin at least 12-4 no doubt. Pace only gave up 1.5 sacks last year in 14 games and has only missed 4 starts in 12 years. He's still got a few good years left.

Mr. Garcia your ranked at no.4 for Bears writers.

Nice job bro I told you these articles we have been writing would pay-off!

I can't edit your article to put the links in but i will write up the secondary analysis tomorrow night and put them at the end.

Keep up the good work and it won't be long before you and I are at the top. You should come up for the Bears game in Buffalo. It's a great city and you can go to the Casino at Niagra Falls in Canada right there. Or we could party in Buffalo and get shit faced.

I'll talk to you later Mr. Bears no.4 ranked writer.

Hey you made it to Twitter this morning. I get a bunch of Bears feeds on my twitter, they just grab stories from a bunch of sites with the occasional Bleacher Report article, but usually only from writers who have written a ton of articles and have high ratings. Today I got your Offseason analysis of quarterbacks article. Congrats!
Vic
