So first off, let me say that I am a sucker for black on black hats. I love it when the Sox do it, I love it when the Blackhawks do it and now i'm loving it as the bears do it. Here is a very simple hat – just black and white… but not without character. The black stitched "BEARS" text embroidered on the bill pops nicely and the white outline of the C logo is really distinct. I would not be surprised if we saw this hat in Navy as well as just solid black. I am not sure about the white piping on the side of the hat but I suppose it does tie the hat together to some degee. Overall, this is not the hat you want for the summer, but this is a solid hat to wear into the fall!
Well, it's that time again – time to shirk the responsibilities of the daily grind for… the weekend grind.
First off, for those who love pain, SUPER BOWL CLASSICS: XLI – IND vs. CHI is being played on NFL network tomorrow.- I don't know if I ever need to see this game again but in case you have the strength,check the Schedule here.
Second, I read a humorous tidbit curtousy of @ZachZaidman: McDonald's recalls 12 million Shrek drinking glasses.Their last recall: 100,000 Chicago Bears bobble head figurines in 2002 for excess lead.
Finally, what weekend open thread would be complete without a youtube clip? AM I RIGHT?
It's summer time and things are really starting to heat up in Chicago. There is only one cure, at least, one cure right this second and that cure is a mesh backed hat. I know mesh hats, especially mesh foam hats have something of a bad rep these days but lets be frank: mesh hats keep your head cool. You know it and I know it, so we can quit with the posturing. Anyhow, this is the 2009 draft cap in orange and i think it is pretty slick. The 3 tone accent on the side is a nice addition without being too overbearing on the overall aesthetic of the hat. What do you think? I think this will do just fine until we see some true mesh foam Chicago Bears Hats.
I think it is safe to say that Charles TIllman's Charity flag football game is well on its way to becoming an off season milestone. This event is a great time and helps many families in need.
Fans can watch on-field scrimmages with 14 teams comprised of eight “Regular Joes” and a celebrity quarterback, meet Chicago Bears players and visit the Cornerstone Fan Zone, which will include games and activities for children of all ages.
Kids will have a chance to win prizes such as an iPod Touch and register to participate in on-field activities. In addition, the Jesse White Tumblers will perform at 1:15 p.m.
