Today is the Day

Well the day has arrived, the day where the greatest game ever played is played.  The day where the greatest rivalry in the history of pro football meets in the most important game of the NFC season.  For the first time in this storied and hallowed rivalry these two teams meet for the NFC crown.  Chicago has met Green bay an NFL record 181 times, Bears have won 92 to the Pack 83 along with 6 ties.  But none of that history matters today, today both teams are 0-0.  Truth of the matter is, this rivalry comes down to this NFC championship.  The pride of two organizations are on the line today, this is much more than your typical NFC championship game.  This is the Bears Packers, it's a town vs a city, neighbor vs neighbor, it's like dinner at your in-laws minus the good food but every bit of tension.  This NFC championship has much more riding on it than a trip to Dallas and Super Bowl XLV.  This game has the pride of a town that exists because of a football team, pitted against a world class city that lives for Da Bears.  This rivalry has torn families apart, it has turned friends into foes for 90 years and counting.  Today is the day where an entire organization will forever lose a piece of their pride, today is the day that will forever change the way 2 fan bases look at each other, talk trash to each other.  Today marks the day where the greatest game ever played is played.   Today takes 90 years of records and throws them out the window, today history is made.
