P.S. -- All that bullsh!t about the "Super Bowl Shuffle" really diminishes that Chicago team in the eyes of some football purists.

And I can guarantee you that a lot of hard-core fans and sports media people see that team as forever tarnished because of Mike Ditka's decision to take Walter Payton out of the game and have that fat slob Refrigerator carry the ball for a touchdown late in the game.

I'm not a hard-core fan, as I said that that was the last Super Bowl I watched. But
growing up a Chicagoan, I can tell you with certainty that we loved that team and its
whimsical fun, even the Fridge's TD. Payton was no doubt the instigator of that, being
the man no one could out-humble, or out-class, or out-hustle.

Yep, us die hard Bears fans were stunned when da coach made that choice.

Loved our man ‘sweetness’, still can’t believe he’s gone :(

The Superbowl shuffle will live on, we still laugh about it!
