O.T. = BEARS or colts
I live in the NW. Growing up the colts games weren't on over here only the BEARS. So I am a Chicago fan. Plus for me it takes 30 mins. to go see a BEARS game if I went to the stadium. Where as if I wanted to go to a colts game it would take me 2~3 hrs. to get to Indy to see a game.

Yup, since most all of us here are in the northern end of the state, we grew up w/ the Bears,,,My wife is a huge Bears fan, and even her family , who are in Indy,,are pulling for the Bears, except for her dad, who's a Colts fan,,,,but don't get me started on him LOL.
Even tho one team's over the state line a bit, we here can prob call this a I-65 Superbowl, and treat the Bears like our home team i quess,,since up here the Bears are all we had for most of our (at least me LOL) lives.

You'll love the place,,,remember tho they are mainly mail order only, with local walk in hrs on fri/sat , best to check their web site (they are a sponsor on TRT also) for hrs etc. they let ya pick up a order you've put in with them, if you re in the area, but it's best to call first.They are WAY too busy with everything , to have someone traisping around the place(other than the livestock area, they kinda don't allow customers in the drygoods aisles, they used to have a large number of big$$ stuff walk out the door  ) so it's best, if you are gonna be in the area, to sent them your order, let them know you are going to pick it up,and make arrangements on yours n theirs best time to pick up , and them you can check out the livestock in person ,when you show up.
Check out their website, They have loads of cool stuff, and at great prices,,(plus they price-match,if you show them another place's price cheaper)I've known Jason and his "crew" since they sold outa their home, and the following moves to larger stand alone buildings. Not sure where the new place is gonna be(like i mentioned ,they are gonna be closed over the weekend for moving)but from what i hear, my wife sez they are gonna be 10 minutes from her sister's house,,and with my wife visiting often enuf, that makes it that much easier for her to swing by and pick up a order i place with them.For us in this area, most all shipping done by them shows up the next day  ,making dealing with them that much nicer.Premium does business like all the other places need to,,#1 in my book.
Sorry to sound like a commercial LOL,Can you tell i like the place? 
Also, sorry to hijack the thread,,,

Believe in blue! Go Colts!! Peyton deserves this a lot more than Grossman. I've waited 9 long years to watch him play in the Big Game, and now it's finally happening! I'm pumped.

Giants? Blah! GO BUFFALO !!!
Although, I can't believe they hired Dick Jauron as thier head coach. WTF !
I'm routing for the Bears, since I lived in Chicago for ~8 years. Although, prior to that, I lived in Indy for 1.5 years. And...I would really like to see Manning/Harrison win it all, since they've always gone to the play offs and lost.
Tough call, Go Bears, Go Manning.

Starting to get a little more excited. Can't wait for this. I want the BEARS to win but would love for my squares to hit. I want my cake and eat it too.
