We Need Change


Dear Mrs. McCaskey,
I’m a Chicago Bears fan, and am not pleased about what I have seen from the team this year. Or any year, save for 2010 since 2009. The excuses are endless as we have had 3 general managers and head coaches. We get players who turn out to be total busts, such as Gabe Carimi or Shea McClellan who bottomed out. In free agency we get big names both player and coach wise.
NOTHING IS working, and the excuses are running out, even as you charge fans way too much money to watch the Bears lose in person. Virginia, you are the daughter of George Halas who founded this franchise close to a century ago. What would he think of the mockery you put on the field every Sunday. He would not be happy with you and want you to sell the team to someone who actually cares about the product on the field instead of the pocketbook.
Why is the blame on you? You hired Phil Emery who screwed big time with the Jay Cutler deal and failed draft picks. You fired Lover Smith when he had great teams, but had rotten luck with injuries and assistant coaches. You allowed Marc Trestman to come in and ruin our defense. John Fox is a good coach but his record due to past mistakes looks bad.
Speaking of bad, we need a new QB. Barkley had one rough outing and that shows that he is either a backup or lower tier starter. We need to keep him along with Connor Shaw but get rid of Cutler ASAP. The only reason why he broke the records is because he has been mediocre longer than any QB in recent memory.
You did an okay job, but it is time for your family to sell this team, even if it means collectivism like that evil puke stomach bile colored team up north. Ask the Cubs what changes in ownership can do.
Sincerely,

Every single Bears fan

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
