As always, the Turley Turkey bowl will feature the Bears against the Redskins. I am the coach of the Bears and John Rice is the coach of the Redskins. Even though he was placed on the injured reserve, Rice will bravely lead his team back to the field of battle. The Bears continue to hold a long unbroken record (at least here in McLean), but Rice is an ever-creative coach and has threatened some new and devious plays. No one is currently on the injured player list for the Bears of Virginia and our players as usual will be hyped up on donuts and hot chocolate. Despite the bitter cold, we will play on. Until then, Happy Thanksgiving to one and all.
UPDATE: In a devastating loss (the first in the history of the Turley Turkey Bowl) the Redskins prevailed 21-14. To make matters worse, the Bears coach dropped not one but two easy catches. Fortunately, those other Bears prevailed in Detroit so we could call the day a draw.
