It should Be Robbie (18 K) Gould...
>> Tuesday
With his 12th consecutive field goal (dating back to last season), Robbie, 18 karat Gould, his now half way to Kevin Butthead's franchise record of 24. Here's to you kid... If he could throw, I'd want him as qb.

Wow, Robbie "24-karat / fools' / Heart of / Mellow / Marquette" Gould is one huge geek.
Am I the only person who thinks that a 3-0 team whose kicker could be described as its MVP may have a "Super Bowl contender" reputation built on tissues and lies?
Or am I just being pessimistic?
Not saying the Bears can't do well this year.
Just that having your MVP be a kicker can't be a great sign. That's just one step away from having the punter be your MVP.
The Bears had a first round bye last year too, and where the fuck did that get them? They were just a week late getting to their couches.
I do, however, agree that this Bears team is different and is probably a step above last year's team. Though I don't really agree that the Giants are as shitty as they looked on Sunday and I still the the Falcons can make a run in the NFC.
And, if the Falcons do get into the playoffs, you can't tell me anyone actually wants to play against Mike Vick. For all his drawbacks (see: all), he's been fuckin' lethal in the playoffs during his short career.
Also - look for Carolina to get a shot in the arm in the next few weeks as Delhomme and Smith start to get back on the same page. There's still a lot of talent on that team.
Elsewhere, the Cowboys are decent, but I'm gonna go with the G-Men in that division and out west the Seahawks are still the team to beat, it's just gonna take a lot more of Matt Hasselbeck's right arm for them to succeed. But, they'll still be scary if he can speed up the learning curve with Deion Branch and add him to D-Jax in that stable of receivers.
Mike, your Chicago fan grass-is-always-greener inferiority/victim complex has to stop. This ain't The Score 670, and I'm not Mike North.
By the way, is that title a typo or am I just reading it wrong? No one's said anything, but I just realized I don't know what it means.
Hey, somebody's gotta be the token prophet of doom in this group of rosy-eyed optimists.
