ARE YOU READY FOR SOME BLOGGING!!
mgrexo3, "Is the Bear's Defense still an Elite Unit"
mgrex03 is a blogger for stampedeblue.com an Indianapolis Colts blogger page. As football fans know the 2008 season is only days away and people are really getting excited. The 2008 preseason is over, and we now will find out who are the teams to beat and who are the teams to beat on. I am a Chicago Bears fan and they are playing the Colts the first week of the season. It is predicted that the Bears are one of the teams to beat on, they made the Superbowl only 2 years ago, and many experts are predicting failure for the 2008 season.

"That brings us to the 2008 Preseason for the Bears. They faced the
Fearsome Foursome of QBs: Brodie Croyle, Charlie Frye, JT O'Sullivan, and
Brady Quinn,and they finished 32nd in Yards Allowed, including 27th against the pass, and 31st against the run. As a point of reference, the Colts
finished 30th against the run, and they played backups and 3rd stringers for
3/4 of the Preseason. The Bears finished 30th in Points Allowed. These are not stats for an elite defense."
As any football fan knows the preseason is not to be taken seriously, it is a time for a team to work the kinks out and see players in action who don't play in regular season games. It is also a way to see your rookies in action, it is not a way to judge a football team.
To answer the question of whether or not the Bears defense is still an elite unit, i believe they are. Granted the played a lousy preseason, and they are not as young as they used to be. I still believe that the defense is a force in the league and has the potential to bring the team back the the Superbowl with some help from the offense. I am not saying this because I am a Bears fan, I am saying this because the Bears were in the Superbowl only 2 years ago, and they still have their core players on defense and if they stay healthy, and get some help from their young offense, we have the potential to make it back to the big game, which is the Superbowl!
As you can see I am a die hard football fan and as I researched this topic of blogging I found there to be many people across the USA who share the same passion I do. Some people find more serious topics to blog about such as current events and the election, and that's cool with me. I didn't really know much about blogging and now I can see that there is a type of blogging that can interest everyone. I think that this is a new way to talk football with people I may never see in real life. I would rather blog about thing that interest me like sports, and the upcoming NFL season.

Quite a post! You are clearly a football fan. But, you need to stick to the topic when you post. The topic was blogging, not the Bears. So I needed to see more about how the NFL or football fans are using the medium of blogging. How is that changing the coverage of the game? How is that changing fandom? What's in it for the fan? What's in it for the NFL?
