Postponing the Chicago game?

There are a lot of other logistics to consider as well. Getting the production trucks from one venue to the next. Finding hotel rooms for all production crew plus the players. Staffing the stadium, and so on.

Maybe they could just bar the Bears from practicing while the Redskins are at the funeral.

That's actually an excellent idea. It's logistically very easy, and would help even the playing field as far as game preparation is concerned. Also, the Bears are a pretty classy organization and I'm sure they'd comply with that request with no qualms.

I hate what has happened, and feel for everyone on the team, but I hope they do not reschedule this game. I am flying from Calgary (Canada) with my Dad to watch the game. I am looking forward to seeing this game as we have both been waiting for this game to come.

That's a GREAT idea!
Although, I don't know if the league could actually "BAR" them from practicing. After all....the BEARS didn't do anything that would require a disciplinary act such as barring them from anything.

However, there are two scenarios here. If the BEARS win Sundays game, against the GIANTS, they will typically have Monday "OFF" anyway. And, I would imagine that there may even be many of them there at the funeral, as would a lot of other players from around the league. If for any other reason then just to show support....and respect.
Which brings me to my second point.....they will probably be there to show support and respect. Therefore, there would be no reason for the league to enforce such a "bar".

And, mostly.....
I wouldn't think that the BEARS, or any other team really, would use a time like this to claim an "Upper Hand" against an opponent.
There are times when we all play a team that has come off a short week. But this is way different.
That would be pretty sh*tty, in my opinion....and a very unfair advantage.
I don't think the fans in Chicago would look at that very favorably.

(Although.......I wouldn't put it past Belicheat. LOL)


I am going to start planting that seed on my board, however.
I think it's a great idea. And the least we can do.
