To be more precise, it came about 32 hours early in the Schneider household. I absolutely love the Chicago 35-7 win over Green Bay. 2-0 vs. the hated Pack this year. I just hope they win the Super Bowl, so years from now when Packer fans are gloating about their title, I can remind them how the Bears smoked them in both meetings.
Green Bay-Chicago is one of the best rivalries in all of sports. OSU-Michigan ranks at the top. Yankees-Red Sox is up there. Army-Navy, just for the history and meaning behind the game. Duke-North Carolina for the hoopsters.
Speaking of OSU-Michigan, I love how the UM fans are all claiming Michigan St. is their real rival. Yeah, I wasn't hearing too much of that during the John Cooper era. Amazing how OSU ruling them over the last few years changes their tunes.

putting bears/packers up their with some of the greatest rivalries is really over rating that game, especially around these parts..osu/mich, browns/bengals,browns/ravens,notre dame/usc...I don't personally know anyone around here who cares about either team..Maybe last year when a few jumped on the bandwagon for the super bowl, but that was quickly lost as fast as the COLTS kicked there butts out of miami
That Bears-Packers rivalry, though, is known throughout the nation. Whereas the Browns-Bengals, Browns-Ravens is a bit more regional. I doubt someone is L.A. is concerned with "The Battle of Art Modell." Heck, I don't think anyone in Baltimore really cares about the Browns game more than as a divisional contest.
You did bring up a good one with USC-Notre Dame, though. I cannot stand either school, yet I always make sure to check out a few snaps of that game.
And, yes, the Colts did kick THEIR butts out of Miami.
