Everybody, their mothers, and the Sisters of Mercy are betting their money on the Seagulls to clean the floor of Soldier Field with Da Bears--as thoroughly as those Charmin Bear hucksters on TV wipe their red asses.

I’m not kidding. Over 90% of the money wagered so far is backing the ‘Hawks--and I’ve never seen that lopsided a dynamic plying this handicapping hobby for 16 years.

It's like, enjoy Seattle going all over the Windy City. 

Usually such near-unanimous support for one NFL side compels the Sharp money--including the not so sharp  Gairzo--to the opposite side and, more often than not,  that proves to be a winning gambit.

I just can’t bring myself to back the Ursines here.  The entire organization from owner to towel boys is a hot toddy of catastrophe, and even though the half-point hook worries me, I have to take the Seattles, who are playing for a division, over the Bears, who are playing for a vacation--or should I say praying?  

Chicago is such a disaster right now, Mike Singletary couldn’t  clean up all the crap soiling his once-proud franchise if he was armed with steel wool Dude Wipes.

(I know what you’re thinking--(”How far can this sick bastard take the metaphor?”)

Answer:  At least three or four pages more...

Take the ‘Gulls , lay the Points and bet the Under.

Seattle 30

Chicago 10
