As we all know the Bears won a thrilling back and forth overtime game against division rival, the Minnesota Vikings this past Monday.
Now lets call this game for what it is……..a meaningless win at the end of a shitty season.
That being said, that meaningless win is great for the stimulus of Chicago’s economy. Let me explain…
If the Bears lose that game (which I think a lot of us were thinking while Brett Favre was premature fist-pumping with 16 seconds to go) everyone is pissed off, finishes their beer at the pub they watched the game at, goes home, falls asleep, and wakes up the next day to the expected newspaper headline of “Favre and the Vikings stick it up our ass again!” and then they go to work.
Now, with the Bears win, everyone is happy, they stay for a few more celebration cocktails at their pub (stimulus), they tip the barkeep a little more money (stimulus), they talk about how great it is to stick it up Brett Favre’s ass (awesome), they take a cab home because they were too drunk from the celebration cocktails (stimulus), tip the cab driver (stimulus), then they order Chicago’s Pizza (stimulus/awesome) and tip that guy a little something extra (stimulus), then they call in sick to work the next day go out to lunch at a local Chicago eatery (stimulus) while reading the Chicago newspaper they just purchased (stimulus) with the headline “Suck my dick Brett Favre, Signed the Windy City.”
The end.
