It's Bears Week again. Every Packer fan in the Cheesehead Nation is fully aware of this—which means that it won't be a necessarily good week.
It's not like the week will be intolerable for cheeseheads, or anything, just uncomfortable. You probably don't want to cut one off in traffic this week.

It's not like the cheesehead will go postal on anyone—no, cheeseheads are content with just shooting deer; it's more like how you would feel if you had to eat celery all week. Only celery. And nothing else. For every meal. All week. You'd do it, but you wouldn't be happy about it.

What will be on every cheesehead's mind all week just is how much they hate the Bears. This is a fact. So I thought I'd put together a few of the countless reasons why we hate the Bears to relieve some of the gnawing angst we all feel this week. Here are five reasons we Packer fans hate the Chicago Bears:

1. They are from Chicago.
Nothing good comes out of Chicago. Never has. In fact the only good things to come out of the entire state of Illinois were Abraham Lincoln and Ray Nitschke. Even Santa Claus hates Chicago. He hasn't been there since 1947. And if you are on Santa's bad side, and you live outside of the state, you will get Chicago Bear jerseys and paraphernalia for Christmas. It is worse than getting coal.
2. Dick Butkus
Some of this isn't necessarily Dick Butkus' fault. It is the media's. Because somewhere down the line, the media decided that Dick Butkus was a better linebacker than Ray Nitschke.
3. Al Capone/Geraldo
It is common knowledge in Wisconsin that Chicago people come up north to Wisconsin for vacations. I "FIB" you not. Yes, Al Capone used to head to Wisconsin for some time away from violin parties and tommy-guns.

Now this was common knowledge to the locals. But then Geraldo Rivera had to bring his entire production crew into the state, so he could open Al Capone's secret vault. It was a nationally-televised event, complete with all the extravaganza of a major promotion.
4. Refrigerator Perry
5. The '85 Bears
Granted, the 1985 Bears were a good football team. In fact I would bet Dick Butkus' mother's leg that there hasn't been a better team suited up since then—and that includes any team Emmit Smith played on or anything the Nor-Easter blow-hards up in New England misinterpret as the Second Coming.
The '85 Bears had it all. Plus, they had Walter Peyton.But they were still the Chicago Bears
