[QUOTE="SpartaChris, post: 323116, member: 1007"] No, it's not a BS kind of saying. Yes, there are exceptions to the rule, just like with everything else in life. The lottery is one of them. The reason why the Bears are more successful at this specific point in time than the Packers is because they have been prepared for when lucky bounces go their way. For example, they didn't squander opportunities against us when we played them. They didn't commit boneheaded, drive killing penalties. They didn't fumble at the most inopportune times. They didn't miss a field goal. We did all of those things, and then some. Sure, we outplayed them on paper, but they capitalized where we did not. They were prepared and when the opportunity presented itself, they capitalized. Luck = Preparation meeting Opportunity. I agree with you about the reason us being so scary is because we've found a way to win despite getting the un-lucky breaks. We're still in this thing because we've been *forced* to be better. And that makes us scary. There's no reason why Green Bay should be weary of facing ANY team this post-season. Other teams should also be weary of facing us. We've played damn good ball when it counts, and I expect we'll continue to do so. [/QUOTE]
