Very interesting as this documentary takes a look at the fans who populate the North end zone,section 250. The first 2 episodes were tonight with more to follow.

Am I the only guy watching this Doco?

I am really enjoying this look at the people who attend Bear games faithfullyin section 250. All kind of different background stories being told. It makes for a fast 30 minutes.

I don't really enjoy "greatest fans in the world" reflections.

I've been watching this as well. Caught up on all the episodes so far - six I think? All in all, I like it. It is definitely for the diehard Bears fan (I am) because there was not a lot of good from last season.

I like how they have meshed the Cubs WS run in between the Bears season and how it affects some of the fans featured. Great images of the city, fans and Bears. It is sort of like an updated video version of "Bleacher Bums" for Bears fans.

If you are a Bears diehard and don't mind being reminded of a less than stellar season and truly enjoy different types of characters, you will like it. If you can't stand to relive anything from Bears 2016 - skip it.

I'm all in. This Italian rates it 3 out of 5 meatballs... Take that, Goff. :thumleft:

Nice group of people. It was touching how the one guy wanted to help that woman who just got layed off.

Yeah, that was a class move. I have met that radio guy from Savannah a couple years ago. He's a very nice guy who loves sports, especially football.

Just binged it.

A whole season on the Beer Man would have been interesting.

I thought he was an actor for the first 4 episodes or so.

Guess they should have lost that game to the Niners in Week 13.

Definitely--I was ready to hear more about that guy and his life...

I found the 6 episodes on watchESPN. I enjoyed it. I was thinking it was only 6 episodes...but at the end they said on the next...so are there still more shows to come?

I liked the beer guy and he had a good voice for the show. For some reason I now hear LTG's posts in his voice.

The Cubs stuff woven in was good as well. I am very curious to know how long that couple says married :lol: I am guessing not very long. I think his sports life is going to take a big toll on things.

I think the next 2 episodes premiere tomorrow night at 6 or 6:30 if I'm not mistaken... Not sure if they are the last?

Why was Luther Campbell sitting fully-clothed in a heart-shaped hot tub surrounded by women talking about "bromance" for a Bears fan show?

DA BEARS!!

Did anyone see the aftershow hosted by the portly Sarah Spain. She had the folks on from the show asking them questions. They even mocked the Bears draft.

This show sucks and the Bears are awful in it.

But, damn, I want to watch football right now.

Was that a live show? It was very awkward.

The live studio audience sat in stunned silence.

Wake me up when the Bears are over .500 after 12 games. Not wasting my time on them. I'd sooner spend my few minutes of entertainment consumption on Noisewater's podcast than the Bears.

i saw her on with "the 6" on ESPN and she has definitely gained weight. she's wearing a lot of dark colored dresses like she's constantly in mourning. it hides a lot but i know it's there.

She's a big gal.

Not saying fat. She isn't.

But she could have navigated the '80s without shoulder pads.

I can't believe they made that last installment an entire hour. Thirty minutes would have been perfect to wrap up all of that.

Not going to win any awards but I still enjoyed it.

Like Dr. Ken, it made me realize that I miss football.

Bring back Lovie Smith and Grossman. Meatball - out.
