To those heartbroken: What’s it like to be a new Bears fan?

[Toast88]

First off, welcome to all the new Bears fans. Not sure why you chose this team, but we’re glad to have you.

One of the things you should know is that this team will always disappoint you and will never beat Green Bay .

I apologize that any of you didn’t get the memo and believed for one second that the Bears would win. That optimism will go away with time.

I hate this goddamn team

Honestly, I’ll take the loss here as it was just a blocked FG when I expected a blow out loss. Happy to see Caleb put the Bears in the position to win the game.

There are no new Bears fans! There haven’t been new Bears fans in decades!

thankfully once we die, there won’t be anyone else to follow this shitty franchise.

clearly they need Jobu in the locker room and maybe some incense and a voodoo priestess

Washington was heartbreaking. This game just won me my parlay and drove another nail in flus coffin

Truth be told, I’ve made A LOT of money betting the Packers money line every single Bears game.

I’ll be happy to start losing that money, but today’s not the day.

Oh I've been here the whole time.

I've lost count at the number of times I've had to repost this comment.

It’s the shiny new QB that gives us hope!! When was the last time he scored a TD again??

Encouraged with the progress he made today, but he knows he has to make strides.

I’m just enjoying how you’ve turned total nihilist after the offseason hyping up the generational QB

I've been a fan for 3 decades. When Dick Jauron was living in Lake Forest I called his house so much asking for free tickets he paid to get my number blocked (pre-caller ID days). This loss was a gut punch for me, you can gatekeep my penishole if you want to hand waive me away as a new fan.


With that said I 100% expected to lose by 4 scores, so shame on me for not expecting the Bears to play just well enough to give me hope before the devastating haymaker of reality obliterated my fragile psyche.

I still believe in Caleb Williams, but I could see it not working out. I ultimately think it will, but we’ll see.

I think you’ll find looking over my offseason posts that I was always upfront about the possibility of a bust or the Bears continuing to suck. That was always an acknowledged possibility. We’ll see how it turns out.

For the life of me, I can’t understand any Bears fans expecting to win any big game until there’s :00 on the clock.

The Hail Mary was only surprising to the most naive of Bears fans.

The blocked FG was only surprising to the most naive of Bears fans.

Im not suprised that they lose, its the creative ways they find to lose in situations that are overwhelmingly winnable that keeps gutting me.
