The rare occurrence of last week was actually not that rare. My buddy, Mike Holzman, received his father’s South lot parking pass again. However, Nicole needed to move forward with her school work so we were on our own for this tailgate.

Since she did practically all of the work last week, Mike ended up putting this tailgate together. He brought burgers but the fact the grill worked was a major plus. I, with a 6-month-old at home, brought nothing to the table except a 12-pack of beer.

Washington Redskins at Chicago Bears
In what is definitely a low point for the Bears this season, they lost at Soldier Field for the second time in as many weeks. The Redskins held onto a 17-14 victory as DeAngelo Hall intercepted Jay Cutler four times – tying the NFL record for interceptions in one game. He is the first to intercept four passes since Deltha O’Neal achieved the feat on October 7, 2001.
