Meeting Ookie Boddie

After a week without Bears football, I can't wait for Monday night. Rather than crossing the Atlantic, da Bears will travel a mere 800 miles to Philadelphia the home of the Eagles. Joined by a now healthy Earl Bennett, da Bears will face every animal lover's foe Michael Vick (aka Ookie Boddie). Ookie was his nickname as a child and Boddie is his father's last name. Vick's parents didn't marry until Michael was 5 and the children chose to keep using their mother's last name.

Enough gossip, let's talk menus. Monday night's menu could be a combination of Philadelphia and Virginia - Vick's home state. Some Philadelphia traditions are Philly Cheesesteak Sandwiches, Hoagies and Turtle  Soup with Sherry. Virginia boasts ham, peanuts and Brunswick Stew. Get those creative juices flowing Bears fan. It's almost time for football!
