Caleb got up with 20 seconds left and what would've been a 57 yard FG and rather than take a timeout to set up a pass to get closer, he lets it expire.
Bears will leave with a timeout. That was one of the most inept coaching decisions I've ever seen

Here’s the choir I sing with, the Rogers Park Singers. One of the only things I ever wanted in this life was to be in that number and I’m glad to say I’m finally doing it with such beautiful people.

It’s based off of my full name, followed by Studios.
KP is my first and middle name initials, and I have 11 letters in my last name lol.
