Frequently Asked Questions
Are these bears quotes about the animal or the football team?
Mostly the football team - two quotes name a well-known NFL franchise or a childhood team called the Sugar Bears, rather than referring to actual wild bears.
What does treating "offense as if it's bubonic plague" mean about the Bears?
It's a critical, exaggerated comment suggesting the team avoids or fears playing an offensive style of football as if it were something dangerous to be avoided at all costs.
Is "bears" used here in the sense of tolerating something?
Yes, two quotes use it that way - one says a comparison doesn't hold up well under close scrutiny, and another says even divine patience with wrongdoing has its limits.
What is the Sugar Bears reference about?
One speaker recalls joining a summer recreational team called the Sugar Bears at age 4, an early, informal introduction to organized sports.
