Slanted toward Bears

This is a great page. But it is clearly slanted towards the Chicago Bears. It is not very objective. For starters, in every tie game, the phrase "Chicago Bears" is shown under the winners heading, while the phrase "Green Bay Packers" is under the heading of loser. That's hardly objective.

There should also be more Packer memorable Packer victories listed. In time, I'll be happy to list some.

But the biggest error is the fact that in that 1971 game, the Packers won, not the Bears. This is simple history, and can easily be verified anywhere.

Removing the Ditka quote is also biased. Ditka never disagreed with the call. He only disagreed with the length of time it took to make it. Again, this is a fact that should be included.

Notable moments and games: Criteria

Around Wiki - the term "Notable" is very subjective. In this case, there needs to be some set criteria in determining notoriety. KyuuA4 20:05, 17 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
