This guy! Lol. Not gonna lie though, I kinda like this comparison as silly as it sounds!
On Wednesday Bears WR Brandon Marshall showed up to a press conference with the Charlie Brown Christmas tree and used it as a way for the media and fans to understand the hope he has for the Bears after losing the last 4 out of 5 game and now stand at 8-5.
According to Doug Farrar at Shutdown Corner:
Before his Wednesday meeting with the local media, Marshall put up a sad little Christmas tree that played “Charlie Brown’s Theme” on the press room podium. And of course, it looked very much like the tree that everyone’s favorite cartoon kids tried to dress up.
“Right now, metaphorically, our season looks like this tree. We’re standing, bare and just ugly … but there’s still hope. As a kid, it doesn’t matter how your Christmas tree looks — you’re still waiting for Christmas Day. You have hopes and dreams that Santa Claus is going to bring you the things you asked for. It’s always a possibility, and where we stand today, our goal is to win the NFC championship, beat the Green Bay Packers, and win the Super Bowl. All that can still be under this Christmas tree.
“Whenever you’re down, you’ve got to try and create some type of balance. So this is a perfect little thing for me to keep me going.”
