Oakland Raiders Have Peek-a-Boo Pattern against the Chicago Bears

What does "peek a boo" mean? Here is a definition:

peekaboo: a game played with young children; you hide your face and suddenly reveal it as you say boo!

In 2010 the Oakland Raiders are going to show their talent and strength, their true face, against the Chicago Bears, and scare them with a "boo."

The pattern that emerges between the Raiders and the Bears is so close in some time periods that you can be certain there will be tension in 2010 when they encounter each other.

For the past seven years the Oakland Raiders, so to speak, have been hiding their face from their opponents.

Although there is a tremendous talent pool, they will finally show who they are in 2010. And, that is going to scare a few people, especially the naysayers and haters.

The face of the Oakland Raiders has the grimace of a fearless man, a mean and determined team, turning the Bear into a victim, rather than allowing the Bear to be a predator.

Look at the data and count the number of times the Bears and Raiders have tied. It is an indicator, I believe that they are almost evenly matched.
