NEW YORK -- Injured Bears linebacker Brian Urlacher wishes he was with his team preparing to face the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday.
Still, the World Series is pretty cool.
Urlacher was a guest of Yankees manager Joe Girardi for
Game 6 on Wednesday night. The two got to know each other when Girardi played
for the Cubs.
"I just like to watch sports," said Urlacher, who
dislocated his right wrist in the Bears' season opener at Green Bay on Sept. 13
and is out for the season. "They're great athletes and I'm excited to see it up
close like this."
