Newcomers to Soldier Field joke it looks like a spaceship landed on the lakefront.  But, its the Seahawks sea foam neon green uniforms unveiled Sunday afternoon at Qwest Field in Seattle that looks like something off the Starship Enterprise.

Maybe the Seahawks are hoping the Bears will puke from the looks of them because it may be the only advantage in this match up.

Pregame inactive lists reveal Seattle will be without 7 starters including quarterback Matt Hasselbeck, MLB Lofa Tatupu, and LB Leroy Hill, backup to the starting Corner Josh Wilson is also out, starting FB Justin Griffith, starting LT Walter Jones, and his backup Sean Locklear.  Uh, good luck Seneca Wallace.

Alex Brown will keep his consecutive games streak in tact, starting his 114Th today on a bum ankle.  But Lovie Smith will not have TE Des Clark or SLB Pisa Tinoisamoa both out of today's contest.

With the lineup the Bears are facing, they should get their first win in the emerald city since 1976.
