I’m sure the Bears will take plenty of fans to Gary. I don’t plan to be one of them. It’s an insult to move the Bears to Indiana. I hope Bears fans see that
I realize college sports is all about NIL and transfer portal and things. But today one of my former players just got into a 6-year dental surgery program. One of my former captains recently passed the bar. One is in medical school. To me, that matters a lot more
Just told a fellow Bears fan that we have to root for Aaron Rodgers today. He said “You might as well tell me I have to run a 4 minute mile. I can’t do it.”
I wonder if the Bears realize how insulting it is to Chicagoans that they would consider moving to Indiana. Why don’t they consider moving to Green Bay while they’re at it?
The Bears tore down beautiful, historic Arlington Park under the hope that they’d get a guarantee that their property taxes wouldn’t ever rise. It’s as if they’ve never been to the Chicago area before and don’t know anything about it
Little known fact: When the Bears beat Washington 73-0 in the 1940 championship game, Washington’s quarterback was Joe Flacco. He did better against them today
To say that Flacco had a career game today is a little unfair to the Bears defense. I mean he couldn’t have thrown for this many yards the first few years of his career. The forward pass was not legal yet
