    When Will the Bears Stop Living in the Past?

    When Will the Bears Stop Living in the Past?

    The Bears haven't won a Super Bowl in nearly 40 years. Yet, the organization does nothing but celebrate the past.  The fans are getting tired of constantly talking about 1985 and all the great defensive players that have played for the team over the years. We want a legit QB. We want to watch a modern-day NFL offense.  In today's episode we talk about why the Bears need to change their identity. We also give our thoughts on the stadium situation and what could be done to Soldier Field and the surrounding area.
