Talks about the Chicago Bears on 2nd City Gridiron, writes about the NFL at Windy City Gridiron. Drinks bourbon, likely correlated to the first sentence.
@berckes.bsky.socialWeird. I thought they had it right since he was on the field for the first snap. Odd that they'd switch it
@2ndcitygridiron.bsky.socialReposted by @berckes.bsky.socialThe #Bears moved to 3-1 with a dominating performance against the New York Jets, and @berckes.bsky.social and @wiltfongjr.bsky.social broke it all down in their day-after, cooled-down review!

@berckes.bsky.socialBoth and some Zubaz while we're at it
@berckes.bsky.socialThat's a fun logo
@readjack.bsky.socialReposted by @berckes.bsky.socialThere's a popular meme that says that the Bears franchise last sold in 1920 for $100. That's wrong. I explained why yesterday. Enjoy!

@berckes.bsky.socialThe timeline of Chicago Bears mascots (official and unofficial alike)!!!
Check out the fun and interesting history of the humans inside the bear suits linked in the tweet below. #Bears 🐻
H/t to my better half for putting the timeline together.
@berckes.bsky.socialFlex on 'em
@berckes.bsky.socialBest part of that photo was the family didn't know who he was shaking hands with (with the railing blocking the face) - only that it was an important picture. I had a hunch it was Truman and tracked down another published photo to prove it. 🤓
@berckes.bsky.socialFor cryin' out loud!😂
@readjack.bsky.socialReposted by @berckes.bsky.socialJeff's story includes never-before-published photos of original Bears mascot Frank Dain in his bearskin suit, sent over from Dain's granddaughter. Really cool Chicago history!

@wiltfongjr.bsky.socialReposted by @berckes.bsky.socialAwesome research from my guy @berckes.bsky.social in his latest at WCG about the history of the Chicago #Bears mascot. There were a few before Staley stepped into the role, and JB gives us the full timeline with some never-before-seen pictures.
