The Chicago Bears’ 100th Season Is Coming Soon
In 1920 George Halas established the Decatur Staleys, a founding franchise in the inaugural year of the American Professional Football association, which later became the NFL.
There have already been parties and conventions to celebrate the upcoming 100th season, from "Celebration Weekend," to dedicating each home game to a different decade of Bears football.
Fans are fired up, and not just because of the 100th season commemorations. They're fired up because this team is looking like a winner once again this year after way too many years of losing and disappointment.
The 2019-2020 Chicago Bears hype train is already rolling before we even hit August:
