Finally, former Bears great Steve McMichael is on the brink of making the Hall of Fame.
The senior committee announced Wednesday that it is sending him on to the full voting panel as a finalist for induction. While it’s not a guarantee, players chosen by the senior committee are near certain to get voted into the Hall of Fame.
For McMichael, 65, the honor goes beyond football. He was diagnosed with ALS early last year and has declined to the point that he cannot speak or move.
