The Chicago Bears are staring down the barrel of yet another lost season. After another 0-3 start, the postseason is a longshot at best. But it’s not another losing season that’s scary for the Bears organization and ownership. The sad fact is, a lot of fans have stopped caring. Apathy is the worst thing a sports franchise can face, when people just stop caring.
Old dinosaurs like me who still vividly remember the 1985 season are dying out. Even fewer remember the NFL championship they won in 1963 before the Super Bowl era. Heck, a lot of you reading this post probably were just kids when the Bears made their last trip to the Super Bowl in 2006.
