BOURBONNAIS, Ill. -- Inside the jacket of "The Captain Class" -- a book that identifies the 16 greatest teams in sports history and examines what makes their leaders’ tick -- is an endorsement from Chicago Bears general manager Ryan Pace.
“'The Captain Class' really resonated with me,” Pace wrote. “It will absolutely be part of my thought process as we continue to build our roster.”
The GM’s praise is more than just hallowed words. Pace bought a copy for several of his players. And in October 2017, he flew the author, Sam Walker, out to Chicago to meet with the entire Bears offense.
