I have been in Chicago for 21 years. I came here in June of 2001 to work for the Chicago Bears as Director of College Scouting under General Manager Jerry Angelo. During that time, I also worked closely with team President and CEO Ted Phillips. In all the time I have been in Chicago, I have never seen anyone vilified as much as Ted, and I have always wondered why?
Ted is not only an outstanding President and CEO of the Bears, but he's also a very good person. He gets a bad rap from both media and fans when the fact is very few people know what Ted Phillips does.
