What ails the Bears? Let's start at the top

On Sunday, Bears principal owner Virginia McCaskey turned 102.

Team founder George Halas’ first child was born before penicillin. She was a little girl when Charles Lindbergh flew nonstop from New York to Paris in 1927. She was a teenager when Jesse Owens won four gold medals at the Summer Olympics in Berlin in 1936 and when the Hindenburg blew up in 1937.

And she was 63 when the Bears last won an NFL championship in January 1986.

This isn’t a woman to be trifled with.
