These are letters to the editor featuring comments and questions about the Bears and the baseball season.
Originally published Aug. 25, 1985
Take note, Bears, of the other successful Chicago teams. White Sox win their division by 20 games in ’83 – where were they in ’84?
Compare the Black Hawks in ’83 to ’84 and of course the Cubs of last year to this year. Same players, but completely different results.
Maybe these teams were reading about themselves too much, or complacent after signing their million dollar contracts, or instead of working hard to get in shape, they were too busy filming commercials or writing songs about themselves.

Why Wisconsin for the Bears?
Why do the Chicago Bears practice in Platteville, Wis.? Isn’t Illinois good enough?
