It would be news if he didn't. An owner, and family member of one of the founders of the league passed, I'd guess a rep from every team was in attendance.

Not surprised he went and of course he should have. I just have friends who would have been pissed if the situation was flipped and someone from Bears management would have showed up at a funeral. That’s my rub on the hatred some have and it’s silly.
I am not going to tell you who to be friends with. But, if I had friends who would act that way they wouldn't be my friends anymore.

Just think how much the Bears would raise ticket prices if they were any good.

Kevin Warren cites "strong home schedule" as one reason. What? So when it's a weak home schedule he will lower prices, right? Why say that, just raise the prices.Chicago Bears are raising season ticket prices by an average of 10%

Right. Strong home games because the other teams fans are willing to pay to watch there winning team. Funny stuff. He should have just left it alone. I hate stupid excuses.
Seems kind of weak to me. Outside of the division the home games are against the Cowboys, Giants, Browns, Steelers, and Saints.
Road schedule is brutal. Outside of the division the Bears play at Eagles, Redskins, Ravens, Bengals, 49ers, and Raiders.
Why do you only call Washington their original team name, but not the Bears or Ravens?
Should the Ravens be referred to as the Browns or Colts? Either way that would get confusing.
I am also one who never calls Washington either of their current names. Why? Because those names are just stupid. You do remember what the name was just before the current name, right? Now that was dumb. I also never call the Cleveland baseball team by their current name. That is also quite dumb.
It’s what you grew up with they will always be the Redskins no different than Comisky Park and the Rosemont Horizon.
Sears Tower
Hancock Building
Sometimes you stick with the old name for familiarity reasons (Sears Tower is just more familiar and comfortable than Willis Tower). Sometimes you stick with the old name because the new name is dumb (Who is going to call it 875 N Michigan Avenue?)
Heck, my alma mater has been Joliet Catholic Academy since 1990, but "Catholic High" or "Joliet Catholic" come out of my mouth almost 100 percent of the time. And it's not because I dislike "Academy" or "JCA," my mind just connects to the old name first and foremost and always will. That's why it's Sears Tower, Washington Redskins, Cleveland Indians, and the wrestling state championships last weekend were at "Assembly Hall" and not "State Farm Center."
You can rebrand something all you want, but people stick with what they know. May take several generations to get the majority to buy into a change and, even then, it is likely to change before then.
Fully aware they were The Washington Football club before Commanders …you said “either of their current names.” Might be mincing words..
New World Music Theater...I cannot keep up with their name changes!
Yeah, I do say "Catholic High" as much if not more than JCA. Speaking of Catholic High, I went to and graduated from a Catholic grade school here in Lockport with a guy who was the QB on their 1976 state championship team. I just learned the other day that he was diagnosed with Parkinson's about a year ago. I haven't seen him in years but I hear it is pretty mild at this point. I just hate hearing news like that.
I agree with everything in your post and the reasoning. I appreciate the fact that Wrigley has stayed Wrigley. But who knows how long that will last?
Agreed. The more I read and learn, the more I get intrigued without being truly intrigued. 😄 😄
