Book Description
The 1985 Bears, with their explosive concoction of talent, personality, eccentricity, and ego, were unlike any other collection of professional athletes that came before them. They changed the way Americans view their sports teams, and no other team since has even approached the phenomenon that swept the nation during the Bears' run to Super Bowl glory. But the volatility that helped make the 1985 Bears the greatest football team on the planet also contributed to their inevitable implosion. This is the real story of one unique team's rise to glory and a behind-the-scenes look at their fall from grace.
From the Publisher
"That 1985 season was the most fun year I ever saw, not only for broadcasting, but for the whole NFL. For the country, really. . . . I mean, the whole thing was right out of central casting. . . . It was like a smorgasbord, a buffet." -from the Foreword by John Madden
"People liked John Wayne to walk into a bar and announce, ‘Whiskey for my men and beer for my horses.' That was us." -Dan Hampton
