Additionally, we are making progress on our stadium development plan. Our deliberate and intentional process continues, and when a site is selected and a decision is made, we will be sure to communicate the plan for our Season Ticket Holders. We know and understand the critical role you play in our future.

am I wrong for thinking Warren had no business being in the interview room at the Combine?

Bears hire Ted Crews as special advisor to Kevin Warren and chief administrative officer

Ted Crews is taking his three Super Bowl rings to Halas Hall.

Crews, the longtime head of P.R. for the Chiefs, has been hired by the Bears. He'll serve as special advisor to president/CEO Kevin Warren and chief administrative officer.

Crews spent 12 years in Kansas City, rising to the title of executive V.P. of communications. He has 26 years of NFL experience.

It's a great hire for the Bears and a big loss for the Chiefs. Ted Crews gets it, plain and simple. He understands the role of media in the promotion of the sport (even when media might be critical of a team), and he has always been helpful and responsive and friendly when it comes to anything we've ever asked of him.

It's also rewarding to see someone who has spent so much time in and around the inner workings of an NFL team be entrusted to cross over from a P.R. job into something that entails greater responsibility and influence. More teams should be viewing P.R. professionals that way. So what if they never played or coached or scouted? At some point, a couple of decades or more of devoting their professional lives to the sport becomes highly valuable, in its own way.

The Bears will get something else from Crews. Like anyone who found a career in and around the NFL, there was an initial team that sparked the passion. For Crews, it was the Bears.

"That was my first favorite football team, the first team I remember following," Crews said. "When you have Walter Payton, Jim McMahon and the Fridge, I was into that team. I remember watching that team vividly, watching the NFC Championship Game when the snow started falling and the defense turned it up. So you are talking about a place where there is familiarity and a built-in affinity."

It's a win for the Bears and a win for Crews. It's also a problem for the Chiefs, who suddenly have some big shoes to fill.

The crisis consists precisely in the fact that the old is dying and the new cannot be born; in this interregnum a great variety of morbid symptoms appear.

As we embark on the 2024 season journey together, I feel a sense of honor, enthusiasm, and gratitude. Gratitude that we are blessed with the opportunity to represent the Chicago Bears – a NFL charter franchise that is willing to embrace transformation, challenges, and adversity – and gratitude for what we stand for as an organization, with a detailed focus on values that were established by George S. Halas and are now carried forward by the Halas-McCaskey Family. We are focused and determined to go forward, full steam ahead and with intentionality.

There is an intense amount of enthusiasm present at Halas Hall. I am fortunate to feel it and witness it every day in our building, on the field and in the community displayed by our outstanding players, coaches and staff, and, truly, first-hand by you, the fans. We have the greatest fans in all of sports. It was great seeing you here at Halas Hall during our training camp practices, as well as at each of our four preseason games. Fortunately, you have been able to bear witness to the development of the organization and hunger for more success, whether that be in-person throughout the preseason, on our interactive social and digital media channels, or through our presence on the award-winning series, Hard Knocks. Thank you for your care, commitment and dedication to the Chicago Bears – our team, together.

On the cusp of kicking off our 105th season, we embrace the understanding of constant improvement and renewed perspective in a consistent manner. On the field, our leadership has built one of the most exciting teams in the National Football League. Utilizing strategic, calculated and, courageous decisions and actions over the last two years, General Manager Ryan Poles has executed the organizational vision of building upon an exciting young foundation with developing talent and acquiring more through the NFL Draft, free agency and trades. Our roster is filled with high-quality players and people, that is a testament to Ryan and his staff working diligently and strategically to pursue any and all avenues to build our team. The partnership that Ryan and Coach Matt Eberflus has blossomed through their shared commitment of excellence. As we are on the doorstep of the season, I am energized to work alongside Ryan, Coach Eberflus, our Chairman, George H. McCaskey, our entire ownership group, our players, and our staff who will continue to push the pace in pursuit of greatness.

With Week 1 upon us, we look forward to welcoming you back home. As we approach the start of the regular season, it is an appropriate time to highlight advances made to your experience of attending a Chicago Bears game, where our goal is to make you feel at home.

A state-of-the-art access system, Evolv, was introduced at the beginning of last season with the goal of getting you to your seats quicker, easier and safer. At our most-utilized points of entry (Ticketmaster Plaza, Gates 38 and 47), the free-flow entry and screening technology from Evolv will help accelerate entry, while not sacrificing the most important element to us, safety, while also scanning fans six-times faster, and more thoroughly, than a traditional security screening. We strive for making your gameday experience one that begins with getting you and your loved ones into your seats quicker, easier, and, most importantly, safer.

An element of 2024 that we are excited to introduce is the implementation of Chicago-based concessionaire Levy to oversee a new food and beverage plan throughout the entire stadium. We are committed to delivering the highest-quality product to you, and when it comes to food, we listen. This is Chicago, we know our food, and we know how important high-quality food and beverage, along with accessibility and speed-of-service, is to your gameday experience. That is why we partnered with Levy to completely revamp our food operations, with renewed options and innovative methods for execution. On top of highest-quality products and an increase in ease of execution, you will also notice an entire reimagined experience throughout the stadium, with new and innovative offerings, such as The Odunze Dog and Bear Claw pretzels and donuts, along with signature cocktails, Chicago staples and gameday features that we all love. To make the process smooth and efficient, over 60 grab-and-go self-checkout point-of-sale systems have been added throughout the stadium. We will also be implementing systems for mobile ordering in the 200-level of the United Club, working closely with Levy to prioritize getting you back to your seat as quickly as possible. We look forward to hearing your thoughts on our new food and beverage offerings and systems, as your perspective is always appreciated.

Throughout the stadium, you will also see an increase in the exclusive discounts and rewards offered through the Chicago Bears Mobile App brought to you by Verizon, as we have increased the discount savings up to 20 percent for Non-Club Season Ticket Holders and up to 30 percent for Club Season Ticket Holders.

Additionally, our partnership with the world-class leader in retail operations, Fanatics, will present us the opportunity to utilize their cutting-edge technology that will keep shelves stocked with a new inventory management system, making it simpler to access your favorite Bears gear, as well as quicker points of sale to expedite checkout. With the organization forming the official partnership with Fanatics, Bears fans can expect to see the latest and highest-quality, Chicago Bears gear on our shelves, available to you.

As Ryan Poles and Coach Eberflus have publicly stated – We plan on taking the North, and never giving it back. That is what we strive for. We will remain steadfast in our pursuit of championships by operating with a championship-level mindset and work ethic.

We are the Chicago Bears. We do not give up. We do not give in. We attack every challenge set forth in front of us one way, united together. With you by our side, through thick and thin, we will reach greatness.

It is time. The 2024 season is upon us.

Wishing you and your family grace and prosperity. Take care and Godspeed.

Bear Down!

Kevin Warren

President and CEO

Are you stoned or pissed off, or both, when you create these postings?

First and foremost, I want to express my deepest gratitude for the lasting leadership and legacy of Virginia Halas McCaskey, who passed away on February 6, 2025. I pray that Mrs. McCaskey will rest in peace.

I also want to personally thank you for your unwavering loyalty, passion, and commitment to the Chicago Bears. The positive energy at Halas Hall is intense, determined, and palpable. As we enter an exciting time for the Chicago Bears, we are honored to share this memorable journey with you.

While we did not reach our goals during the 2024 season, we are making clear, intentional, and strategic decisions to ensure our 2025 season meets the expectations of both our organization and our fans. Our focus will remain the same - we must perform well on the football field, continue to build a world class business operation, and break ground on a transformative stadium.

As part of our 2025 planning, we have taken diligent and deliberate steps to evaluate our overall ticketing structure. Utilizing in-depth analytical methods is critical to creating informed organizational decisions. After careful and thoughtful consideration – incorporating market dynamics, industry trends, and a strong home schedule – an average increase of 10 percent for our 2025 season ticket package will be instituted. Detailed season ticket renewal information will be emailed to you later today.

A key step in our future football success is the hiring of Ben Johnson as the Head Coach of the Chicago Bears. We are confident this decision will positively impact this franchise for many years. Coach Johnson has assembled a first-class staff and together, they are determined to teach, coach, and empower our football team. General Manager Ryan Poles and Coach Johnson are building a strong and positive working relationship, setting the foundation for future success.

As Coach Johnson stressed during his introductory press conference, we are committed to creating an environment of accountability, discipline, and hard work. We are building an organization that will embrace challenges and operate with a fearless, innovative, and championship mindset. Ryan Poles and Coach Johnson will be aggressive in free agency and will also embrace the opportunities to build our roster during the 2025 NFL Draft. We currently have eight total draft picks, including three picks in the top 41 selections.

I continue to be inspired on a daily basis by your phenomenal support as we build the Chicago Bears, both on the field and in the community. The future is bright, and I am confident we are on target to build the Chicago Bears into a championship-caliber franchise celebrating sustained success our fans have earned and deserve. Please know that your energy creates a home field advantage that is the best in sports. We need you to stand tall with our franchise and our players.

Thank you for your sincere support and for energizing us to strive for excellence. We appreciate you. Take care, Godspeed, and Bear Down!

Sincerely,

Kevin Warren
President and CEO

Because you are stupid, maybe read some books educate yourself.

We walk, talk, and won't shit our pants

it's time you all are hauled out to the public square and shot in the face

In honor of Virginia McCaskey’s memory, here’s why we’re increasing prices.

Caleb Williams isn't really a "true" rookie because he turned 23 late into his 1st season in the NFL!"

That statue of Virginia is not going to build itself.

My no-depth analytical method is that you lost ten games in a row.
