Never paid too much attention to the Bears but was watching them one day a few years ago and got to wondering why they had GSH on their uniform. So I looked it up, George S Halas, founder of the team and what not.  Man's been dead 41 years, and they still have his initials on the uniforms.  I kinda think it's a little weird, is he like some kind of saint or something?  Or is it just one of those things, nobody wants to upset tradition?

Dood founded the NFL. Not just the Bears.

It pisses me off to no end that his daughter's initials are more prominent on the uniforms now.
