Chicago is cold for Monday night's Bears-Cowboys game, but a wind chill below zero has never been enough to stop Mike Ditka. The only Super Bowl-winning coach in Bears history has gone on to become something of the team's unofficial mascot over the last 10 years, but the city's love for him has never wavered. At halftime of Monday Night Football, the Bears gave Ditka an honor he probably deserved long ago, retiring his No. 89.
Ditka, face as red as roses, accepted his honor as only he could: by yelling "GO BEARS" as the members of his congregation screamed in rabid approval.
