George Halas, Papa Bear himself, was involved with the Bears (née Staleys) since the team as created in 1919. Like many founders at the time George did everything. Coach, president, offensive player (wide receiver) and defensive player (end). He played football at a time when it was really just a derivative of rugby and brawling. He literally witnessed the NFL rise from a bunch of corporate sponsored semi-professional clubs to the huge sports league it became. Even before he did in 1983 (at 88) he made one last significant impact on his beloved Chicago team: He hired Mike Ditka as head coach.
