Chicago Bears www.usa-erleben.de Chicago Bears National Football League Reise "Reisen so individuell wie Sie" Angebot Stand 01.10.2021 Feuer und Eis Touristik GmbH Südliche Hauptstr. 33 - D-83700 Rottach-Egern Tel: +49(0)8022 663640 Fax: +49(0)8022 6636419 Email: [email protected] | www.feuer-eis-touristik.de Kurzbeschreibung: „Da Bears“ wie sie von ihre Fans genannt werden, konnten ihren letzten Super Bowl Sieg im Jahr 1985 verzeichnen. Innerhalb ihrer Division und Conference sind sie nichts desto trotz ein ernstzunehmender Gegner. Besonders die große Rivalität mit den Green Bay Packers aus Wisconsin sorgt für ordentliche Spannung im Stadion. Der Kampf der Konkurrenten gilt als der längste innerhalb der Geschichte der NFL. Beide Teams siegten bisher jeweils 94-mal gegeneinander. Sechsmal trennten sich die Mannschaften ohne Sieger. Die Packers und Bears spielen in derselben Division, so dass sie jede Saison mindesten zweimal aufeinander treffen. Der Junge an der Spitze der Bears ist Mike Glennon in der Rolle des Quarterbacks. 2013 gelang dem Texaner der Einzug in die NFL bei den Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Erst im März diesen Jahres unterschrieb Glennon seinen Vertrag bei den Chicago Bears um künftig die meisten Yards für die Mannschaft zurückzulegen. Chicago, im Bundesstaat Illinois, ist die drittgrößte Stadt der USA und bietet den Besuchern sehr viel Flair und Kultur. Der Ruf Chicagos ist immer noch aus den Zeiten des Gangsters Al Capones geprägt. Doch diese Zeiten sind längst vorbei, denn die Stadt ist heute ein bedeutender Wirtschaftsstandort, was sich in sieben überregional bekannten Universitäten niederschlägt. Auch die Kunstsstadt Chicago ist bedeutend. Werke von Picasso, Chagall und der französischen Impressionisten belegen dies. Chicago bietet zahlreiche einzigartige Museum (wie das Polizeimuseum oder das chirurgische Museum). In ihrer ethnischen Struktur ist die Stadt sehr ungewöhnlich, denn Chicago ist nach Warschau die zweitgrößte polnische Stadt, hier leben aber auch viele Schweden (im Stadtteil Andersonville), Litauer und Ukrainer.

  • Mcafee Takes a Handoff from Sid Luckman (1947)
    by Jim Ridgeway George McAfee takes a handoff from Sid Luckman (1947). Ironton, a small city in Southern Ohio, is known throughout the state for its high school football program. Coach Bob Lutz, head coach at Ironton High School since 1972, has won more football games than any coach in Ohio high school history. Ironton High School has been a regular in the state football playoffs since the tournament’s inception in 1972, with the school winning state titles in 1979 and 1989. Long before the hiring of Bob Lutz and the outstanding title teams of 1979 and 1989, Ironton High School fielded what might have been the greatest gridiron squad in school history. This nearly-forgotten Tiger squad was coached by a man who would become an assistant coach with the Cleveland Browns, general manager of the Buffalo Bills and the second director of the Pro Football Hall of Fame. The squad featured three brothers, two of which would become NFL players, in its starting eleven. One of the brothers would earn All-Ohio, All-American and All-Pro honors before his enshrinement in Canton, Ohio. This story is a tribute to the greatest player in Ironton High School football history, his family, his high school coach and the 1935 Ironton High School gridiron squad. This year marks the 75th anniversary of the undefeated and untied Ironton High School football team featuring three players with the last name of McAfee. It was Ironton High School’s first perfect football season, and the school would not see another such gridiron season until 1978.

  • Papa Bear's Nightmare
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 19, No. 1 (1997) PAPA BEAR'S NIGHTMARE By Phil Dietrich Akron's spanking new Rubber Bowl bore little resemblance to a graveyard in 1946 when professional football's sagest elder, George Halas, launched his Akron Bears of the American Football League. Dedicated Aug. 10, 1949 before an overflowing crowd of 40,000 on the eve of the International Soapbox Derby, it already had played to a National Football League turnout of 23,720 Sept. 7, 1941 when the Cleveland Rams defeated the Pittsburgh Steelers, 17-14. Now, one world war later, the Rams' NFL franchise had moved to Los Angeles, leaving the fertile northeastern Ohio territory without a professional team. Without, that is, until the birth of the All-America Conference with the Cleveland Browns as a key member. Named for coach-general manager Paul Brown who previously had enjoyed considerable success at Masillon Washington High School, Ohio State University and Great Lakes Naval Training Station, the Cleveland team had more appeal in Brown's home state than it did in George Halas' Chicago. There the competition from the All-America Conference wasn't taken too seriously, particularly by Halas, owner-coach of the defending NFL champion Bears. An opportunity presented itself to take advantage of the new league's inexperience. How? By staking territorial rights to metropolitan areas in which there were no NFL teams but where the AAC had franchises! Such territorial rights would become valuable when the AAC, in desperation, sued for peace, as it appeared in the summer of '46 the newcomers would have to do.

  • Pack Only Tied the ‘Monsters’
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 5, No. 10 (1983) PACK ONLY TIED THE ‘MONSTERS’ Green Bay's 49-point half matched Bears' 1941 effort By John Gunn The Register (10-21-83) This hasn't been John McKay's year: Tampa Bay is 0-7, the Buccaneer fans are wearing paper bags on their heads in embarrassment and the Green Bay Packers recently scored an NFL-record 49 points against the team in a half. Actually, a check of records by The Regisler disclosed Thursday, the 49 points only tied a record -- if that's any consolation to McKay. The Chicago Bears, the so-called "Monsters of the Midway," trailing, 14-0, at halftime, scored 49 points in the second half against the Philadelphia Eagles on Nov. 30, 1941, a week before the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor. The National Football League office in New York confirmed Thursday that the Bears' 49 points, indeed, was the record the Packers tied on Oct. 2 although the 1941 total had not been listed. A spokesman said the Elias Sports Bureau, Inc., which handles record-keeping for the NFL, had not been aware of the mark but will include both the Bears' and the Packers' points in its next guide. Two teams in 1950 had scored 48 points in a half. In perhaps one of its most understated leads, The Associated Press reported of the 1941 game: "Outplayed in the first half, the champion Bears put on an impressive display of power in the last two periods to rout the Eagles, 49-14, before 32,608 at Shibe Park." What did Coach George Halas tell theBears at halftime? Recalls Hugh Gallarneau, former Stanford back named to the College Football Hall of Fame last year and now a vice president of Hart, Schaffner & Marx in Chicago: "It was very simple.

  • Joe Kopcha Recalls 1932 Title Game
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 8, No. 1 (1986) The Bears' victory in Super Bowl XX marked a return to glory for one of the NFL's most successful franchises. It was kind of a surprise to realize that the Bears first NFL championship did not come until 1931. A 1921 title was accomplished while the team was called the "Staleys" and technically under a different franchise; additionally, the league was called the American Professional Football Association in '21. That 1932 title was won in what will probably always rank as the oddest playoff for a championship ever. Although it was a post-season game for the championship, it was not a Championship Game but a play- off between two teams that were tied for first place in the one-division NFL. The results went into the official standings and dropped the loser into third place. Two PFRA members actually played in that game: Glenn Presnell, star back of Portmouth, and the late Joe Kopcha, the Bears' great guard. The following is based on one of the many interviews of Dr. Kopcha before the Super Bowl. He died in 1986. * * * JOE KOPCHA RECALLS 1932 TITLE GAME By Leo R. Joint, Sports Editor V-M Weekend, Jan. 24-25, 1985 The year was 1932. The day, Sunday, Dec. 18. The Chicago Bears were playing for the National Football League championship against the Portsmouth (Ohio) Spartans – who became the Detroit Lions in 1934. A week earlier, an arctic storm had ripped through Chicago and it was decided the title game would be moved from Wrigley Field to the warm confines of Chicago Stadium.
