Chicago Bears Football Club, Inc.
 PROFILE
Once touted as the Monsters of the Midway, the Chicago Bears have failed to scare anyone lately. Three straight losing seasons prompted the firing of head coach Dave Wannstedt in 1998. His 1999 replacement, Dick Jauron, hopes top draft pick Cade McNown can quarterback the team to glory once again. Founded in 1920, Da Bears have won nine league championships, including Super Bowl XX in 1986. After battling two decades, the team and the city have agreed to a $365 million renovation of historic Soldier Field as part of a $580 million lakefront improvement project. Chairman Michael McCaskey (grandson of founder George "Papa Bear" Halas) and family are the primary owners of the club.
