Bears Loss to the Packers

Again, if this is true, you are right, JABF, and there's no hope here.  I may be heading toward another period of ignoring the Bears altogether.

Owners always have the ultimate decision-making authority and ownership has to sign off on major moves.  That is not a problem.  It's who's driving the bus.  If the owners are overruling Warren and Poles, then yeah it's hopeless and nothing will change.  

They swore to us up and down that Warren would have full control of football ops.  They'd be stupid to make a figurehead of the guy they hired to get a stadium deal done.
