000 to Chicago social justice programs Sometimes
#1
Bears players to donate $500 Authentic Cody Whitehair Jersey , it can be easy to forget that the warriors who strap up in pads and helmets every week also have crucial off-the-field motivations they constantly work to fix when they can. One day after the Bears captured their first-ever win under head coach Matt Nagy, the franchise announced an organized mission to donate $500,000 to local social justice programs around Chicago. After the NFL announced a new social justice initiative back in May that donated close to $90 million for programs around the country fighting for social equality, the Bears officially became the first NFL team to join their hands in with the league. Of every team in the NFL, Chicago is the first to maximize the league’s new directive to it’s fullest. A mandate some Bears say they were inspired to partake in thanks to the efforts of a certain former 49ers quarterback. “I feel like the best way to get change, is by committing to the kids that can still be molded and conditioned into the proper choices,” said Akiem Hicks of the Bears’ newly formed social justice committee. “I know this isn’t the first time that guys have been active in their community. This is just a big step as saying ‘we are fully committed, we’re all in.’ I think that’s a great issue that was brought up by (Colin) Kaepernick”Ownership led by George McCaskey will donate $250,000 Youth Eric Kush Jersey , while the Bears players themselves, represented by Hicks, Sam Acho, Mitchell Trubisky, and Trey Burton will donate the other $250,000. In doing this, the Bears hope to enact a responsible measure of positive change and growth in a youthful foundation in a time where the country is as divided as ever. They, more than anything, hope to be the galvanizing force for a movement. “Hopefully this creates some type of domino effect http://www.bearsauthorizedshops.com/auth...sie-jersey ,” said Trubisky. “There’s no bragging rights to being the first besides another team saying, ‘oh hey, we’re raising the money too in our locker room. Because then you have a bunch of communities not only rallied around a football team, but they become better places to live in.”Robert is the Editor-in-chief of The Blitz Network (subscribe here!), the managing editor of Windy City Gridiron, and writes for a host of other fine publications.

What was initial shock has evolved into beaming acceptance. What hasn’t changed and will likely take time to get used to, is the excitement that’s bubbling over. It’s not only Bears fans that are ecstatic about the superstar pass rusher’s addition. Bears players themselves had to show their outward giddiness with Chicago pushing it’s chips in on Mack. When you tell your players it’s time to win by making such a bold move, they’ll always respond perfectly in kind. It’s how you galvanize a budding Adrian Amos Jersey , young locker room. Here’s how several Bears reacted on Twitter to Mack being acquired by Chicago.Bears left tackle Charles Leno Jr. did what likely many across Chicagoland did yesterday: listened to Mark Morrison’s famed classic, “Return of the Mack.”Leno has some real moves, you have to admit. Linebacker Danny Trevathan showed that he sheepishly smiled as soon as he heard about Mack as a Bear. Someone’s job at inside linebacker just became that much easier. Meanwhile, Tarik Cohen said it all. The small running back only has to worry about Mack in practice. Another Bears defender, cornerback Prince Amukamara, couldn’t resist kicking Raiders quarterback Derek Carr while he was already down. Maybe Amukamara’s goal of 10 interceptions in 2018 doesn’t seem unrealistic with Mack’s added pass pressure.Backup quarterback Chase Daniel had the most formal and informal welcome for Mack. A man that’s been in Kansas City and seen what Mack is capable of as a defender. Taylor Gabriel was the one Bear that became the most emotional publicly, well after the Mack trade was announced in the early morning. This is the reaction of a player who knows his team is about to potentially embark on something special. You better believe Gabriel is thinking big.Finally, the Bears’ offensive mainstay in the quiet Jordan Howard, well ... he hung out with none other than Kanye West.That’s the biggest smile anyone has ever seen on “J-How.”Needless to say Authentic Khalil Mack Jersey , the trade for Mack makes the Bears relevant again. More importantly, it takes a rising Bears squad and lets them know that the No. 1 goal of their mission is to go trophy hunting. And they’re undoubtedly prepared for that lofty objective.
