00:00The Chicago Bears team owner Virginia Hallis McCaskey has passed away today at the age of 102.
00:11Breaking news on the score is brought to you by Wildfire. Join Wildfire restaurants as they
00:16celebrate 30 years of serving delicious food and creating memories, but that is sad news today.
00:22Mrs. McCaskey was the owner of the Bears since George Hallis died on October 1st, 1983.
00:30That's a hell of a run, man.
00:31Wow. Over a century, obviously synonymous with the Bears, and okay.
00:41102. This is, and this will be one of those situations where there are people probably
00:48who had written obituaries of her.
00:50Those will start popping up.
00:52That are, no, but that she's outlived.
00:54Oh yeah, absolutely.
00:55Her eulogists like Jimmy Carter did. Did you see the number of people who had written
01:01the eulogies that had been waiting and waiting and waiting and waiting,
01:04and they didn't live to see the eulogy they wrote for Jimmy Carter run?
01:08No, I didn't, but that's fascinating.
01:09Yeah, it's remarkable. So she, 11 children, eight sons, three daughters, 21 grandchildren,
01:2040 great-grandchildren, and four great-great-grandchildren.
01:28That's a life.
01:29That's a matriarch. When you refer to a familial matriarch, that's the very definition.
01:39That's 11 kids.
01:42And you have great-great-grandchildren.
01:49What a life. That's really, that's where it starts when you talk about her
01:55obviously being synonymous with the Bears, but just what a life that she has lived.
01:59So there'll be a VHM patch on the uniforms this year as the Bears go win the Super Bowl
02:05in the memory of Virginia Hallis McCaskey, who has passed away at the age of 102.
