RIP, the original “Monster of the Midway”

[Reasoned]

I grew up watching and idolizing Butkus. A Bear’s fan knows PO’s and championships are very few and far between…..very few, but we’ve been blessed to witness some of the greatest LB’s ever, Butkus, Singletary and Urlacher to name a few….. and the greatest running back ever of course. So God will know what to do with The Enforcer.

One of the GOATs for sure. He , LT and Jack Lambert were for sure the most fearsome BAMF . Lambert would take his front teeth out before the game.

Yesterday was a sad day.... Bears were blessed with some awesome players. You named my 3 favorite LBs of all time. ... and of course Sweetness

What a bad ass.... he and Leroy Jordan were just flying missiles on the field. DB actually would tackle blockers if he missed the RB... when there was a 'standing pile' of guys trying to wrestle the RB down, they would tell the RB 'get down MFer, here comes Leroy..' LOL! Knowing he would just plow into the group regardless of hitting his own teammates or not... too funny.
