The majority of NFL franchises are over 60 years old at this point, most of them are "historic". It means the same for the Bears as every other team.
NFL likes history. Heck they tried to bring back Lombardi for this last Super Bowl. He has nothing to do with football today.
Many of the teams you are talking about have history without being historical... except to their fan base. That is good too.

Here's a hint Gregg - I was originally just giving you a hard time, but the next time you want to start a post with "Ah, you are one of those" in a negative context, just send me a PM instead maybe.
The reality is that for most NFL fans, all the teams are historic at this point. Every fanbase, outside of a few of the more recent expansions have generations of support at this point. They are all historic. This isn't the XFL.
Suggesting that things are different for the Bears because they are historic comes across as a smug fan who has no context of the current NFL where every franchise is well established.
