No Chicago athlete was more beloved than Walter Payton.

His death 20 years ago shook Chicago, and led to one of the most emotional, stunning, Bears games ever.

This is the true story of Sweetness, Bryan Robinson, and The Block.

A Thread.

#BearsPackers #SavoringSweetness
Walter Payton’s skillset was as vast as it was deep. Yet that is not what defined him as a football player. What defined him were his intangibles:

His heart, his will, his leadership, his toughness.

His spirit.
When the Bears drafted him in 1975, he boldly — and rightly — made this declaration:

“When I get through with Chicago, they’ll be loving me.”

It happened much sooner than that :)

For the #Bears 100th season, I'm planning on sharing some game history for each day of the calendar on this thread. 🐻💯
9/1 On this day in #Bears history...
In 1991, the Bears beat the Vikings 10-6 on the strength of a Tom Waddle 37 yard TD grab. The Bears would go on to an 11-5 record that year in Ditka's last postseason appearance.

9/2 on this day in #Bears history...
In 1979, a 6-3 victory over the Packers on the strength of a 40 touch, 174 yard game from Walter Payton. The head coaches that day? Neill Armstrong v Bart Starr.
