Fans should unionize to help control things like ticket and concession prices, but also to motivate the team regarding what jerseys they wear to games.

Now this is all tongue-n-cheeck, but...

How about fans who wear jerseys to the games only wear those of either HOF Bears players or those with storied careers with the Bears? Message to the players: You want to see your jersey worn? Play like a HOFer and have a CAREER in Chicago worthy of fan worship.

Too often fans run out and get the jersey of some flash in the pan player. I'm guilty of that with my Alshon Jeffery jersey. I should have just gone Butkus, Urlacher or one of my all-time favorites... Tillman. Lesson learned.

Alright, flame away. Just remember this was only a thought and I'm not demanding that you agree or follow me on this.

Cheers! Almost gameday.

I have issues with grown men donning clothing that has another man's name on the back.

Well, to each their own I guess. However, since many fans do wear them to games...

I don't understand. Unionize? Like form chapters, elect leadership, pay dues, and enter collective bargaining with the teams? What?

Nah, just wear jerseys what other people find worthy, to show ownership and players who's the real bosses and to show who/what what they support. #takethepowerback

I am going to be wearing my Mack jersey for at least 5 yrs. By that time, I will have spilled plenty of mustard and coney sauce on it from chili dogs during the game.
