    There was even a band called "The Refrigerettes" in that 85 season. This was by far the most funny, absurd, craziest, dominating season of any sports team ever. Each character was bound to be there with Da Coach leading the crazy and highly skilled bunch of players through that wild year. All stars were aligned for that one special season... The SB shuffle, the Fridge and above mentioned band, the 0 yard punt, the fans celebrating the snow falling, the Ditka-McMahon shouting matches, the 2nd half comebacks before the D got fully on track by week 6, the helicopter mooning by McMahon, Ditka's funny interviews, the 46 literally destroying opposing QBs by a dozen, McMahon talking himself into the famous TNF Vikings game... Bears mania and a whole city going complete berserk. Unforgettable. It will never be matched... The only downpart was the Patriots reaching the SB instead of a Dolphins re-match. There is no doubt in my mind Marino & co would have left New Orleans as demolished as that NE team.
    Why has Hollywood not yet made a movie of that season. It had so many side kicks, it could last 4 hours and never get boring.

    You can thank Buddy Ryan for the rise of the fridge. The story goes, as Ditka himself told it, that he loved William Perry in college and thought he'd be a great addition to the Bears, Ryan didn't WANT him and, hating Ditka, snubbed the Fridge. Soooo, not wanting to look like a fool and also wanting to get the most out of his draft pick, Ditka started using him in his offense. Once he found out that Perry could catch and run, it was game on and the rest is history.

    4:14 Thank you for pointing that out. Some Bear fans are such hypocrites. On SB Sunday all they said inside the NE 10 yard line was "Give it to the fridge!!" Then after the SB it was "Why didn't Walter get a TD?"

      Miss watching that Bear team. Today's Bear team is an embarrassment to what the Bears organization once stood for.

    They didn't even mention the reason Ditka did that was because Buddy Ryan wouldn't play him on defense and Ditka wanted to prove he wasn't a wasted pick
