I've been given the incredible honor of inducting Steve McMichael into the HOF when he goes in! As the 1st kid to induct his father back in '93, it feels like history repeating itself. I’m still in awe that Mongo handpicked me for this big moment. Man! 🙏🏽#Bears

Kangaroos gave my pops the Lambo after the Saints game when he broke Jim Brown’s record. I drove home w/ him that night. As we headed home, pops got it up to 120mph on I-90. Good times. #Bears @walterpayton.

The #Bears selected this guy 4th overall in the 1975 #NFLDraft. Some said he’d be a bust coming out of @JacksonStateU. 16,726 rushing yards later, he became the 🐐. It’s not about when you’re drafted, it’s about the hard work you put in after. #NeverDieEasy @walterpayton #TBT
