CHICAGO (AP) — The Chicago Bears have ended a pregame perk that prompted a federal lawsuit by a lifelong Green Bay Packers fan who wanted to wear the Wisconsin team’s green and gold apparel to warmups at Soldier Field.Bears attorney Paul Greenwalt told The Chicago Tribune that the team is eliminating the program that allows season ticket holders to attend pregame warmups in a marketing reorganization. He said that means Russell Beckman’s lawsuit https://www.thebearsfanshop.com , which accuses the Bears of violating free-speech rights by prohibiting fans from wearing Packers gear at the warmups, is no longer applicable.A judge has given the team until mid-February to file for dismissal. The Bears sought to have the case dismissed last year, but the motion was denied.Beckman filed the lawsuit in 2017 . He lives in Mount Pleasant, Wisconsin about — an hour drive north of Chicago — and holds Bears season tickets, the lawsuit said. Beckman said he was able to attend the pregame warmups in 2014 and 2015, often wearing a Packers’ jersey and hat, green and yellow beads and with his beard dyed green.The Bears sent Beckman an email before a Bears-Packers game warning in capital letters, “NO OPPOSING TEAM GEAR WILL BE ALLOWED,” according to the lawsuit. He went in Packers apparel anyway and was turned away.Beckman sent an email to Bears executives urging them to “stop coddling” the team by creating “segregated safe spaces for Bears fans,” according to court records.Beckman sought to have a temporary restraining order and injunction so he could wear Packers’ attire at the pregame events while the lawsuit is being decided Chicago Bears Customized Jerseys , but a judge denied the request.

Obviously, with it being so early, there are pretty modest limits.With that being said, it’s worth looking them over and at least getting a feel for how many games the Bears are favored in as of today.Rudimentary spread reminder, the team with the minus ' is the favorite Chicago Bears T-Shirts , a plus (+) is an underdog. The number after the plus minus is what the score difference has to be for a bet to pay out (so Bears -3, Opponent +3 means if you bet Chicago they would need to win by 3 or more, while the opponent would need to win outright or lose by no more than 3 to over. If the game ended 3-0 it would be a PUSH and no one would win).The total means total combined points for both teams. Totals are not available for all games yet.If I reference a moneyline bet, that means betting that team to win straight up, moneylines are posted similarly to spreads with a +/- but the number after changes. The number reflects how much a $100 bet pays. For example, if a team is -100 on the moneyline, you must bet $100 to win $100, if they are +100, a $100 bet pays $100 (also known as even money). At -250, you must bet $250 to win $100 (Your original $250 plus $100 more) while +250 means a $100 bet would pay $250 (plus your original $100 back).Now https://www.thebearsfanshop.com/hats , onto the Bears spreads:Week 1: vs. Green Bay - Bears -4, total 45.5, moneyline Chicago -190Week 2: at Denver - Bears +1Week 3: at Washington - Bears -2.5, total 42, moneyline Chicago -145Week 4: vs. Minnesota - Bears -3.5Week 5: at Oakland (London) - Bears -6Week 7: vs. New Orleans - Bears -1Week 8: vs LA Chargers - Bears -3Week 9: at Philadelphia - Bears +3Week 10: vs. Detroit - Bears -8Week 11: at LA Rams - Bears +5.5, total 51, moneyline Chicago +210Week 12: vs. New York Giants - Bears -10Week 13: at Detroit - Bears -3.5, total 43, moneyline Chicago -175Week 14: vs. Dallas - Bears -4, total 42 Chicago Bears Hoodie , moneyline Chicago -190Week 15: at Green Bay - Bears +3Week 16: vs. Kansas City - Bears -1 total 51, moneyline Chicago -115A few notes: I presume that Week 17 isn’t put out because that’s the week most likely to be influenced by teams sitting their starters. The Bears are favored in 11 of their first 15 games, which isn’t surprising since they are coming off a 12-win season. The four games they aren’t favored in are tough road match ups against Denver, Green Bay, LA Rams and Philadelphia. Chicago are more than a touchdown favorite against the Giants and home against the Lions. It seems awful early to throw those types of spreads out there, but the general opinion is that those teams will be bad again. The Giants beat the Bears a year ago in OT.As for the Bears’ Super Bowl odds, SportsBetting.ag has updated their odds, but the Bears haven’t changed from +1400. This is interesting only because many sportsbooks opened the Bears at +1200. Sportsbetting.ag has the Bears’ odds for the best record in the league at 14/1 (+1400). They are 50/1 (+5000) for the worst record in the league.Anything jump out to you? Any games you’d be willing to put money down on here in May?
