CHICAGO - For a few hours on the field on Saturday, there was little in the "Positive Vibes" department.
In what is supposed to be a dry run of game day the Bears has a few hiccups during their annual Family Fest at Soldier Field - an exhibition of sorts in between the heart of training camp and their preseason opener on Thursday.
But first their was a major fight - one of many during this camp - and then theknee injury to center Hroniss Grasu whose season is now in danger of being lost.
Yet the team still managed to generate some positive and productive vibes towards a teammate's wife as she got ready to show off her skills on the national stage.
The Bears all put on T-Shirts in support of Corey Cogdell-Unrein-the wife of Bears defensive tackle Mitch Unrein. She was competing sunder in the Trapshooting Competition in the Olympics in Brazil.
The entire team-including the normally reserved head coach John Fox-even took a moment during the scrimmage day to pose for a team picture in the locker room with the "Team Unrein" shirts.
Cogdell-Unrein was impressed with the support and just before she headed out to the range sent out a thanks to her husband and teammates.
Perhaps the inspiration helped because on Sunday Cogdell-Unrein came home with the Bronze medal-her second in her Olympic games career.
Unfortunately for Mitch a trip to Rio was not possible since he's in the middle of training camp and the Bears' first preseason game is at home Thursday at Soldier Field.
