CM Punk Criticizes Bears Ownership on Christmas Broadcast

CM Punk, a WWE star and Chicago native, expressed deep frustration with the Chicago Bears' ownership during a Christmas Day broadcast on Netflix. He criticized the McCaskey family, who have owned the team since 1983, arguing that no significant change will occur until they sell the team. Punk pointed out the Bears' failure to draft Patrick Mahomes in 2017 as a missed opportunity and highlighted the team's ongoing struggles, including a 4-11 record this season and a 38-year championship drought. The Bears' recent performance under new quarterback Caleb Williams has been disappointing, and they have already been eliminated from playoff contention. Punk's comments have resonated with many Bears fans who share his frustrations with the team's leadership. Despite mixed reactions from co-hosts and viewers, Punk's comments underscore a broader discontent with the team's management.
