If terms like touchback and 2-point conversion are lost on you, chances
are you're among the ranks of the so-called 'game day widows' every
Sunday. But with Bears fever hotter than ever, plenty of Chicago women
are lining up to learn more about the game. More than 700 female fans
turned out for a sold-out class called 'Football 101' taught by none
other than a few Chicago Bears players. The unique seminar even offered
pupils a rare chance to go 'behind the scenes' of Soldier Field.
