The McCaskey family member in question isn't the usual suspect.
It's not lisping, limp-wristed Michael, who's been given a telephoto zoom lens and sent down the sideline to take pictures.
It isn't "King" George, who despite his impassioned impersonation of a die-hard Bear fan is rumored to be another preening polo player who views his assignment to the Bears' front office as appealing as the proverbial fly in the cup of tea next to his morning crumpet.
No, the McCaskey in question is none other than "the matriarch," senile ol' Virginia McCaskey. Ginny probably means well in wanting to restore the Bears to glory, but she's raised effeminate sons who don't have the guts to stand up to a feeble old woman whose outdated vision of the franchise is misshaping the modern-day Bears. Bloated, bygone Ernie Accorsi was an old-school NFL insider who was well-familiar to the old-money McCaskey family. The fact that he appears to have dictated policy beyond his assigned duties to recommend potential General Managers shows not only that the Bears continue to misunderstand the heirarchy within a front office that must be respected in order to ensure success, but also exposes who's calling the shots at Halas Hall.
