As a Chicago Bears fan, I am thrilled to hear the recent news that the team is expected to name Kevin Warren as their new president and CEO, replacing the outgoing Ted Phillips. Warren, who is currently the commissioner of the Big Ten, has reportedly decided to take on a new challenge and join the Bears organization.

This is exciting news for several reasons. For one, Warren brings a wealth of experience to the table. He's been the commissioner of the Big Ten for three years, overseeing the conference's athletic programs and working to make it one of the most successful and respected in the country. He's also a former NFL executive, having worked as the Vice President of Business Ventures and League Affairs for the Minnesota Vikings.

But perhaps even more importantly, Warren is a lifelong Bears fan. He grew up in Chicago, and has always been a big supporter of the team. He's even said in interviews that his dream job was to one day lead the organization. So, it's clear that he is fully invested in the team and will have the best interest of the team and its fans at heart.

With Warren at the helm, the Bears have the opportunity to take their organization to the next level. He brings a fresh perspective and a proven track record of success. He has the experience and know-how to help the team navigate the ever-changing landscape of professional sports, and to make sure that the Bears are always in the best position to win.

I have high hopes that Warren will help the team to achieve the success that we all crave. He's a smart, experienced leader who will bring a new energy to the organization. I am confident that he will be able to navigate the challenges that come with leading a major sports team and help the bears reach the top of the NFL. With the Bears making the right moves and the right hires, I believe that the team will be able to achieve their ultimate goal: to bring a Super Bowl title to the city of Chicago.

UPDATE:  The Bears have made it official. Welcome to the team Mr. Warren.
