VERNON HILLS — The Bears went back to high school Wednesday evening, and for some it was a welcome trip down memory lane.
Visiting with members of the media before practice began at Vernon Hills high school, QB Mitch Trubisky remembered his days back in Mentor, Ohio, as some of the best of his life, and other players relived past glories as well.
But once practice began, reality roared back and the focus shifted to this coming Saturday and the Kansas City Chiefs, the last chance for the big guys like Trubisky, Howard, Robinson, Hicks, Trevathan, Fuller and others to prepare for the opener in Lambeau Field two weeks from Sunday.
