Mongo we're rooting for you! 🏈
I had no idea Steve was even going through this. I saw him in person back in 2010 or 2011, and he was still larger than life. To see him like this when I was thinking he was still completely healthy, is kind of sad but I'm glad he is much closer to getting in the hall. Prayers go out to him and his family.
Love you, Mongo. Great football player and loved him in WCW. He deserves it.
Me too. I loved the Four horsemen with him! Ric Flair still keep in contact with him... 😎👍
Congratulations Mongo!
You are a warrior and finally the NFL has given you the honor you so greatly deserve.
We love you forever!! ❤
Even as a NY Giants fan, how can you not respect this guy...95 sacks as a DT in a run first league in the 80's-90's ?? Come on...My prayers are with his family !!!
Love your post as the GIANTS are my #2 squad through thick n' thin! 🗽🏙️
I met Steve at the old Metrodome in Minneapolis after a Bears-Vikings game. I have been a life long Bears fan, and meeting Steve and several other Bears players that day was one of the best moments of my life! Bears Nation is with you and your family!
Put this man in the Hall of Fame so he can rest peacefully I believe if he gets in he can finally have his closure in life
The only reason he is considered is because of ALS. Mango is not Hof worthy
@@mattwilliam5522this should be interesting. Why isn't he worthy?
@@tonysnow5320 his stats are average to maybe above average. The whole concept of the Hall of Fame has been watered down. He's not an all-time great
@@tonysnow5320 he was on a great team he was a good player on a great team but not Hall of Fame. You can't honestly say that his current condition isn't influencing people to vote for him
@@tonysnow5320 you think of other players before you think of him on that 85 bears defense
Congrats Steve!!!!_!!!!!! Well deserved! Having the son of the Greatest Player Ever induct you shows how knowledgeable you are of the game!
So sad to see McMichael in this condition. He’s been a staple for bears fans since the 80s always around on a tv show, the radio, etc…
But it is a great thing to see he may get into the hof. I hope it happens.
Well said...
Congrats to Steve McMichael's.
Praying for him and his family.
So sad dying of awful disease
Hall of Famer Steve.God bless all your days ✝️🕊️🇺🇸
This is so disrespectful. Why is it important to have closeups like this of a man who is obviously near death?
It is sick. I agree.
Woohoo!!!! Met him 1985 Fan Appreciation Day...one of my top Bears memories! His smile could power Soldier Field! Congrats Mongo and Misty!
This is heartbreaking. God Bless you Mongo and God's speed. Heartfelt love to your family brother.
Mongo deserves it. Praying for you, Steve McMichael! 4 Horsemen for life! Bears forever! GO STEVE GO
Met him at a company function around 2005.
He was bigger than life.
Such great stories.
AMEN ! This brings an old Bears fan to tears of joy !
Bear down!!! You were one of the best Mongo. No one deserves induction into the Hall of Fame more than you. It was an honor to watch you play when I was a kid. The names of Hampton, Singletary, Dent, Perry, Fencik, Wilson and mostly certainly McMichael will forever be etched in my childhood memories. The greatest defense in NFL history. Thank you Mongo.
I saw him in VEGAS at the Riviera, talked to him about buddy Ryan who was my Eagles 🦅 coach, god bless this wonderful man !
As a Packers fan I feel so sad for Mongo going thro the trouble hes in god bless u Mongo an ur fam an friends
RESPECT to you Good Sir😌
I don't understand why families show loved ones in these conditions. Blessings to you Mongo.
I agree. But maybe this is an effort to ensure he gets in the Hall.
He may be similar to Bobby Heenan, who did not want to be hidden away despite his failing condition. When things like this happen to famous people it brings more attention to the disease
Because it’s important for to many families to give that loved one exposure to others for maybe the last time- why hide? Looked like he was happy for the company. And it also answers the question- ‘how’s Steve doing’, when people ask her- doesn’t it?
I had an uncle with a very similar disease lived in my house growing up
Im happy for him
Hope he makes it to 2024. It will take a miracle.
He definitely deserves this get him in
This is heartbreaking. He was so talented, not just in football, but pro wrestling as well. My thoughts and prayers for him and his family.
85 Bears ..... The Best Defense EVER!!!
Steve McMichael was a wonderful player and a big part of the best defense ever.
One of a very very few NFL players through its history that truly defines what a "football player" is all about. Im not a Bears fan, but loved the 85 bears team. Dominant. (Sidenote: Was excited when Flutie came to the Bears in 86, but they never really gave him a chance for some reason...) Go Mongo!!
Way to go Sir we here in Columbia SC love you we Steelers fans give u a ya Hoooooo
I was a huge Mongo fan when he was rasslin. He was just my guy! Love him!
Congrats to Steve McMichael's
Praying for him and his family
😥
RIP Mongo, you were a good football player and a decent WCW commentator
He ain't dead
@@Pedroismrite hate tolks lying
It’s so sad I pray for Steve a great bear and a great man 🙏🏽💙🧡
Please put the man in. He deserves it more than anything
THIS GAVE ME CHILLS 😢😢😢😮
McMichael deserved that HOF long time ago. I think he is well deserving. It's too bad they didn't give him the HOF back then. This way he could have talked and said what he wanted to and be able to enjoy it more. Just give the guy what he so deserves. Sick or not! We love you Mongo. It's very said to see him or any others going through this kind of situation. Minus the HOF.
God bless you Mongo! Get better soon!
God bless Misty & Steve. Congratulations Steve!!
The state Mongos in now is heartbreaking. Poor guy looks like he can't last much longer.
He still with us
@@Pedroism Honestly amazed he made it through 2023. Mongo's one hell of a fighter
Guy was one of the most bad ass dudes who ever lived, it’s fucking heartbreaking seeing him like that
Using that thumbnail is outta pocket 🤦🏿♂️🤦🏿♂️
seriously. wtf
My prayers are with you Steve mongo I hope you get better soon and you do need to be in the football hall of Fame
ABSOLUTE RESPECT for HOFer Steve McMichael & that Buddy Ryan '85 (46 DEFENSE) BEARS 🐻🧸 !
...And This is from a Lifelong 49ERS Faithful...
MN 🥶 sends best to steve,wife family and community ❤️🕊️
That smile was everything.
MONGO, MONGO, MONGO!!! Look at that smile🎉😢 You are SOOO LOVED 😍 ❤❤❤❤
Expedite him into the NFL Hall of Fame immediately by executive order of the NFL commissioner. Time cannot wait for August 2024 .
Right. Why make him suffer another year?
That's months left

He deserves es it! They all do! I remember" the 85 Bears Tram!!" I was a huge fan! I loved Walter payton!!
2024 Congrats Steve McMichael. Texas Longhorns / Chicago Bears. God Bless Him, Amen.
Phuc yea it's official brother you're going in!
Along with Hester and Peppers
Like McMahon said, Mongo has the numbers to be a Hall of Famer!
Thoughts and prayers for family.
He was a legend. It sucks he battling ALS. It happened with Dwight Clark. His legacy in the NFL isn't forgotten. He was a wcw wrestler also.
🙏🏾
Did u all really need to show him in that condition in the vid cap?
Heart breaks with his body breaking down but think they show him in real time because it is a testament to his spirit and heart that Mongo is still Mongo. So his smile is a little lopsided....his soul still shines through! Maybe his struggle will give strength and hope to others afflicted with the damn condition as well.
Stay strong, Mongo. 💙🧡💙
Mongo deserves the HOF! Long overdue!
pro football Hall of Famer need to be alive when they go into the Hall of Fame that should be a must. Please stay alive Mongo until you go into the pro football Hall of Fame, and then you can go joy everything else in football from heaven
Hate seeing this . I hope someday ALS is cured .
Yes...what an insidious disease! SMH. Praying for him.
Steve Mongo McMichael, the only Hall of Fame that he has not gotten yet and I hope that he gets it before his time the WWE Hall of Fame give me a thumbs up if you like my comment
I love you and family
He was a former football player and a wcw wrestler in the 90s.
A true champion god bless Steve Mongo McMichael.
Put this man in!
No one shouldn't have to beg in plead for him to be in the Hall of Fame because if they was going to put him in there he would of been in there a long time ago don't wait until this poor man is on his deaf bed to do that it would be shameful
True, he was a key player on the 85 Bear defense, one of football's greatest defenses ever, that alone should have put him in years ago.
Great player at Freer High School, Texas Longhorns, and Chicago Bears.
He Deserves It 100%
That's cool about time.
Steve mongo McMichael deserves a To be to be a WCW legend for WWE video game
Or
Put him in the Wrestling Code game
I saw a G.
I've seen it all.
Dope describes my rhymes, making all you emcees cold drop like dimes. You know MCSC is back again, and battling me on the microphone is like committing a sin.
Scott/MCSC
King Scott
CLASS OF 2024 PRO FOOTBALL HALL OF FAME.
I wish maybe this year he would be inducted into another Hall of Fame of the WWE for everything he did in WCW and with the four horsemen
YOU MADE IT MONGO!
I was young once too,,,, i remember # 76 ...... now we are becoming too old.
Happy Birthday Mongo!
Mongo ❤
He should already be in the HOF.
Wow...sad to see him like that. He was very big and athletic in his days and now to see him this way breaks my heart. Put him in the Hall of Fame. He deserves it......
he was such a bad ass in WCW wrestling its so sad he looks this bad😭
He was skipped over when the Four Horsemen were inducted in the WWE Hall of Fame, so this is long overdue.
Hey! I know the artist who did that painting.
I feel for the guy. What a horrible way to die. Just like Santo did not get until after his passing, it may well be Mongo will be in the same boat. But maybe not. I think it was worse in a way for Santo because he should have been elected far, far earlier. Shame for both.
Way to go Mongo
Poor guy. I'll go Budd Dwyer well before I end up like that, but to each his own
May god bless him hope he keep on fighting for his life 🙏
He is like bobby heenan now. I didn't know he is like bobby heenan now.
Congratulations Mongo
Damn!!!!!! That’s a real woman. Real wife!!!
He has been inducted today!
Battled some of the greatest football teams of the 80s and battled the NWO.
They can the award to him at home.
i love football, but it's such a brutal sport
Sad to see such a big great Chicago bears great player being taken off the defensive line by a disease 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
