BOURBONNAIS – Hall of Fame coach John Madden sought relief from the sun Wednesday by walking underneath a canvas tent by the Bears’ practice field.

Madden, 76, had started his day by watching the Green Bay Packers before boarding his famous cruiser and heading south to Olivet Nazarene University. He peered through the shade as the Bears lined up for full-team drills near the end of practice.

The Bears looked good, Madden said. Then again, almost every NFL team looked good as they took part in routine drills during the first week of training camp.
