There was big news for fans of Bears legend Steve McMichael Wednesday.
The defensive lineman learned he's one of the final three being considered for induction into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
It's been an all-out blitz by family members and former teammates to get the Super Bowl champ honored at the same time as he battles ALS. "He was happy, so thrilled. He just wanted to talk," Misty McMichael said when her husband learned he had made the final 12. "Eight different seasons he had eight sacks or more. I didn't do that. Very few players in the history of the NFL were able to do that," Hampton said.
