Monday, July 29
Third-string quarterback Rusty Lisch asked to be waived Monday night, and the Bears complied. General manager Jerry Vainisi has again expressed no desire to talk about No. 1 draft choice William Perry. "I'm not planning on William Perry playing with the Bears this year," Vainisi said Monday, still upset after thinking he had closed a deal Friday. -
Tuesday, July 30
WXRT-FM (93.1) said it will broadcast seven Cubs games that WGN Radio is unable to carry live over the next 10 weeks because of its commitment to the Bears.

Wednesday, July 31
General manager Jerry Vainisi received a counteroffer from Howard Slusher, safety Todd Bell's agent, asking for $950,000 a year. That would make Bell by far the highest-paid player on the team and one of the highest-paid in the league, regardless of position. Bell played for $77,000 last season. -
Thursday, August 1
The quarterback who led the Bears to their first postseason victory in 21 years knows he might not take a snap in 1985. "The ideal situation for the Bears," Steve Fuller said, "would be for Jim McMahon to stay healthy, play great and lead us into the Super Bowl. If that happens, I probably won't play a down." -
Friday, August 2
All-Pro defensive end Richard Dent ended his holdout and reported to Bears' training camp Friday. The team and Dent's agent, Everett Glenn, have worked out an arrangement that will allow Dent to participate in drills while contract talks continue. -
Saturday, August 3
Quarterback Mike Tomczak impressed the Bears' coaching staff in Saturday's intrasquad game. He completed 10 of 15 passes for 134 yards, including one touchdown, to help lead the offense to a 44-34 victory over the defense. Tomczak needed a big day because he is battling former Illinois quarterback Ken Cruz for the No. 3 spot.
