Ditka is an ignorant piece of horsefeathers racist. I mean, sure. I'd prefer, I don't know, Scottie Pippen or something. But it's not random that he's there. Dempster's inclusion is pretty random. Dempster is a former Cub who had a long (and very nice) career here and he's still involved with the organization. He's goofy but there's nothing strange about his involvement.
