ESPN's Seth Markman tweeted that Ditka will not appear on the network this weekend. However, if Ditka is true to form, he'll be back at work fairly soon; Bears fans may remember that, when Ditka suffered a heart attack while coaching the Bears in 1988, he was back in his office a week later and on the sidelines within two weeks.
