I would have to reevaluate my Bears fandom if they move to Arlington Heights. I'm a Chicagoan who only supports Chicago based professional teams. You can't claim Chicago when you're in the suburbs. You definitely can't claim Chicago when you're closer to Wisconsin than Chicago.

I'm only 20 minutes away from AH. You can tailgate in my driveway.

Actually, I'm not looking forward to the improvements needed to 53 to accommodate this. I'll never get to work.

as do the Rams, Jets, Giants, Chargers, 49ers, Cowboys, and probably a few others I'm forgetting. Lions did so as well before downtown Detroit had a bit of a renaissance

I bet Arlington Heights Archie likes this

my kneejerk reaction is the same as your's Nas, but this administration practically dared them to walk away.

The Blue Demons maintained their chicago cred while playing in Rosemont.

I think it would be a good gesture for the Bears to maintain some kind of physical presence in the city.

Nas is a great Chicagoan.

The Chicago Bears will go away for a bit when the Archies move to Arlington Heights, but the Bears will be back in some form, whether its relocation of an existing team or expansion.

The state and Daley got it wrong 20 years ago. Hopefully, we're able to overcome Lightfoot's arrogance and stupidity. Losing the Bears would really make me sick.

I'm sure their fans got over not playing in the city.

it's the perfect capstone on her 1 term in office though

The city deserves to lose them, inept leaders and soaring crime and taxes. I don't go to football games, thatsca TV sport but most importantly going forward is Vurginia dies and the team is sold.

The truth is, this makes going to games easier for me. I can walk (it's a bit long but I could do it in theory) to jefferson park, hop on the train and be at the front door. Ticket prices will undoubtedly increase but the actual cost of the day to me might go down. Even though it increases my convenience, I still don't like it happening.

George called their bluff...good for him. Nas, let the mayor know how unhappy you are because that's who needs to hear it She had quite the dismissive attitude with her "Maybe they should worry about beating the Packers" statement when this came out. Bears finally acting like a big city team.

Being able to park next to the stadium would be nice

Yet another in a very long line of questionable Nas Bears posts.

The Bears are more likely to fuck this up than be playing in a state of the art facility in 5 years.
