Chicago Bears stadium

... entendre.

Of course, referencing the offensive alignment of a quarterback under center with a fullback and a running back directly behind him, but in this case it also stands for Bailey's principles on a Bears stadium plan, Illinois infrastructure investment, uh, eight-point plan.

The Bears choose a legitimate Illinois location.

The Bears finance the stadium.

It might.

Look, I think a lot of us are fatigued by this Bears stadium drama.

I've had to cover it.

At the end of the day, I think Chicagoans will get over it.

The new money can still support roads, bridges, and other transportation projects.

but it can also be used for broader infrastructure associated with a Bears stadium in Lake County.

That is a significant shift, though there is nothing inherently wrong with that.

A major development can justify public investment in roads, utilities, and other infrastructure.

A Bears Stadium in Hammond could bring jobs, visitors, and additional private investment.

could bring.

But the McCaskey family isn't exactly arriving in Indiana like the Jodes arriving in California.

And Roosevelt Park is on the southwest side of Grand Rapids, Michigan.

So that means no matter where you are in Michigan or in the Chicago area, you may wind up with the new Bears Stadium.

Absolutely.

To my heart.

When I hear about the new Bears Stadium, particularly the Bears Stadium...

Soldier Field.

I cannot tell you.

A 90-year-old aunt came up to me last night and wanted to talk about the Bears stadium.

I just looked at her and said, Antony's, I love you.

I just can't go there right now.

And, you know, basically it's...

We've gone through, we're going through the Bears stadium saga.

It's kind of interesting to see this one sort of taking off.

You know, Governor Pritzker is sort of offered some measured optimism about just the idea of the White Sox finding a new stadium.

But visualize this, with the Bears likely leaving and now the Sox moving to the South Loop, the city, because remember, the state owns White Sox Park.

The city owns the Bear Stadium.

You're going to have two massive empty stadiums that taxpayers are going to continue to have to subsidize just to keep open with no primary tenant.

It's going to be an absolute disaster.

I want to see it happen actually.

Well, we could ramp up the football podcast just to talk about Bear Stadium news.

We might have to at this

rate.
