Hurrah while in charge. I guess Warren never wanted the deal. Gonna be interesting to see what the Bears do if they do the lakefront stadium and if they are able to spin off the Arlington Heights land? Previous Message The Bears have shifted stadium plans again, now saying that they want to stay in the city of Chicago, rather than move to the suburbs. The new plan is for a stadium that would get taxpayer funding and public ownership, but that the Bears would contribute $2 billion toward. “The Chicago Bears are proud to contribute over $2 billion to build a stadium and improve open spaces for all families, fans and the general public to enjoy in the City of Chicago,” the team said in a statement. “The future stadium of the Chicago Bears will bring a transformative opportunity to our region—boosting the economy, creating jobs, facilitating mega events and generating millions in tax revenue. We look forward to sharing more information when our plans are finalized.”
