    So all bears want is billion dollars from the state? Is that all Lou? we already have enough issues with property taxes but let’s keep raising taxes so we can build a stadium. This is all a ploy so the schools in Arlington would work with the bears. No way would this stadium ever be built on lake front.

    The shame in all of this is after the last remodel, Soldier Field was removed from the National Register Of Historical Places. So it’s lost its safety net to assure it can’t be demolished. If it is demolished to make room for a new stadium I’ll make sure to not set foot on the property. I cannot support that. I’ll stick to Green Bay and Detroit as a road games to see my Vikings play, and remove Chicago from the list.

    The lakefront is a lousy place for a new stadium. Just look at the nightmare of traffic trying to get out of Soldier Field. And how about putting the tax increase measure on a ballot; let us voters decide if we want to dish out another billion (or more). Let the Bears move to Nebraska. I'm sick of financing stadiums for millionaires.

      Why would you try to drive there? Sell season parking passes with season tickets for tailgating but train and bus are the way to get in/out. On second thought why would anyone go because " if you're white your a racist" is the offical position of the bears - F**k them go play in a empty lot on the southside
