Something must have gone wrong up in Arlington Heights, cause the Bears are now talking with the City of Chicago to get Burnham Park and the rest of the Museum Campus.

Nothing is wrong in Arlington.

The Mayor of Chicago sweetened the pot for them to stay. Not sure how, because he doesn't have a pot to piss in.

no taxes or utility bills for 100 years???

City kicking in 30% of construction costs that Arlington would not do.

It will be another boondoggle, just like the mistake of a remodel was done at the hallowed grounds of Soldier Field.

printing money?

Don't know, don't care. I don't live there anymore.

They have some sort of stadium authority, run by the State and controlled by Chicago.

That's where the funding for Sox Park and the boondoggle Bears remodel came from.

The Bears should have built a dome on the grounds of Old Comiskey Park. That would have been a boon and huge revitalization for the South Side. 

I was very pissed at the time.

Well Browns presently but Jimmy Hasbeen supposedly cut a deal for a dome outside the City - as long as he's funding it - IDGaS
