I’ve sat in college game at -25 below zero. Had to use my finger to break a hole through the frozen beer between sips. Been to many snow covered game in college at Steelers in ’Burgh. Nature is part of the game, and love seeing teams adapt to rain, snow, …
Lori Lightfoot is a terrible & absolute incompetent mayor & wants to spend my tax money for an even more absurd change to a stadium for a private business, that’s worth at least $4 billion! I sure hope the people of Arlington heights aren’t stupid enough to let the crooked McCaskeys get away with making Arlington Heights pay for part of a stadium there. Let the Bears move to Arlington Park, I certainly won’t miss the traffic disaster they cause when there’s a game. I got stuck in it once & it took a half hour to go a couple of blocks! That fool thinks the people in the city actually care if a terrible football team with truly rotten owners will play in the burbs 8-10 times a year, instead of in the city. So what if the networks don’t have blimp shots of the city & the lake, we don’t care! We care about our obscenely high taxes!
The safest thing to do with anything that Lightfoot thinks of is to ignore it. If she just did the opposite of whatever first occurs to her, she would be right more often
Chicago football is to be played in the snow. This is OUR Chicago football. If you do not like it, then go to Miami or someplace in Texas and play wimpball.
Really. The Vikings have had some sort of dome for about 40+ years and I miss watching those games in the snow. Football, both variations, world and armoured, should be played on real grass and domes and turf suck all the fun out of it

They’re giving up one heck of a home-field advantage.

Nobody in sports cares about tradition. It’s $$$$$.

Smallest stadium? A dome will make it bigger? I guess technically it would.

The smartest thing for the Bears is to get out of Chicago and away from the insane policies of Lightfoot.

Maybe Lightfoot should bring the homicide rate down into double figures before she meddles in sports stadia
