If the Bears build themselves a stadium rather than extorting the city to do it for them, then I am all in favor of such a move. Professional sports teams should never be allowed to force cities to build their facilities for them.

"The Bears are locked into their Soldier Field lease until 2033. If they bail before then, the team will be on the hook to the Park District for $5 million a year for the remainder of the agreement."

Shit happens when you don’t draft Mahomes.

Soldier Field is a dump... it seems to be in a nice area, but the actual stadium is terrible (the renovations they did about 20 years ago were an epic fail).

Don't care.
Locals might care, but watching on TV, all football fields pretty much look the same and they aren't "part of the game." It's not like baseball with distinctive stadiums/fields like Fenway and Wrigley (which are both kind of dumps). |

The Bears have sucked balls non-stop since 1986.

I was at the Bears last home game at the original Soldier Field.
Playoff game CHI vs PHI...Hugh Douglas suplexed Jim Miller on his ass and was taken out of the game, Bears lost. Crains and construction workers were all ready to go...once game was over they immediately started renovations once people cleared out of the stadium. |

Ain't happening. It would be like the Chiefs moving to The Legends sans the iconic lake location, current public transportation option, and actual shit to do near the stadium.

If any team could surely use a stadium with a roof it's Chicago.

Chicago is a top 5 major American city and the Bears franchise is iconic. They absolutely deserve a shiny new billion dollar stadium.
