Btw, I grew up in Chicago and my dad had Bears season tickets. This move will NOT go over well with Chicagoans. Or most Americans.

You mean the Chicago people who keep voting for people like Tiny Dancer? I don't think so. Sorry, the Chicagoans you are thinking of moved out years ago. What's left behind in the city seem quite content to have record numbers of young black people shot every week to go along with the traditional corruption.

Even you moved to Canada. I just moved out of the metro area, but still in Illinois. I go back to visit every now and then, but the idea of living there just does not fly.

If I were a NFL player....I’d start to review my resume and plan on being unemployed by spring of 2019. Clubs won’t be able to make payroll if fans won’t show up in the stands and if networks cut the revenue checks by 50-percent. You an do the math with a payroll listing of forty players and $40 million in salary costs.

For the kids in colleges this season and hyped up on their draft chances? You can figure your bonus chances just dropped by fifty percent.

But all of this leads me to the thought...were these NFL clubs really worth one billion in value? I’m starting to think that it’s a screwed up system that ever convinced the public to believe the total NFL franchise system was $32 billion in value.
