If they’re smart, they’ll leave Illinois. Move just across the line to Wisconsin or Indiana. Put the team midway between Chicago and Milwaukee and watch the Packers explode. That would be fun. Indiana would be closer, there’s nothing in Gary or East Chicago that can’t be torn down, and the tax climate would be vastly better.

Would it really make a difference? I’ve flown through O’Hare enough times to know all about arriving in the Wisconsin terminal with 15 minutes to get to the Indiana terminal, so it’s all the same to me.

Milwaukee used to have a great used bookstore at the airport.

I’m a lifelong Bears fan, but Wisconsin or Indiana can have them if it’s going to take tax money to build a new stadium. We get taxed enough…

At the very least, they need to move out of Cook county.
