People from "the region", in other words the Indiana suburbs of Chicago, identify more with Chicago than with the bulk of farm-belt deep red state Indiana. Not saying it's good or bad, just that it is the way it is.
Drive from Chicago is similar to drive from Boston to Foxboro. So follow the regional naming style of the New England Patriots.
Soldier Field Renovation Timeline - Illinois Sports Facilities Authority (ISFA)
It totally is. They want a multi-use campus so they can make money outside of what is sharable through the NFL's profit-sharing model. They're not going to be able to do that where Soldier Field is. Kraft was sort of an innovator there and the Rams owner took that to the next level.
They were morons a long time ago.
Their favorite Son too.
Jersey always acts like it's on par with the other families, but they are glorified crew
I agree but if Illinois is going to implement a millionaires tax I wonder if the team wants to stay more competitive in FA (less tax for players) by moving 25 minutes outside Chicago. It is a thought I had not considered. I assumed it was a fake negotiating move like Hartford was, but maybe not. There are a lot of reasons to move over the line into Indiana. The drive to Hartford would have changed the fan base demographic, I am not sure 25 minutes outside Chicago does that.
The Gary Bears?
