stadium “news” does nothing but piss me off, at this point. i just spent $37 for 4 pounds of ground beef, $70 to fill a 13 gallon tank
if you think i care about a pissing match between millionaires and billionaires over property taxes you are insane.
@carmendefalco@Jurko64@ESPN1000@carmendefalco@Jurko64@ESPN1000 3/3 If both chambers agree by next Friday, it hits Gov. Braun’s desk. He’s already vocal in support. Bill effectively creates legal “bucket” to hold land & funding before deal is signed. Ball is in Bears' court to commit before the 27th! 🐻⬇️
@carmendefalco@Jurko64@ESPN1000 1/3 SB 27 creating the NW Indiana Stadium Authority just cleared House Ways & Means today (2/19). It sets a 35yr lease & 40yr bond power for a Hammond/Wolf Lake site. The Bears officially called it a “significant milestone.” #Bears
@carmendefalco@Jurko64@ESPN1000 2/3 Next steps: It needs 2nd & 3rd readings on the House floor. B/C it was amended today w/ Hammond-specific language, it must go back to Senate for “concurrence” (approval of changes). The hard deadline is Feb 27—the day the session adjourns.
@sheanorling If I didn't know any better I'd think this was a random UCLA at Illinois game on @BigTenNetwork with college interns working the cameras...
@Jurko64@carmendefalco Great chat about @stephenasmith "breaking news" about NFL coaches not liking Ben Johnson. Rivalries are absolutely better with tension between coaches. Remember Jim Harbaugh and Pete Carroll? Rex Ryan and Bill Belicheck? Good stuff.
I'd like to see @CALEBcsw bring the Claw back at some point. @ChicagoBears fans were digging it at and after draft night. I know last season was tough but it'd be sweet to see him and #DaBears nation rocking it in the crowd when he goes GOAT level!
