Opinion on this has never changed. Would I rather the Bears play in Chicago or AH? Of course. As long as Caleb/Ben are here though (aka team is good)...they can play anywhere in Chicagoland and that's fine. If their minds change and they stay in IL that's even better! #Bears

I feel like Kevin Warren has been incredibly sloppy with this thing, but to be fair, if he indeed convinced McCaskey to spend the $$$ to hire Ben, everything he did with the stadium is secondary. #Bears
It's interesting...
I remember hearing grumblings about Kevin Warren being hard to work with when he showed the door to many Halas Hall lifers when he came in as President for the Bears.
A Bears team that was riddled in failures and dysfunction, mind you.
Now hearing the same from Illinois politicians. A state that doesn't have the best reputation when it comes to politics as well.
Also heard rumblings from some in the Big Ten that weren't fans of Kevin Warren.
Yet, Kevin Warren got the 8 billion dollar TV deal for the Big Ten as they expanded their conference to the West Coast becoming a super conference.
The Vikings stadium, for all intents and purposes is what all stadiums should strive for from process of paying for it to architecture and structure of thr stadium itself.
The Bears seem to be turning things around since he's arrived. Hard Knocks, Flus fired midseason. Ben Johnson. Playoffs. Etc.
I don't know... maybe just maybe, Kevin Warren is tough to work with because he doesn't operate the way some people want him to. And maybe... just maybe, that's a good thing.
Just a thought.
$500M paycut from the stars who don’t need $60M a year. The league minimum guys and middle class of the MLB will all get massive raises due to the floor the owners agreed to. Why is no media member pointing this out? #MLB
MLBPA interim executive director Bruce Meyer says that the players would actually be taking a $500 million paycut if they accepted MLB's salary cap proposal, and reiterated that they will never agree to a salary cap.
