Gar is not good at his job, neither is Pax. Says Chicago fans need to be patient. Has been the GM since 99 & hasn’t sniffed the finals. Can’t sell team to free agents & can’t negotiate anything but cash considerations, get out so we can start over! #FireGarPax@chicagobulls
Wow!
Chicago had every opportunity to figure this out. The state had every opportunity to find a compromise. Instead, we got delays, finger pointing, posturing, and no real solution.
As a lifelong Bears fan and former player, I hate the idea of the Chicago Bears not playing in Chicago. That part stings. The Bears are part of the fabric of this city. But from a business standpoint, it just makes sense.
The NFL is a business. The Bears are a business. And at some point, ownership is going to do what gives the franchise the best chance to build a modern stadium, control revenue, create a year-round entertainment district, and stop waiting on politicians who can’t get out of their own way.
This is not just a Bears decision. This is a Chicago and Illinois failure.
You can criticize the McCaskeys. You can criticize Kevin Warren and the process. But if another city or state is willing to make it easier to build, easier to operate, and easier to grow the value of the franchise, then eventually the business is going to go where it is wanted.
That is the part Chicago politicians didn’t seem to understand.
You don’t keep iconic businesses, franchises, or institutions by assuming they have nowhere else to go.
Eventually, they do. #DaBears #Bears #ChicagoBears

"The biggest problem is Mike leaving (Arturas) Karnisovas and (Marc) Eversley in power. It goes to one person. This is on Mike Reinsdorf."
Idc about where your fandom stands.
I was trying give you and everyone else the benefit of the doubt. About knowing business and being smart about it. But I guess not. Foolish of me!
Also words matter Skip Bayless.
