The Hammond site is ready right now for the Bears to start building a stadium, mayor Thomas McDermott told @mullyhaugh.
"They know the land is clean, we know the land is clean," he says. "They've verified it, which is what they've been doing through the due diligence period."
@WindyCityCritic Where has the Hammond mayor said that? lol everything I’ve seen from him has been nothing but positive. Even dispelled the toxic wasteland narrative people are trying to push. Not surprise everyone else is trying to get hit pieces about Warren though.
@WindyCityCritic lol so we’re just believing Brandon Johnson? The guy that everyone hates but suddenly he’s telling the truth here? Also, it was said that the Bears had meetings with the city, but it a building a stadium it was about getting out of the lease for soldier field
@TomFornelli Why would he be fired? I’m sure dealing with the IL politicians isn’t a walk in the park. Also it wasn’t him who headed up buying AP without all the tax certainty’s etc… if he was hired before then I don’t think he would’ve went through with it, especially at a huge overpay
@hawkshockey27@GBraggsJr23 I’m pretty sure the only people pissed off at him are the Illinois politicians, lol and the weird fans that for some reason believe them
