Any Bear's fans have an opinion on this?

It doesn't feel like the Giants/Jets playing in NJ to me.

Kind of reminds me of when Rocket Ismail played for Notre Dame
Invincibility with no vulnerability

  - Everyone knows that Arlington is the 1st choice, including Indiana. They're making their pitch. - ELP - 11:30pm 6/5/26
    - I believe Hammond is closer to Soldier Field than Arlington (w quite a different tax burden). [NT] - BaronVonZemo - 2:17am 6/6/26
      - But it isn't closer to the Bear fan base - D2 - 2:06am 6/8/26

        I like "Gare Bears" , but only if they were going to move to Gary. [NT] - ELP - 2:30pm 6/7/26

      - Who are the chumps? The big investment banks, the state with a surplus? Bears fans in a safer area? [NT] - whatsamataU - 12:26pm 6/8/26
      - No matter where they go, the McCaskey's will be rich and get even richer. - ELP - 11:47pm 6/5/26
        
        Seems like the unpopular McCaskeys are a nice way to avoid the city's role. - BaronVonZemo - 2:19am 6/6/26
