They’re doing it again… :weary_face:

Bears gonna… do something.

Then they’ll DESERVE their new stadium.

But will it be a good stadium, a better stadium, or the BEST stadium?

No idea. Need to define those terms.
Important will be new seat licenses, new suite boxes, etc. for the owner to reap, regardless of the quality of the team.
It will likely suck for the plebes to get there and get back home, unless Arlington Heights is chosen, with its built-in train station. That means lower revenue for the owner, who owns Da Bears and nothing else. Dude needs his money. Dude bought the site already, so, wtf?

Likely to be indoors, negating weather advantage of “tough” Bears players vs pussies from sunny states.

Don’t talk about the SEC like that!!!

AFC East:

What I get from this is that the Jets signed a shitty QB to secure the top draft spot. That is what Jets fans should be rooting for, I guess.

Seahawks sold for almost $10 billion.

So the Niners now literally own the Seahawks?

I think the ownership group needs to divest the Niners stake.

Yes, the NFL requires the divestiture.

Did not realize SB rings were this diamond heavy.

They didn’t go to Jared?!?!?!

Mayfield thinks he deserves respect.
But, mostly money.
