  1. Total waste of Indiana’s time & resources. Bears will end up on their Arlington Heights property which they have a huge investment in. As usual, politicians in IL look like fools and just being played by the Bears.

  2. I hear you, but I struggle to see where bankrupt Chicago and Illinois are going to come up with the financial means to support the project. Unfortunately they can’t print money. This needs to play out.

    1. How does Huston say that with a straight face? Did he already forget about the new 1% food and beverage tax on Lake and Porter counties on everyone not just those using the proposed stadium? It’s his bill.

  3. Indians legislators bring played. Bears never intended to leave and needed a lackey to allow them to structure a better deal for themselves. Looks like mission accomplished

    1. So what? The legislators know they are being “played.” Also no time or resources were wasted. Have none of you ever applied and interviewed for a job that you’re pretty certain you weren’t going to get? You still take the time to do it though because you never know!

  4. The key word is politics. They have the time to waste because that’s their job. Sitting in meetings and spending our money on things THEY care about! And nothing we say is going to change that.
