At least we’d know that money would never be an issue. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dll2000 Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 It would be cool for me personally if Bears moved to Arlington. Like a 30 minute drive or 20 minute train ride. I would actually go to some games. Especially if they made some cool new state of art facility. I am probably never going to Soldier Field again unless dragged. Rather watch on TV any day. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dll2000 Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 Everyone is talking about going to Vegas. That place is going to be 80% Bears fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about a follow up: "RE: Bears renovation- nothing new. Scoreboards from 2015." WOW how difficult "How was he supposed to know?" Well I don't know. Maybe a senior NFL writer would KNOW details about NFL happenings Edited May 29, 2021 by beardown3231 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soulman Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 Or maybe you learn that it was a much ado about nothing in a forum like this one and you have your answer. The idea that the media must be all knowing and inform us in exactly the way you expect is pretty ludicrous isn't it? Never mind. Don't answer that. Of course it's ludicrous to 99.9% of us so feel free to be an exception. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beardown3231 Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 I think when you tweet that the league is approving stadium renovations for 2 teams, specifically 2 large market teams including one where 75% fans hate the current stadium+ rumors have been swirling about a move in the next 10-15 years, you should have the facts right away. Don't come back in a few hours and clarify that you were referring to renovations that happened 6 years back. I guess when the big guns didn't say anything we should've assumed off of the bat that Breer was tweeting nonsense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CBears019 Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 Let’s not make this personal. A guy tweeted out something that lacked some context. Not the end of the world, let’s all move on. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't every single post by every single one of us "what we think?" Sorry I expect more from a senior NFL analyst. I'll be sure to get your permission next time on forming opinions. Truly I don't get why you are on a message board. Anyone who disagrees with you is immediately called out and it gets to the point where it aggravates you. I remember when I said I'd hope Jalen Reagor would be better than Curtis Samuel if the Bears used a high pick on him. That pissed you right off. I don't know what you thought would happen when you joined a message board, but this ain't it. Edited May 30, 2021 by beardown3231 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No reason to go overboard on such stuff. And frankly, the fact that you did so confuses me even more. So--huh? What the what? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You and I have disagreed over several things and dll2000 and I are pretty much on opposite sides of when Fields should start yet both of you among others are two of the best members we have. This place would be pretty boring if someone posted an opinion in the opening thread/post and all the next 27 respondents did was post.....YUP. But even a personal opinion ought to be backed by at least some logic and/or facts to justify that position. The kid responded to a few of my previous posts so I thought I'd risk it and take him off ignore. Obviously that was a wrong decision so back on ignore he goes. Gotta keep the peace I guess and besides I despise whining. Edited May 30, 2021 by soulman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
