Chicago Bears bought Arlington Heights track only to build in Indiana?
- Thread starter JP4CY
- Start date
They show up and buy merchandise. Plus they have a high national fan base. I don't trust Iowa to use their check books.
According to the Gemini the Packers have better revenue than the Bears.
Makes me think the Bears need a better stadium arrangement!!! They have more debt and lack of revenues from Soldier Field. Crazy for a team of this popularity
The difference essentially comes from Local Revenue—money the team makes outside of the NFL’s shared TV deals.
The Ottumwa Bears has a nice ring to it though.
I'm guessing they'd look to put the team in eastern Iowa. That would likely pull sponsors, fans, money, etc, away from Iowa athletics. So I'm all for it
It’d have to be further east to make it easier for Chicago travelers.
The Muscatine Bears.
You guys saying Northwest Indiana ain't that bad have clearly never been to Northwest Indiana lol
I still think Arlington Heights is the most likely outcome at the end of the day.

Come on we got the Dico Superfund site! We can kick Krause to the curb and use that sweet $37 million committed to the soccer stadium as a solid down payment.
Get another $20 million from local investors and we got ourselves $57 million! Just finance the rest of it and boom Des Moines Bears.
I ran the numbers. It will work. Just go take out a SOFI loan for $950 million at a solid 4% interest rate and its only $4.5 million a month! If you make an extra $500 payment a month you will save $2 million in interest!
Hopefully everyone calls them that. They should be bullied relentlessly.
