The Bears potential to move to Indiana?

[Coogiguy03]

Indiana Bears?? Lol

 

[Coogiguy03]

Mods can I ask why this was moved, I'm not mad or anything, are we allowed to post about other teams in the main forum?

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

I don't like it, but I get it. I would have liked to see them in Arlington Heights.

They would still be called Chicago, Hammond is a suburb.

Yes.

When a team crosses state lines it should be forced to adopt that states name . If Illinois can’t keep the Chicago Bears close the books on that NFL chapter use Indiana in the name . “Indiana Warrior” have a fan contest on team colors etc . Both the Jets & Giants train in New Jersey as well .

 

[John813]

Would be no different than the NY Jets/Giants playing in Jersey and Washington Commanders in Maryland

That being said, a lot of history in their current stadium/location. Would be nice for them to stay within state lines

Maryland fill in the blank . Although the Commanders are said to be headed back to DC to old RFK stadium . Jets Giants should certainly be the New Jersey whatever’s , losers would fit .

It's sad but the city of Chicago deserves this. Maybe it will wake them up but it probably won't.

It's in Indiana and 30 miles away. Spin all you want but the Bears potentially leaving Chicago is not good.

Sure. I am sure the Chicago Bear fan base loves the idea of shuttering Solider Field and going to Indiana.

 

[RonWashington]

Not to mention taxes, sales revenue go to Indiana not Illinois . Indiana not doing this for nothing in return .

Exactly. Chicago is a proud town. This is a disaster.
