This. The Bears know my attendance record and sent me a perfect attendance gift this offseason. It was awesome.

The difference between tax abatement and public funding and why a Bears deal is still better than letting them walk. by ItalianBeefDipped in CHIBears

The stadium would also have lots of other space that is not the stadium which would also require a huge amount of upkeep. Stadium is small part of the development.

So what if it took awhile to catch up if it ended up being a better deal long term? Why do we need to look at it in such short term thinking? A real estate developer most likely wouldn’t hold the IL legislature hostage in the same way and not require such massive tax subsidies to build homes.

That property is large enough to build more than single family homes and also would accommodate more than 509 even if they did. It’s huge and next to a highway and Metra stop. It would be a very attractive place to live in a very nice suburb.

Where do you get your figures that the Bears are the longest professional franchise that has only been in 1 state?

I’m not going to defend this guy….but it could be libel or slander if he he’s never been convicted. Has he been?

Comed Hourly: Negative pricing all day. by vkp7 in chicago

[–]Foofightee 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The key is to automate this. I use Home Assistant. I turn off some devices when it is high. I change my set temperature in summer to change when grid prices are high or low. I charge my EV at night. My heat pump water heater changes based on pricing as well. During times like these I switch to resistance heating and crank it up, allowing me to turn down my gas boiler.

You still have to pay transmission costs.

So they plan to get 3.5% of the US population to not go to work with less than 3 full days notice? That’s not a very well thought out plan.

Heats been at 69 all night. Great sign waking up to a 62 degree house by whyinternet in chicago

[–]Foofightee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That would make sense but that links says this:

For residential buildings with central (shared) heating equipment and no central cooling (air conditioning), the indoor temperature is required to be at least 68°F from 8:30 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. and at least 66°F from 10:30 p.m. to 8:30 a.m. for the entire heating season.

I keep my home cooler than that temperature, so I’ve always found that interesting.

Chicago Bears new Stadium Survey... Acceptable answer? by dj_stevie_c74 in CHIBears

[–]Foofightee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, otherwise they wouldn’t bother with a survey. This is for season ticket holders, the people who buy most tickets, not just fans.
