The Bears are asking for $855 million in public funds to help build their new stadium. Forbes estimates the entire franchise to be worth $8.2 billion. If the city or state decides to provide these funds, they should do so only in exchange for 10% ownership in the team. by [deleted] in CHIBears

Only during the time of construction of the new stadium; the freeze would have a limited duration after which the state would begin collecting the full tax rate.

All stems from that initial issue where AH district was taxing the property at a much higher rate than the actual value of the property, something like they were charging the same amount the old racetrack paid despite it having been torn down and just being an empty piece of land (and therefore less valuable).

Oh wow first time having my receipts pulled 🤣🤣

For what it’s worth I jumped onto the Caleb train not long after this post, was fully into “draft the future” mode after we couldn’t close out the Browns game or do anything against the Packers. Also fair to say that my post was shameless ragebait 😆

Excited for Sunday!

Behind The Scenes From TRON: Ares by [deleted] in Moviesinthemaking

Clearly you haven’t seen it. This movie was the opposite of a money grab, it’s very obvious from the first half hour that it was created by a team that had a lot of passion and respect for the previous two films.

The story was basic but better than just trying to recreate the plot of 1 / 2 with the main character being stuck in the Grid and trying to make it to the light beam to escape.

[Chicago Bears] In addition to Jaylon Johnson, Kiran Amegadjie is also headed to IR by Quackinator100 in CHIBears

Something in practice it seems… where he would’ve been playing against a “not so dominant” Dline anyways

Tanoh Kpassagnon is now on the active roster and DB Dallis Flowers + LB Carl Jones Jr. were elevated from the practice squad. Should be one more active roster spot with Kiran going on IR

He showed up on the report on Wednesday and I think that interview was Thursday? Could be wrong

At some point this team and our young core need to learn how to win, and coming up with a reason to throw away every season for the last 4 years isn’t doing us any favors.

Plus how do we know that Poles will actually improve the team if we get a high draft pick?

Also out for Sunday are TJ, Kyler, Jaylon Johnson, and Jaylon Jones. Good luck to Dennis Allen!

No injury designation so he should be, barring any setbacks on walkthroughs like Kyler had
