The Patriots paid for their own stadium TWICE. Boston is the ONLY city in which all stadiums are privately owned and operated. If THEY can do it, CHICAGO can do it.
Nope Giants, Warriors and 49ers all paid for their own buildings without tax payer money.City made some land improvements and Santa Clara gave the 49ers the land wich they pay rent on, but they didn’t get any free money.
@@scotttildwrong the city of Santa Clara contributed 300 million and fronted the entire cost. The 9ers are paying back 1 billion of the 1.3 billion in annual payments. The Giants got around 21 million in site cleanup contributions from the city.
Enjoy Nashville, White Sox. The Sox had their chance to build a new stadium in the South Loop originally but Reisndorf wanted 100% state funding. Take out a loan like any other business, then once he / the club have skin in the game, then IL can toss in $500-700M. But if it comes down to one or the other, the Bears will always come first.
Chicago owes more on the last Soldier Field renovation than we started off owing. We owe $640 million of the $432 million committed. The entire reno was $632 million. We can't afford another deal like this. Let them leave.
When the Tigers and Lions built new stadiums in Detroit they did a joint funding plan with the state of Michigan. This was in the 2002 timeframe and both stadiums were built with a budget in in consideration. Neither one is extravagant but are good functional stadiums.
That's kinda similar to what the Steelers and Pirates did, although Allegheny County had to foot the rest of us and having to raise the sales tax as well.
I think they can build 2 stadiums in the 78 site along with a Fan village with different bars and a few Skyscrapers like they have in the picture. The Whitesox can build their stadium along the River like they have in the Renderings and the Bears can build the same stadium they have in their renderings in the South East corner of Area 78 the stadiums don't necessarily have to be right next to each other as they are in Detroit and 400 acres are more than enough to fit all of that into that space
They both should worry about fighting for championships. Fist one to win one can get a stadium. There are no stadiums for either Between football and baseball, they should choose football, baseball is in decline I’ve got a great idea. Why don’t they do a multipurpose field?

I do not think that any sports stadium for a privately-owned team should be tax-funded. These owners have deep enough pockets to build several stadiums with their own money if they wished, but they are too greedy to do so.
Chicago doesn't need 2 baseball teams. Especially with Illinois population loss. Boston Philadelphia St Louis and now the California bay area all once had 2 baseball teams too. US demographics are changing. The US is moving West and South
@@davidlafleche1142 maybe but this can’t be a cookie cutter has to be modern one with see through retractable roof but also looks like a baseball stadium
@@keith96969 A see-through roof doesn't work in baseball. They already tried that in the Astrodome and it was a disaster. The roof panels were translucent: they allowed light in to keep real grass. The problem was that the glare from the sun made it impossible to see a fly ball. So they painted over the panels to cut the glare, but the grass died. That led to the introduction of Astroturf. A see-through roof works better in football, because receivers don't always have to look straight up, as baseball players do. Also, football season is mostly in the Fall, when the weather tends to be gray and cloudy, so glare is usually not a problem. Finally, the seating angles are all wrong. You can't cram a huge baseball field into a smaller football surface. (Baseball requires roughly two and a half times more area than football.) It didn't work when they tried baseball at L.A. Coliseum, the Dolphins stadium or Exhibition Stadium. Football doesn't work in a baseball stadium, either. Metropolitan Stadium, County Stadium and Anaheim Stadium were lousy places to watch football. The only places where both sports worked well were Tiger Stadium, Fenway Park and Mile High Stadium.
As a 60 Yr resident of IL this is all about politics. The Bears Stadium will get built in Arlington Heights. They already own the land. They lease Soldier Field. It’s just a matter of who gets greased. The Sox are another situation. Taxpayers are still paying for GRate field. They are not going to build a new one. Shared stadium is not what the Bears want.
I was gonna ask why the Bears & White Sox can't -- or don't want -- to get any private financing for building their own new stadiums in Chicago. But apparently, I'm not the only one asking that question.
With the white Sox owner. Also, owning the chicago Bulls. I feel the owner ship group will attempt to keep them in chicago. The bears and Sox could look at building two stadiums in Arlington Heights.
Aren't the Bears going to the Chicago suburb of Arlington Heights? There would be nothing wrong with that. This way ,the city can focus on the White Sox new ballpark.
So...the Bears dont care about having their own revenue stream? If they accept public funding, they won't own the stadium and wont keep the revenue. Also if they stay along the lakefront, they are not allowed to complain when they realize it's a mistake to not build in AH
Sell the teams! The fans you have abused all these years don't deserve financing your new stadiums! If you can't pay for your own stadium, sell the teams!
Lately dual-purpose stadiums, if done, have been for football & soccer. Football & baseball have never been good fits due to the field dimensions being totally different.
Let's compromise: if the Bears and Sox want public money to build stadiums then it should come with a clause that requires ticket prices to be limited to no more than the bottom 25th percentile of per-league pricing. If you want money from the public then they should be able to afford to go to the games in the stadium their tax dollars are funding.
The teams need to locate to an area that is safe to use public transportation. I have had season tickets since 1982. I had alway use the public lines and every home game, there were the same regulars heading to the game. There are now none even though we still see all of them at the games. It is having to drive or take an uber to stay safe
My guess is this is exactly what the Sox expected. They are gone bc they have a viable option (Nashville). The Bears need a sub-urb to step up. Where do the season ticket holders live?
We all know it’s the cub fans saying Sox should just move. They ain’t going nowhere they been here since the early 1900s it’s a legendary team in the third biggest market in the USA. They will get a new stadium one way or another here in Chicago
This could be interesting. Look at Cleveland 30 years ago. The Indians (Guardians) and Cavaliers both got public money for new stadiums. The Browns were the odd team out and wound up moving to Baltimore for a new stadium and became the Ravens.
That's quite a story unfolding! When sports teams vie for new stadium funds, it's not just a game of numbers, but also a testament to their commitment to providing the best for their fans and communities. It's fascinating to see how these endeavors can spark excitement and bring people together, rallying support and showcasing the spirit of teamwork not only on the field but off it as well. Here's hoping that the outcome benefits not just the teams but their supporters and the community at large. It's a powerful reminder of the impact sports have in uniting and inspiring us all. Go teams!
Why not do the vtb stadium/Arena type plan. And Calgarynext try to for the flames and Stampeders sharing to save land. So why not bear and white Sox there. She has the same land for 2 venues for 2 different events. Remember moscow did it. So why not Chicago here. So why try it out here.
Chicago is also cutting their budget to house and feed the flow from the Southern Border. Don't think the tax payers are in any mood to fund a stadium or two. Really bad timing. My guess they will help the Bears because the NFL is huge. Let the Sox walk to Nashville.
@@Whitesox_joeyChicago is not a 2 team a sport market anymore. Plus the Cubs are the older and number 1 MLB team in Chicago. And by that logic, the A's need to move back to Philadelphia.
@@geebee6010 I'll concede it's like 70% (Cubs) to 30% (Sox) market share split of fans in Chicago however that 30% for White Sox is still greater than any possible city they could move to. MLB won't allow a team to move after 120 years in one city.
The issue for me is that if the Sox want a district they just need to develop the parking lots. There are huge seas of asphalt around GRF. Develop those.
I know it's a chance this doesn't happen but maybe Bears and white socks can build a multi purpose stadium that would configuate white socks baseball and bears football like Oakland coliseum. It would be kinda cool to see another multi purpose stadium again
@@commonsense3921 So what. Let them go. Screw these owners. Screw these teams. If enough cities stop being manipulated these owners will start building their own stadiums.

@@neneshubbyUS Sports fans need to realize that US sports leagues now have global ambitions. And a sports league can't endlessly expand and expand. We may eventually see the Tokyo White Sox, Seoul Brewers, Dominican Padres (who will build stadiums of gold to get a MLB team)
I don’t agree that the Cubs being more popular plays a factor in whether the Sox get public funding for a new stadium. The Mets got Citi Field at the same time the Yankees got the new Yankee Stadium.
@@tmac29nycthe think about this is New York is just way bigger then Chicago, so it can easily support two teams. Chicago has lost over a million citizens in the past decades. And it doesn’t appear to me as an outsider. That the white Sox really are all that important in chicago
I grew up in palatine and I think the bears moving to Arlington heights would be a huge disaster. The bears need to be based close to the city and not in the burbs!!
Chicago should get the Bears and White Sox to cooperate, also try to get other leagues to put 2nd teams in Chicago and apply a bid for the 2040 Summer Olympics as part of the deal so it isn't all for nothing
White Sox to Indianapolis - Indianapolis would greatly benefit of having the White Sox and they would rebrand them as the Indianapolis Arrows Bears to San Francisco - with 49ers playing 55 miles away in Santa Clara San Francisco would definitely benefit of having a team again. With the Athletics moving to Las Vegas and the 49ers having stadium issues with Levi’s potentially relocating to Salt Lake City if they can’t get a new stadium in San Francisco the Bay Area would be without an NFL Team, and that’s when the Bears come in to fill that void immediately, and would have the Bay all to themselves. With the Athletics gone the coliseum would get demolished and the team would play in Levi’s Stadium until a new stadium is built around San Mateo while that’s happening the Las Vegas Raiders will rebrand as the Las Vegas Scorpions leaving the Raiders brand for the taking that’s when the San Francisco Bears will rebrand as the San Francisco Raiders.
If Chicago doesn’t want to lose it’s teams then the teams need to work together and find a solution for the stadium problem so that they can keep their teams.
Chicago is also losing population which is a factor to their teams possibly relocating Illinois is a broke state at moment if they want to turn things around then the state needs new leadership so that the Windy City can recover and keep it’s teams.
No they are not, you’re not moving out of the number 2 TV market behind NY. White Sox’s have the second best TV deal behind the Yankees’. Sox’s issue is management and ownership not revenue. Bears issue is they just can’t figure it out.
@@scotttildIllinois is losing population fast. Chicago is ruled by the Cubs in popularity and in pop culture. Ferries Beuler chose Wrigley over Kominski.

I’ll say this to both teams, “if you threaten to move the teams, go ahead and do it. I won’t lose any sleep over it.”

With the Athletics gone the coliseum would get demolished and the team would play in Levi’s Stadium until a new stadium is built around San Mateo while that’s happening the Las Vegas Raiders will rebrand as the Las Vegas Scorpions leaving the Raiders brand for the taking that’s when the San Francisco Bears will rebrand as the San Francisco Raiders.
Bullshit
You are a right winger
Terrible take
If Chicago doesn’t want to lose it’s teams then the teams need to work together and find a solution for the stadium problem so that they can keep their teams.
Chicago is also losing population which is a factor to their teams possibly relocating Illinois is a broke state at moment if they want to turn things around then the state needs new leadership so that the Windy City can recover and keep it’s teams.
white Sox moving to Nashville
Bears move to salt lake City
No they are not
@@johnmarshall4399unless the city gave them money for 2 stadium then the 2 will leave for good
No they are not, you’re not moving out of the number 2 TV market behind NY. White Sox’s have the second best TV deal behind the Yankees’. Sox’s issue is management and ownership not revenue. Bears issue is they just can’t figure it out.
@@scotttildthey're not the number 2 TV Market LA is.
@@scotttildIllinois is losing population fast. Chicago is ruled by the Cubs in popularity and in pop culture. Ferries Beuler chose Wrigley over Kominski. Boston Philadelphia and St Louis all had 2 teams once too. Demographics change. And sports league can't endlessly expand and expand teams. White Sox HAVE to move eventually. US demographics are moving West and South
Of course give it to the Bears it’s time to move out of Solider Field
