The Chicago Bears — a franchise with 105 years of history in the city of Chicago — may be packing up and moving to Hammond, Indiana because the Illinois state legislature couldn't pass a property tax bill. Sal breaks down the full, glorious, historic collapse of this situation and he is not holding back. How does a franchise that already OWNS 326 acres in Arlington Heights end up in a different state? Sal walks through every step of Springfield's stunning failure to show up Indiana passed their stadium bill 24-0 in February. Governor Braun signed it before the month was out. Illinois canceled a hearing and checked their phones The Bears are still paying off the 2003 Soldier Field renovation — over half a billion dollars — on a building they can't wait to leave The Packers angle: while Chicago spends six years arguing about ZIP codes, Green Bay is quietly building something real around Jordan Love — and nobody is moving a community-owned team anywhere Subscribe, leave a five-star review, and tell a Bears fan Big Sal said good luck finding the place on a map. #PackNation #GreenBayPackers #ChicagoBears #NFLNews #LetMeTellYouSomething #BigSal #Packernet This episode is brought to you by PrizePicks!
