Good for them. That'd be great to replace that ancient stadium.

Too bad they can't put it right on the lake though...

Pussies. It's just a little weather.

maybe they can talk Spanos into renting half

That $1 a year will come in really handy

What is it with people from Chicago that they're so happy to have been born there? I meet so many people who can't wait to tell me they're from Chicago and when I meet them, they're living anywhere but Chicago.

One of my first jobs freshly out of college had me staffed in downtown Chicago. My first day on the project, I walked across the street in a windchilled -7 degrees. I think I understand why they live elsewhere.

Everybody should be so lucky as to have an owner who will build and pay for a stadium like sofi.

Well, after all those years of Madam Georgia, we as Ram fans deserve an owner like Stan.

This times 1 billion - yes I went there - 1 billion

I could never live in Chicago. If you don't drink - it is a boring city that is cold as frick in the winter and hot as crap in the summer. No thank you.

My college roommate moved to Chicago for work and said the longest walk of every day was going 20 feet from his door to the car in the winter.

I went to Navy bootcamp and studied electronics from Jan 1983 to Mar 1984. Two winters in Chicago was enough for me. For a California boy, that were some cold shyte!

And in the cold back then that California Golden Boy had lost his Midas Touch.

Another anecdote from my time in Chicago in the early 90s. I had a girlfriend while I was there, and she made the mistake of driving home thru Cabrini Green (projects) after 11pm one night.

She was lit up by a patrol unit and escorted out. They asked her what the hell she was thinking and that she's lucky they ran into her first.

Yay Chicago!

In LA - I took a friend home at night and he told me that since I was white - I need to run every red light to get out of that part of town

He said if you stop at a red light - you will get a brick thrown thru my window.

Funny, I was one step away from a Navy bootcamp for nuclear physics (submariner prerequisite) in Michigan in the late 80s.

Probably just as cold as Chicago, but definitely not as windy. It's the wind chill that killed me out there. And yes, I'm a California boy too.

Welp, when I was a tour bus driver from 2002-2009, I went to Chicago with groups several times a year, for multiple days each time in the city. We never had problems on the Navy Pier, Magnificent Mile, Hancock bldg, Sears Tower, the museums, Rock and Roll McDonalds, Rainforest Cafe, Wrigley Field, and the various hotels that we stayed in. I had to walk in my bus driver suit, pulling my suitcase to my hotel late at night in sketchy areas (bus parking is sketchy in Chicago).

Never got mugged, Yeah for me?

I was at Great Lakes Naval base, north of Chicago and it was windy as f*ck there. I had to chip ice during service week in bootcamp, but only in 20 minute blocks of time due to the wind chill danger....
