Having suffered my favorite team’s relocation, I’ve gained an appreciation for how the Packers are owned publicly and by their locale, instead of by singular, capricious owners. Makes more sense and feels more authentic.

They are going from an aging facility that honestly doesn't look terrible but is in the heart of congested Chicago and not much more can be done with the area to a horribly crime ridden shit hole on the Indiana border. Whatever floats their boat I suppose. Not sure what the "nice" parts of Hammond/Gary Indiana are but there's not a lot of them. I heard it'll be placed on Wolf Lake somewhere which is one of the few areas that doesn't look like a shit hole in the area but is completely surrounded by them. Nice place to dump a body or 20.

It really is an urban hellscape.

This is gonna make tea and cookies in the afternoon with Mamdani hard to pull off.

Plus it would be generic tea and cookies.

Would they still be called the Chicago Bears?

Maybe they'll go for a regal name like "The Gary Bears from Hammond Indiana"! Halas would be spinning in his grave!!!!
