Now We Know Why Chicago Bears Are Sneaking Stadium News Before Draft

Something weird happened this week. Right as the NFL draft was set to take place, the Chicago Bears issued a press release announcing that they would unveil their plans for a new lakefront stadium on Wednesday, April 24th. People were confused. Why do this 24 hours before the draft? One would think they’d wait until after when they would have the media’s full attention. Some speculated this was a deliberate attempt to avoid too much attention, perhaps because the organization knew it would receive backlash.
