The Chicago Bears Just Ramped Up The Pressure On Illinois With Nasty 1-2 Punch

It became apparent that the Chicago Bears might be gaining the attention of Governor J.B. Pritzker and the Illinois state government when he stated he was willing to discuss the idea of infrastructure help for the new stadium project. This was not a concession Pritzker had made public during the previous three years. It was the first sign that the Bears’ decision to entertain the idea of leaving Illinois for a possible new home in Northwest Indiana may have finally raised eyebrows in Springfield.
