I wholeheartedly disagree with your position here. Even with all of your great programming changes, you've maybe incrhome games per year.eased a few extra events a year for the Chicagoland region?

Nowhere did I say that I would be for any public subsidy. I would not support any public money for any stadium, Chicago or Arlington Hts. My point is the opposite: Chicago should not panic over the departure of 10 NFL games. And Chicago will still benefit from Major events like a Super Bowl in Arlington Hts.
ZERO PUBLIC SUBSIDIES FOR PROFESSIONAL SPORTS TEAMS!
