Let the Bears get over their Soap Opera, finalize their location - THEN we can have a serious conversation about whether or not it even makes sense to spend precious transit dollars on upgrading/building expensive transit for something that only serves a handful of football games throughout the year.....

With the World Cup, cities saw that transit was pretty darn important even if it wasn't always a priority. You never know what might end up taking place at this stadium besides a few football games. The reality is that wherever this thing ends up, it benefits the region and its residents to try to make it an accessible venue and an overall success. Transit really needs to be baked into the decision-making
