That is the most apt and succinct characterization of the post-Meeker CDI that I believe I have ever read.

Good to hear from you again Pete.

The REALLY good reason to hate the Bears will come if/when they begin lobbying for state taxpayers to foot the bill for their new stadium along with probably at least a portion of their cost to acquire this land. These would be the same state taxpayers who are far too poor to have paid for the Assembly's commitments to support Illinois racing passed way back in 1999. And who are too poor to support all the other things the Assembly has agreed to but never funded, such as pensions.
