I heard Representative Cam Bucker on the score earlier repeat that phrasing today.

So as clumsy as it may have been at some times, it could all end up working out the way that everybody had kind of thought it was going to this entire time with the Bears ending up in Ireland tonight.

Right.

Yeah.

Look, and I, yeah, I went to that press conference and I walked away from it, honestly, with, um, some major red flags because, um, you know, not only was it the site, but I asked him specifically, you know, the, the, the 2 billion that the, uh, you know, the lawmakers in Indiana said, you know, champion that morning that the bears were going to be putting towards the, you know, let's just call it a mega project in Indiana.

Um, cause

What specifically was that money going to go towards?

And there was no answer on that either.

So we didn't have a site.

We think we know what the site is, right?

But we don't know specifically around that Wolf Lake area.

Then it came out, too, that there's some major questions about that area.

So there was just the tone.

shifted, I thought, quite dramatically from that morning to that afternoon by the time that the mayor Hammond had his press conference later in the day.

And so I do think that that's

That's a fair point.

And since I'm back on with you guys, the thing that, and maybe I wasn't clear enough about this that I wanted to make sure was clear today, was the legislation, the deal with Indiana is what I was referring to and still referring to.

I put it in my story last night.

They're at the finish line or goal line since everybody wanted to make a big deal of that phrasing, and that's fine.

But that doesn't mean the Bears have to take the deal.
