I am still trying to unpack the layers of this thing, as you are, as many of us are that aren't full time political entangled, you know, trying to entangle the knots that are in within this story, admittedly, have more. Questions and answers at this point, more confusion probably than clarity. What I do know, above all else, is that I don't know that I trust anybody involved in this entire situation. Bears, state lawmakers, whatever. Is there anybody in this saga, which is filled with characters that you look at and say, they've got their ass together and they're going to get this figured out?
No. And just when I think one side does have their shit together, it comes against me. It's egg in my face, you know, because I, for instance, when the Bears bought the property in India or not bought the property, agreed to the deal in Indiana, had Indiana on their side. I thought it was a great move. by the Chicago Bears. I mean, there could not have been better leverage at all. But since then, it's like they haven't really... It seems like the Bears haven't taken Indiana seriously. It's their move, and they're not making it, and it doesn't feel like the follow-through is really there. So I kind of got off the wagon on that, and I've kind of been hot and cold with the state of Illinois. Some of it necessary madness.
I get it. Like, you do have to... that's why they exist to do their due diligence to, in theory, to protect people, but they've dragged their feet so much on all of this as well. So yeah, no, I am with you on that. It's confusing. It's hard to figure out what side to be on and figure out who's right, who's wrong, and who is just in all of this.
Before you get to your 145 page bullet points of everything that's happened in this crazy saga. I mean, it's just, it is mind blowing to kind of, figure out the complexity of this whole saga and figure out where it's headed next. But what is more than apparent is that the Bears are not a priority for the state. And that's what sets the stage for everything that's gone. And by the way, I did stay up Sunday night. The House of Representatives in the Illinois State Legislature adjourned at like 446 in the morning on Sunday. My wife got out of bed at like 502 and is like looking at me downstairs like, what are you doing? Like, have you really not come to bed yet? I'm trying to explain like, yeah, literally the state legislation, the state legislature is still in session and it's all just ending.
And guess what? The final resolution is nothing. There's no resolution.
No resolution. And to your point about this not being a priority from the state of Illinois, Senator Bill Cunningham, who is the president pro temp of the Illinois Senate, was on my radio station, our radio station, if you will, 104.3 The Score.
