Chicago Bears bought Arlington Heights track only to build next to Soldier Field?
While I agree, there is no shortage of developers and investors in the area that they could raise the funds and control the stadium. Everyone I know thinks this is the stupidest idea, they are not getting any of the items they wanted with a new stadium, not control and revenue, not extra...- boone7247

UFL Rosters - Cyclones
Can someone explain why Mike Rose isn’t on an NFL roster? He always makes plays and is around the ball. Just don’t understand why a guy like that isn’t a backup somewhere.- boone7247

The thought this goes away is I think unlikely. They have a donor base now. Whether the collectives fold into the AD or something else happens, when players are getting paid by the AD they will still need the money. It ain’t coming from the TV money.- boone7247

Food in QC
We used to be in the QC for a week each year. Tappas was a favorite, but apparently it is closed now. Was a good place shame. Sorry can't help any further. -
Cytown Update
0% of $0 is still $0. So, if getting an investment that brings jobs and will raise sales tax revenue means trading 10 years of RE taxes, that I wouldn't have gotten previously, how is that not worth it? Is there a cost to the city for infrastructure, sure there is. But long term, they will...- boone7247

Max is a fantastic driver, that is obvious when you hear other drivers talk about him, and his accomplishments. This isn't to take away from Max, I think it is true with every dominate driver F1 has had. The driver and the team are able to create a car that in that driver's hands is just...- boone7247

Are Free Throws really that hard to make?
They are harder to shoot in the game. Bet you lipsey shoots at or better tha. 80% in practice. I think it is mental, and would be hard to fix mid season. Dudes need complete trust in the shot and once that goes away it will be streaky.- boone7247

Roll Back 2 Years - Post ISU Expectations of Purdy
I always thought his ceiling was the Chase Daniel roll. Be a good dude, and get to play a few games in your career that show you are competent, and be in the league for 10+ years as an effectively player/coach in the QB room.- boone7247

What's streaming that's good TV/movies
I watched the first episode after Brock Purdy made the SB last night. I enjoyed it an look forward to episode two at some point his week. While you have access don't miss Slow Horses on Apple. First season takes a little bit to get into but the payoff at the end of the season and then season... -
What's streaming that's good TV/movies
Just finished season 3. Love the show. Oldman deserves something for his acting in this above what he is getting paid. Happy to see season 4 is coming. Overall both seasons are fun. The increased budget of season two is noticeable. I felt the characters were more believable this season over... -
What strange foods do you like?
No clue if these fall in the weird category or not. Peanut butter on pancakes and it is even better on waffles. Maple syrup and PB were made for each other. I love a grilled cheese sandwich with cold pork n beans to dip the sandwich into. My Polish wife's family makes the equivalent of... -

Sorry really slow here. It is line $10k to have two outside seats to ISU games? That seems ******* cheap! Edit: went and looked at the January OSU game. No court side available. Second row 110 was $170 a seat on vivid. So maybe Chicago has just wrapped my sense of what things should cost...- boone7247

@brentblum how far away are we from an athletic department leasing their football or basketball stadium to a collective? Or would that be totally against the rules? Seems like a logically next step. Schools gets their revenue stream and the collective gets to control ticket prices and...- boone7247

Time for Sanders to be the featured back
from my angle he was the only one to hit the play with any speed. Norton would literally jog to the line then fall backward. Getting 2 vs 0 is huge. Sama wants to bounce outside too quick still. Sanders at least was quick to the hole which limited the negative runs, and helped allow the PA to...
