I heard in conversation last night somebody said the lakefront renderings reminded them of World's Fair artwork and Land of Tomorrow concepts. I've never looked at stadium renderings that way before, but with this particular stadium and the wretched logistics that control it, those designs are absolutely FutureWorld goofiness. As others have said and will continue to say, this is not going to happen, and if it does, it certainly won't be anything like this. At this rate the Bears would be lucky to come out of this with marginal "improvements" to Soldier Field. Likely one of which would be a statue of Kevin Warren holding hands with Jesus ala the "Partners" sculpture in Disney World.

@Sodboy13 (quoted above) and @The_Admiral can opine with more clarity on the politics and local points, so I'll not bother, but as a very passionate and long-time Bears fan, the non-twitter reaction to the renderings, the financial plan, and the church sermon/press conference has been quiet. Dead quiet. I think most will view this whole endeavor with a pre-installed fatigue over the consistently mind-boggling financial decisions the Bears organization has made for decades, bolstered by the tiresome and constant hand-wringing of billionaire NFL owners crying poor, and how stadiums are, for whatever reason, only lasting maybe 10-15 years before it is absolutely vital that a new stadium be built with a huge allotment of taxpayer dollars. The twist of having this particular mission being, apparently, a mission from The Lord, is a particularly insulting one, but I guess relentless prayer has kept Virginia McCaskey alive since the Battle of Bull Run and was surely the primary constructor of US Bank Stadium in Minneapolis, so what the hell do I know?

The prayer before the stadium presentation was really a bad look. Kevin Warren's faux-ministry bull stuff really makes me ill. I could give a rat's ass about the renderings or the financial plans.

Old Poorly-Educated Great-Uncle Voice: HEHEH LOOKS LIKE DEH TEXANS ARE ON THE RAGGGGGG

That's a great look. I like the new numbers, personally. Collar looks good with pads.

HOME AND AWAY: ALTERNATE: COLOR RUSH:

Between weed, painkillers, and HGH, they'll be plenty high for both road and home games next season. edit: Oh, and cocaine!

This feels very much like a Jets situation. They'll drop these crap-ass new unis and go with the old school look asap.

The captain looks far more bored in the new branding. In the previous design he's pleasantly sauced, arrogant, and trying to get laid. In this new one it's the same photoshoot but the next morning when he's hungover as and is preoccupied with getting Taco Bell.

Guessing they'll do something like Copperheads or Honey Badgers.

What else can be said? We’re in hell.

The White Sox odds are +25,000 to win the world series, so
