(670 The Score) Fox 32 sports anchor Lou Canellis had long hoped and thought the Bears would work out a deal with the city and state to build a new stadium along the lakefront.
“Now, I think it’s Arlington Heights without question,” Canellis said on Score Middays on Wednesday.
Canellis’ tune has changed as the Bears’ tune has changed. On Wednesday morning, Bears president Kevin Warren acknowledged the franchise is focused on both downtown and Arlington Heights as a location to build a new stadium. That was a departure from Warren's public stance of the past year, as he had claimed the sole focus was on building a new stadium on the lakefront while indicating that Arlington Heights was a secondary option.
