Dan Bernstein, Laurence Holmes and Leila Rahimi opened their show by pondering why Bears chairman George McCaskey is so opposed to the team being featured on the HBO show "Hard Knocks." After that, their conversation shifted to the team's stadium plans. Are the Bears making a genuine push to build a new domed stadium on Chicago's lakefront? Or is their focus there a leverage ploy to get a better deal in Arlington Heights? The Bears still own Arlington Park, the former home of the Arlington International Racecourse in Arlington Heights that the organization purchased for $197.2 million in February 2023.
