Ishbia has no idea what it means to White Sox fans to be from the South side and have our baseball stadium located there, and he doesn't care. This is all about him, another greedy billionaire who wants to buy a stadium and baseball team. He already owns a soccer team and part of an NBA franchise.

I have Fox Chicago 32 news on in the background while I'm prepping for my show this morning and I think I just saw you on it, talking about this Amtrak thing. Was I hallucinating?

With the Sox eyeing this, the city along with the Sox could've offered Rate Field and the surrounding parking lots to the Bears. Missed opportunity.
