Chicago should sue the NFL now for using their name in a product that is no longer associated in their city.

Not any different than the NY Giants/Jets, Washington Commanders (though this is changing), San Francisco 49ers, Dallas Cowboys, etc

Is it possible that is what he is?

It’s possible. And that’s why it’s scary, because that’s the type of Dem that could win TX.

Talarico was first elected to the state house by winning in an area that was traditionally republican in the 2018 blue wave election

The rumors around them buying the Mavs because they expect to be able to build a casino around a new arena have been out there since they bought the team

Yeah I know I guess I don't understand why you need to own a team to build a casino around an arena

I still find it unbelievable they think obtaining a gaming license and building a casino in Texas is something that will happen in the near term future. There is simply no way they are that naive to the political atmosphere in the state
