[QUOTE="Deleted member 631370, post: 1412657"] I realize Whitman and others are looking to fundraise and all that, and that's important. But I'm not convinced we're helping our brand more than hurting it by playing in front of a near-empty stadium. All this "we are Chicago's Big Ten team" crap rings pretty hollow when hardly anybody in Chicago cares enough to attend the game. How about this. How about we take the baby steps first -- you know, winning than 3 games a season on a regular basis -- before promoting the brand with this Soldier Field nonsense. [/QUOTE]
