Remember the Bears sweepstakes to acquire this hot, young team?

Country Club Hills is late to the party, but they’re at the party nonetheless. Cook County Commissioner Monica Gordon sent a letter last month to the team’s president and CEO, Kevin Warren, along with the Bears’ matriarch, Virginia McCaskey, inviting them to explore a site in Country Club Hills for a potential stadium.

They now join Arlington Heights, Aurora, Naperville, Richton Park, and Waukegan in the hunt to lure the Bears away from Soldier Field.
