It has been in the news for years and recently resurfaced that the Bears are possibly looking for a new stadium, and it could be in Arlington Heights. What is going on right now? Ken Davis, Eric Strobel, and Tony Gill debate the pros and cons for leaving their current home -- historic Soldier Field -- and what the chances are that the team actually would make this move at some point.
