The article is about the lack of chess teams in CPS, even though the IL Chess Assoc. has repeatedly offered to start a team for EVERY CPS that wanted one, and the association wanted to raise the money to pay for any & all expenses incurred so that, in a nutshell, CPS wouldn't have to pay anything. This wonderful idea has been banging around (since 2010!)--that's right, it has NOT been put into motion because...well, three guesses why? The two guys working on this have been, according to Ben's article, batted around from one mayoral aide to another.
