Ha, I was just about to ask if you were still in Chicago, as I'd be able to give more specific advice in that case.

I think the decision depends on so many things, but I tend to lean towards the in-person MBA.

Are you planning to stay in the same area for a while? Some schools are "no-name" nationally, but well-known locally. You will also network with people in your area in a way that you wouldn't at an online school, both classmates and instructors.

Are you planning to be IN business, or are you planning to be in another field, but move into management? I think school name matters far less in the latter.

Personally, when I review resumes, I don't think that much of the online degree, because a ton of the stuff I did in my MBA could not have been done online, and I think the online courses I've taken have been far less valuable.

Also, the schools on the list you linked aren't even that big name. I think "big name," I want to see Wharton, Harvard, Booth, etc.
