I’ll never understand why taxpayers are put on the hook to finance private enterprise.
If they indeed to finance the stadium, do they not also have a right to a measurable percent of the profits (in addition to the normal scraps sports gods choose to throw back to the state)?
If the team is so d*mned wanted, then the “owners” should be able to pay all costs.
The bridges aren’t safe, but by gum we got ourselves a brand spanking new stadium.
