Hopefully this loss will stall talks of a $500 million taxpayer funded stadium. The Irsays are holding this city hostage. If the statists in LA are buying, the Colts should pick up and move there. We don't need them here draining our economy.

Tell the Irsay's that Bob Kraft paid for his own stadium.

The VERY reason I was elated that the Pats didn't come to Hartford even though I'd only be a 15 minute drive away! Rowland was about to practically give Kraft control of the state to get him to come here, somewhere in the neighborhood of $600 million + infrastructure improvements, on a virtually unworkable location. I'm glad they stayed where they did, in a more or less central location in relation to the population centers of New England, and that Kraft put up his own money.
