At least this time they had the courtesy of giving prior notice, unlike Art Modell or Robert Irsay.

I agree that cities shouldn't be building stadiums. As to the timing issue, however, Irsay was facing seizure of the team through eminent domain. Had he waited 'till morning, the crooked pols would have stolen his team. And the City of Baltimore would be the proud owner of an NFL franchise, which would probably be renamed for Freddie Gray by now.
