The weird thing is that I remember having a conversation about this back at BM...and so many posters thought it was necessary since the stadiums are used for public purposes as well....bull shit...maybe a tax break for the use, but not a tax increase on the people.

and I'm a sports fan...

but nothing against the corporate use of emminent domain? Scalia would be so proud.
