So our sister team is getting a new stadium?

[ladypanther]

This is proposed...not yet approved.  May take about another year to have the answer from the city about funding.

Crazy how getting a transcendent player (Lawerence) changes everything

 

 they went from tarps to unveiling an incredible stadium plan

I have been to the current stadium. It is very nice.

We need a new field, even our own players say it's poo 

But I am sure the NFLPA will take action on that matter soon , atleast they should

A major renovation of the existing BOA Stadium could hinge on a bill in the state legislature to extend existing hospitality taxes until 2060 to provide taxpayer financing.

Sure, feel free to buy them one. Let's just not use tax payer dollars on it.

Let's have the ultra wealthy actually pay for their own sh!t for a change.

Could this not be what the plan would be for us with that hella big proposal of $1.2B in renovations to BoA?

Something like this would be ideal for us. No dome, but protection from the brutal sun in September and October. Change the field back to grass and boom, there you go.

why shouldnt they get a new stadium,  they did goto the super bowl. oh wait.

I always thought this guy looks like he failed trying to start his own boy band in Orlando then moved slightly north to Jacksonville to open a dumpy ice cream shop that is doing barely marginal but he was too dumb to realize he opened it up across the street from a Dairy Queen and next door to a Jenny Craig

Im just here to say Florida doesn't deserve 3 NFL teams.

 

 

 

 

Why?

California has the largest population (39 million) of any state and has 3 teams.  Texas is 2nd (30) on that list and they have 2, Florida is 3rd (22) and have 3, New York is 4th (19) and they also have 3, then a sizable population drop (from 19.6 million to 12.9) to Pennsylvania who has 2 teams, then Illinois (12) who only has the 1, and then Ohio (11) who has 2.  

After that, Georgia, North Carolina, and Michigan are the only other states with 10+ million population, but all under 11 million which the above states all at least have.

So just from a population standpoint there is no real reason they shouldn't have 3 teams, then add in that it's a warm location and I don't think there is anything wrong with it.  If anything, the argument shouldn't be that Florida doesn't deserve 3, but that Texas should have a 3rd given their population size.

Now if you want to say they don't deserve 3 teams just because the state is freaking crazy, then that's a different argument that I can't fault, LOL

Hoping you weren't the only one with that story?
