Been watching the council meeting live. Can't believe these chicks are running the show.

I don’t even know who they are nor have I watched to see who they are but I bet I heard that dog whistle. Cliches are cliches for a reason.

The rich will get richer. As they often do.

Panthers owner David Tepper, who is worth roughly $20 billion, will get $650 million in taxpayer money for renovations to the team’s 29-year-old stadium.

Via Bret McCormick of Sports Business Journal, Charlotte City Council voted 7-3 to approve the proposal on Monday night. Tepper will contribute $150 million. He also will be responsible for cost overruns.

Lol. You got no sense of humor. 

I really didn’t know any details about the city council I live a long way away. Yet I knew exactly what was being referenced. How does that make ME a bad guy?

The issue of stadium funding one that needs to be addressed with legislation at the national level. No way should any city or state be handing billionaire team owners hundreds of millions of dollars to help build stadiums that will be 100% owned by the team. At the very least the taxpayers should have partial ownership of the stadium and receive revenue from any events held there or have the team(s) that play there pay rent. poo; something.
