Des,

I agree he needs a say, I have no problem with that. My problem is that he's quoting "experts" without giving the proof of what he's saying. He's also demanding naming rights revenue as well. If it's the city's stadium, why should this revenue be his?

He's claimed that he cannot survive at WH but won't open his books to the city to prove it, despite being asked many times.

His negotiating tactics are dirty as well, waiting to the last minute before dropping the ultimatum knowing that an election was coming up and that the Pan Am games time table is pressing.

He is entitled to a say, he is entitled to some of the revenue generated, but neither of those should be taken as having the say or even being the recipient of most of the money. If he fronts more money, then he's welcome to a bigger ROI. But as taxpayers, so are we.

I, for one, am sick of privatized profits and socialized losses. It stuns me that everyone else isn't as well.

I am disappointment in you're grammar.
