Turbo,

The only person interested in investing at Longwood is Bob Young, because what he's offering to build already exists in the downtown area.

The Whitestar group has some interesting plans for the area around the WH location, so you can't tell me that there's no interest there.

Please explain to me how it makes sense to a) build this stadium in a location that really only benefits Bob Young's investments; b) give Bob Young naming rights to the city's stadium; and c) give Bob Young all the parking revenues from our stadium.

Contrary to your expressed statement that we don't want the 'Cats to earn any money, I want them to earn money from their core product, not from public money invested. If BY wants to kick in his own money to help build the stadium then he's more than welcome to a return on that investment. Otherwise that money should come to the city. Please explain to me why that's wrong.

A downtown stadium will bring people and their money to the core where it's needed. Longwood will bring people from the highway to the stadium and back to the highway, with a minor stop in Bob's World.

I am disappointment in you're grammar.
