Oh that, yeah..I see what you mean.

However, I am not convinced that Sandy problems equals downtown relocation. As Sandy Mayor Dolan pointed out today, RSL already owns a lot of land in Sandy.

Besides, SLC has no money and downtown is if anything, MORE expensive than Sandy would ever be. Oh and Fairpark will never work. You heard it here first. πŸ˜‰

Uncle Dave has a fiduciary responsibility to move the team to the city with the stupidest possible taxpayers.

When you look at the amount of money that Zonies gave to billionaires to build Bank One/Chase Ballpark, Phoenicians can't be too smart.

Didn't the also spend a lot of money to build a new stadium for the Cardinals?

I was still holding out hope for the Fairpark.

We can drive the Guess Your Weight And Win A Prize man a fit when Sigi Schmidt and the Crew visit.

That's not gloating

"smart" taxpayers = no soccer.

bordelais7 <- "stupid taxpayer"

The Blitzz never asked for any taxpayer money and they'd still be around today if Corporate Welfare Queens RSL hadn't have moved in.

Real Phoenix's first player personnel move should be to sign Ante Cop.

Are you seriously comparing the Blitzz and RSL? Seriously?

Wow, screw RSL. Hey, maybe we can even land a second-division futsal team, or maybe even a triple-A curling franchise! Bet they wouldn't ask for money!

I'll bet we could get Arena Football and a Lacrosse team as well!

It is unfair to compare RSL and the Blitzz.

The Blitzz management was committed to Utah, brought in the best players that they could afford and actually won once in a while.

RSL isn't going anywhere. The Sandy Stadium will still happen. RSL will eventually win again.
