I assume this is because of cost of land? I mean, Minn was $1.1 bil, Raiders 1.9, Falcons 1.5..... LA has been the only real outlier for cost.
$1.4 bil is not cheap. We should expect it to be first rate, and moreso if it is majority private funding.
Agree, ugh. Kinda makes me worry.
The last 3 stadiums built have been wonders (Atl, Minn, and LA I think) and all were majority private financing.
I forgot Raiders... also majority private financing
He might not be very likeable, but what makes him "utterly terrible?"
From what I've read:
- he was an alcoholic
- he fights with paparazzi
- he doesn't like his ex-wife and subsequently his daughter for being too much like her
A big portion of the NFL feels so dirty at this point, between players, coaches, owners and the whole system. I hope the Bills can keep their feet clean, at least.
I'm all for a new league. It's just almost impossible to get one off the ground.
