It’s dead Jim. Reminds me of the Kings deal in 2013.

I’m hoping it dies a quick death. There may be an opportunity for MLB in the future but this organization with this owner isn’t it. 

I'd LOVE MLB here in Vegas and would go to several games a year even if it's the lowly A's. But I'm with you in that the stupidest thing ever is to give hundreds of millions of public money as welfare to billionaires to build their toys and then keep the profits.  Have the same feelings about the stupid F1 race and Marky Mark trying to get money to build movie studios here.  I personally don't understand how it's even legal.

How many businesses does Marky Mark need to have fail before people stop giving him money.

Passed by the Nevada senate yesterday, passed by the Assembly today, back to the senate ASAP for final approval, then the governor signs off on it.

Now we will see if the A's owner gets cold feet.

Damn, I was hoping Vegas would get a better deal for themselves and tell that owner to pound sand.

Damn, this thing is like Covid. Every time you think it’s dying it just mutates and comes back to life.

My posting life has been like COVID.  I’ve re-invented myself several times on this board!

Weak ass legislators.  I wonder how they were bought off.  Meanwhile Reno and Vegas are two of the worst funded public universities outside of the deep South.  Way to go, Nevada.
