Somewhat off topic but there has been a lot of debate on here about whether Nenshi's statements are too combative etc.
I was reading this article about the City rejecting the Cubs request for more night games and couldn't help but parallel it with Nenshi.

Quote:
but Emanuel said that when the North Siders were offered more "evening opportunities," they decided to host more concerts instead, limiting the number of evening contests on their home field.
" ... They could have used it for night games," Emanuel told the Sun-Times' Fran Spielman. "But then, they would have to share it with Major League Baseball. The concerts they keep all for themselves like they do the beer on the plaza.
"They made those choices. Now, they want to change the consequences of the choices they made."

Obviously totally different contexts, but Emanuel's comments are pretty brazen/hilarious
