I hope the delay for the project isnt so that the Flames can also budget in a Football stadium for the Stamps. In reality, for the amount of games the Stamps play, there is no need for a new stadium, especially at taxpayers cost(if that is the plan). The Flames bring much more revenue to the city and an NHL arena will still be able to accomadate other entertainment options.
Unless the football stadium will have more than one entertainment option(Stamps) there is no reason for it, eventhough McMahon is a dump. I have no qualms with some tax dollars going to the new arena as the building will benefit not just the Flames games, buy many other things. A definitive football only stadium for the CFL(stamps) is waste. If the flames want to ante up for all the costs for a CFL stadium, sure, if not, then dont build it.
