If only it worked like that.

The NFL, a non-profit organization no less, is subsidized by the american tax payer to the tune of $1 billion/year for stadium creation.

Time and time again billionaire owners get their stadiums paid for so they can make more money. The precedent has been set - it's only a matter of time.
