I just thanked a Tinordi post - that felt weird.
He's right thought. Just say no to public funds paying for a private arena. I could however get behind a station on the green line, or any existing line, that makes the stadium more accessible.
I love the back and fourth in this thread. There have been countless studies and numbers posted on the simple fact that using tax dollars to build a stadium is a terrible investment yet people keep coming back and saying the opposite.
Simple question, if the Flames ownership group is already a top 10 earner in the league with an antiquated stadium what makes you think they'll do better in a new market? The Flames, with the oldest stadium in the league, already out profit 20 other markets. 20 markets with newer and fancier stadiums. Don't fall for the hype, they're not going anywhere.
