[Flame On]

Fine King doesn't come across well, we get it.

But can it be disputed that the main crux of his point is that disconnect with what the Flames stadium/organization brings to the city and the owners desire that has some financial merit in an area the City wants to rebuild anyway.

I wish he would have just come out and said: yes the addition of a new stadium you want anyway, the infrastructure improvements and the whole package of the Flames with Jobs and city vitality is worth 33% in a hand out. (then maybe let it be known that there is room as to what that number looks like in terms of payback, and how its done.)

It feels to me its solely that last 1/3 that is the sticking point.
