My unpopular and vindictive reason for being happy about this result is that this time last year we were dragging people out of the midfield mobile home park because there was no way in our super tight city budget that these guys could find 4 million dollars to keep a moral and not unprecedented obligation and commitment to those citizens. So, right or wrong, I'm glad these people don't get to play Olympics. No trips to Switzerland or Beijing. No parties, no meetings, no fun projects. Just keep saving that 4 million.
The oval would make a decent field house. That ice is expensive. Let the soccer players have it.
