Re: Atlanta May Be Building A New Stadium

It's gonna be years before any new stadium comes to fruition.
They have to go through the usual tango of the team claiming poverty and that the city should foot most of the bill because it generates so much revenue for the community. The mayor will counter that the taxpayers are burdened enough by taxes and should not have to pay for something so frivolous when there are so many other needs to be addressed. The team will threaten to move (LA, San Antonio, Mexico City ect. ect.) ESPN will speculate speculate speculate. A compromise will be reached. Both sides will shake hands and go on as if they were planning to go along with the whole thing all along.
A decade later the stadium will be built.'
Meanwhile FIRST would have moved on and probably gone to Indianapolis, Detroit and Dallas and is considering going back to Atlanta in 2025.
