Without the VIP's and Sponsors, we wouldn't be able to rent a giant Dome, so we do have to take care of them.
People want Atlanta back, but STL and Indiana are the only two indoor football domes that they can remove the turf and have convention centers attached in the US*. WHERE will you put the pits (ESPECIALLY if they are going to be larger) if the CMP goes back to Atlanta?

As for Indiana, it has EXACTLY the same problems as STL. Airport isn't a hub, there is some crime, hotel situation isn't great... I can go on...

*That I know of.
