Of course, an owner using relocation as bargaining leverage is absurd.

It actually works too!  Just look at the mess Hamilton County tax-payers are in thanks to Mike Brown 'threatening' to move the Bengals.  The contract stipulates that we(tax-payers) are responsible for all upkeep and upgrades on PBS, we will be paying for a $100M Jumbo-Tron this year.  To make matters worse, MB has final say on what events can take place at PBS, he vetoed a high school football game 2 years ago.

Did I mention he controls the concessions as well?  In 2006 during a scorching hot pre-season game, they ran out of bottled water at PBS.  What did Mikey do you ask...the POS charged $3 per cup for tap water.  In fairness though, the price for bottled water was $3.50.

Maybe you were unable to read between the lines, I'll spell it out for you.

The Hamilton county tax-payers pay all the bills at PBS, water included.

He charged the Hamilton County tax-payers $3 for said water.

He did this during a pre-season game where the temperature was 100 degrees with 90% humidity.

Yea.  It's one of the reasons why I think they've been in no hurry to put a team back in LA.  Gotta have a legit venue to threaten with.  Dubuque doesn't have quite the ring to it...

Are you just trying the Moran hat on or are you seriously thinking about buying it?  

a Moran hat?

Just wanted to say:

I forgive the Falcons for their foray into the world of Petrino.

It was a mistake, nobody is immune. He was a forgettable footnote into the history of your franchise.








As a Buccaneers fan, I hope you will afford me the same luxury someday... when I request it.
