As usual, some naysaying clown got up there and spouted the same ol, same ol negative rhetoric and was so clued out he said the stadium would cost between 200-300 thousand dollars and it wasn't a slip of the tongue.

Also made a moronic statement about moving all the sports teams out of Chicago and having no negligible effect. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and think he may have said financial effect. Guys like that should talk to the older people of Brooklyn and ask them how losing the Dodgers affected Brooklyn.

When Bowser spoke of the stadium, he used the figure of 200 million. That was about what IGF in Winnipeg cost at 33k seats. And why do people keep talking to this idiot Moshe Lander who keeps mentioning a stadium size of 30-40k seats. Has he ever checked out anything on the recent CFL in the eastern markets?
