It's really the LSED and the State at the end of the day with the black eye, not surprisingly. With SB 2025 in the balance and clearly in front, pressure is on to have the renovations completed in time.

On a side note, the amounts and budget increases for the renovations seem excessive for an already built structure.
If anyone hasn't been in the Dome in the past couple of years you'd be shocked at how dramatic the renovations have been to date. Night and day different. You wouldn't even recognize the place. And this doesn't include the things that you and I can't see.

much easier to pay a mediocre team of NFL athletes and "has beens", as opposed to paying a team of elite NFL athletes.... and still sell out a stadium for fans to eyewitness firsthand, mediocracy.

Among the things that you and I can’t see in the Dome, is a championship team. But the toilets are cleaner for licking, so there’s that.

It's been quite a buch of years now for me. I am really looking forward to going back but it looks like it won't be before 2025 thou.

You really need to let me know when you come in next. We have to meet up before or after the game!

When the self proclaimed "king of debt" misses a payment it's not news. Why is this news? That was my point. And as your nemesis Guido mentioned they are paying their bills but they are withholding payment for a good reason. They are demanding an explanation for why the cost of renovating the Dome is so very far over budget! Pick a better fight than that!

still..... Why mention Trump.... sour grapes on your part. Trump has NOTHING to do with the Saint's Organization. uh... as far as "guido" nemesis is not the adjective i would use. Think more anal like. oh... and not picking a fight, merely pointing out undisputed facts.
