I don't mean to come off as negative on this project, and of course I realize the potential economic benefits (hosting a superbowl, development in the surrounding area, increased uses for the dome), but it rubs me the wrong way when billionaire owners want to have local taxes pay for much of a new stadium. If it's really needed, pay for it yourself. Then have the city kick in funds to improve the sidewalks/roads/safety/etc in the surrounding area. That seems fair to me.
