[QUOTE="H D, post: 930518, member: 68494"] I agree with that completely. Arthur Blank wants new retractable roof stadium in Atlanta, but wants taxpayers to front the cost. I say the current stadium works just fine. If he wants a new stadium, he should pay for it. If an owner did pay for the stadium himself, surely profit would decrease and salaries would too, but I still don't think that is an argument that the players make too much money. I know where the argument will go when you say that if the money goes into the stadium, salaries will go down, but I don't think the cuts would necessarily have to come from players' salaries. There are better numbers people than me and that's why they own businesses like Home Depot and the Atlanta Falcons, though. ...they'd be better off using a foreign sounding name and basing operations overseas to get the land for free and 10 years of tax free operation like the new Hyundai plant in Georgia. They'd also be exempt from labor unions, political threats, exorbitant fees for "environmental damage," etc., etc. [/QUOTE]
