taxpayers pay for stadiums, at least partially, in almost all cases.

Not Met Life in NJ .1.6 billion privately funded .

Flipping across the channels and came across Djax's new....."reality" show. If mindless inane drivel were an NFL infraction, he would be in Rogers office right crying about a much deserved suspension.

Except for the nearly 300 million dollars new jersey had to spend rebuilding the infrastructure in the area. they also don't really pay any taxes for revenue from ticket sales and other sources of revenue. plus the state has to cover the 100 million dollar bond payment for the old stadium.

but besides that I'm sure the state got a great deal. NFL owners know how to screw local economies one way or the other.

Again , no the owners paid for any and all infrastructure from the stadium to the roads the state was all ready building as part of the new mall which was already planned to begin with , the old stadium was paid for .

There is your perception..........and here is the reality.

Zoffinger said that while the teams liked to claim that they built their stadium with private funds, New Jersey taxpayers are on the hook for about $400 million in road improvements, a new rail link from Secaucus and more than $100 million to retire the debt on the old stadium after it is torn down.

Let's not even talk about the costs that NJ ate for the Super Bowl.

Feels so rare when the Cowboys are taken to task over shit like that. It's always: "Cowboys being the Cowboys!" Have a lady who worked with me for years who was a total bitch, mediocre performer, and everyone was like, "That's just her being her!" She finally got fired. I'm a sports fan, and God knows the Redskins have their share of faults, but when do you start realizing your team gives less than two-shits about being a "good guy" as long as it helps them win a football game.
