You can argue all you want about the economic impact of sports franchises to their markets (as there is evidence they have limited contribution) but what impression does it give potential residents and investors when a key part of the city's identity -- with 150 years of heritage -- goes waltzing out the door?

We are already being mocked in the national media for even considering building a suburban stadium in the 21st century. If we actually go ahead and do it, it will do far more damage to our image than losing a football team.
