Turbo,

Which of the two parties, BY or Council, has refused to show their books? Which of the two parties has thrown down an ultimatum?

All BY had to do a year or two ago was say "I can't make this location work, period, and I won't move the team there" and it probably would have been taken off the table while there were several other choices available. Either that or they would have worked out some sort of compensation. This last minute crap caught everyone by surprise and the 'Cats refusal to show any numbers, despite being asked repeatedly for them, can only cast doubt on their position.

As far as effects go, I worked at a restaurant at Barton and Gage years ago and on game nights there would sometimes be an hour and a half lineup. Lots of people means that restaurants in particular do well. BY knows this, which is why he wants to invest his capital not in the stadium, but beside the stadium.

It's also why he doesn't want the stadium in an area where he can't capture all the revenue streams.

Earl, I'm glad you've got faith in BY, but all I can judge him by are his recent actions.

I am disappointment in you're grammar.
