You be the judge....Governor Nixon or Carmine Falcone (Batman Begins):
They both look like a couple of shysters to me.
Missouri Governor Jay Nixon spoke with News 4’s Steve Savard about the new stadium proposal. Watch the full interview to see what Gov. Nixon had to say about the future of NFL football in St. Louis.

Hope what you said is true. I'm hesitant to trust the governor, even if he is so adamant about this being a non-issue.
Condescending? He is writing opinion on what he is learned. You disagree with what he has to say so you call him a "freaking mutt" and "wouldn't mind if someone did him" ?
If I say agree with him are you going to say the same thing about me?
It's behavior like this that's going to get this thread locked.
And many people around the state of New York dislike New York City because that's where all the money goes, but at times they forget that is where most of the money is.
One thing that is great about this thread the adage "There are two sides to every story." How about six hundred sides with this story?
The idea that St. Louis could "still" be an NFL city is insulting and yes, condescending. This IS an "NFL city" and has been for nearly 50 years overall....about the same as Los Angeles before its current hiatus (now 20 years and counting). The fact that hacks like Vinny write and publish their opinions does not shield them from criticism in any and all forms, such as:
Psychological projection is a theory in psychology in which humans defend themselves against unpleasant impulses by denying their existence in themselves, while attributing them to others.
Hyperbole - noun - meaning 'exaggerated statements or claims not meant to be taken literally'.
The only thing that would cause a rational person to think the thread needs to be closed would be a string of responses personally attacking other board members for stating contrarian views.
Ha! I think she is current 0 for 3 on previous tweets. We she starts to tweet things in your favor it may be the kiss of death.
Not only that but they're announcing the creation of a stadium authority that they've already created. This authority is the one who holds the rights to the land other than the 10 acres or whatever it is the clubs own for the parking garage.
Didnt she already proclaim Rams to LA was being announced this month?
Covering all the bases huh Jeanie?

She also said the Raiders would stay in Oakland but fly down to play their games in LA.
Yeah can't say I am putting any stock in her tweet. She is all over the map with this stuff.

The scary thing is that if he can extend the bonds on the stadium based upon a law from almost 20 years ago, could that the same precedence be used again for something else. The adjacent argument doesn't hold but the real question is did the bill authorize the building of one stadium or did it allow them to build stadiums forever. That's why this is in court and it's not about the legislatures inaction but the wording of the original bill.
