    Economic impact studies are ways to attempt to 'paper the house' with figures used as window dressing . We refer to them when we want to drive home a point. Anyway, it's all good for talking points.

    What are you trying to say here? Paper the house? Window dressing? Do you have anything to refute the studies that show that tax payer funded stadiums are not a huge money suck for the tax payers and a bonanza for the team owners?

    I think that's what he's saying. I love reading Field of Schemes | sports stadium news and analysis to see editorials on stadium projects across the country.

    Jersey Boss, that was not an attack on the piece you referenced. Just saying that we have our sources when we want to drive home a point, which you did. I'm as guilty of this as anyone:

    BTW, How many owners actually build their own stadiums and arenas to support a major professional sport (MLB, NFL, NBA, NHL, MLS)?

    No "attack" taken, just some confusion. We're all good Laramie.
