Grape,
The GEICO lawyer is on the phone. He says Jeff Loria told him to call.

I understand the concern for not giving away money for this, but consider the alternative, a city without Major League Baseball.

That is a greater crime. There are many cities out there that would be happy to use public funds to build a stadium to lure in an MLB Team.

Anon, there are plenty of cities without baseball teams that still manage to make due. Having a baseball team that is supported by 5000 people when the stadium seats 35000 is more of a crime than not having one at all.

I am not a fan of baseball but I do recognize that it does create jobs and brings more money into the area. Its easy accounting that I think we should all understand.

Give me $300 million and I promise to create jobs, too. First I'll flip the money to make $600 million, then I'll create the jobs like the Marlins.

Yeah, priceless marketing as the worst idea and exploitation of taxpaying citizens by government greed.

Does "priceless" mean it has no value?
