Reply #84: No single item makes up quality of life [View All]

it's a web of stuff. Sports teams can add to that. Just walk around Chicago Avenue before a day game and tell me that that doesn't add something. And the dome sucks. It is sterile lifeless place, it's like a high school gymnastics gym.

Oh yeah, the lack of money for schools drove me into a career change--but maybe I missed the proposal that says if we don't do this then we WILL invest in schools.

I'm personally only a moderate sports fan, one or two Twins and Vikings games a year. I am however in favor of playing and recreation in all its wonderful forms, and one more fun thing which is enjoyed by millions can't be all bad.

Hell, if it were up to me they'd be building that Whitewater park by St. Anthony falls--that died a slow death brought about by indifference.
