5. On top of this...
The Yankees are asking for another $259 million in tax-exempt bonds and $111 million in taxable bonds, on top of $940 million in tax-exempt bonds and $25 million in taxable bonds already granted for its $1.3 billion stadium.

But they can break the bank to sign these insane contracts

I want one representative to stand up to them and ask them why they should get anymore money from the taxpayers when they have all this money to blow on big name signings
