Haslams committing to renovate Browns Stadium
-
How much are Cuyahoga County residents going to be expected to pay?
In the end, who cares? If a city wants to keep a team, they have to pay for stadiums, or at least a large portion. It's not like people in the area are going to get a tax bill for $900. They will pay it a nickel here, a nickel there over 20 years.
We have been through a city and owner in a pissing contest over playing facilities and the team moved. I hope people are smart enough to understand a NFL team is worth a lot of money to a community.

And if they do it right, making a complex that ties into the waterfront, it could be a place to visit. Rather than a big concrete thing. Look, if you've gotta fork out for a new stadium in order to keep the team (we don't want to lose them again, do we) then do the whole area up right. Make it more than just a place to gather for ten football games a year.

we don't want to lose them again, do we
Eh, it's just a sport, I could care less. This reincarnation of the Browns hasn't really worked out since 1999, with what (3?) winning seasons in the last 23 years? I never got to watch the Browns when they were good and winning championships. The Cavs are in the playoffs without LeBron for the first time so that's where I will be. At least the Cavs know how to build a winner.

I'm going to assume that that might be a common view among fringe Browns fans....along with those who can't get past who the current QB is.
I didn't start watching the Browns until 1995 and they were gone just a few years later. I don't have an emotional attachment to the team that some of the old guys do. I would imagine the generation younger than I am would feel the same.
