Let the 32 BILLIONAIRE NFL owners pool their fucking blood money. Asshat Goodell can pitch in too.

They are all getting their precious tax breaks now, so… time for them to pony up.

NGL, wouldn't mind it if a few of these billionaire owners made some new Italian friends.

My advice?

Let them leave.

The Chiefs pulled this shit on us earlier this year, strongarming a vote on a nebulous, undefined new stadium plan on the ballot (and it came with an estimated $6,000,000,000 in public funding) and the voters soundly defeated it.

Then Clark Hunt, who apparently we haven't made rich enough over the last fifty years, immediately said the team wouldn't renew the lease on Arrowhead Stadium... even though we're still paying on the last renovation. This motherfucker has a two-story condo INSIDE THE STADIUM ITSELF.

Billionaires are leeches.

This happened in Minnesota some years ago. Team threatened to leave if tax payer money want used to build a new playground for the Vikings to continue losing in.
