This is proposed...not yet approved.  May take about another year to have the answer from the city about funding.

A major renovation of the existing BOA Stadium could hinge on a bill in the state legislature to extend existing hospitality taxes until 2060 to provide taxpayer financing.

Could this not be what the plan would be for us with that hella big proposal of $1.2B in renovations to BoA?

Something like this would be ideal for us. No dome, but protection from the brutal sun in September and October. Change the field back to grass and boom, there you go.

I always thought this guy looks like he failed trying to start his own boy band in Orlando then moved slightly north to Jacksonville to open a dumpy ice cream shop that is doing barely marginal but he was too dumb to realize he opened it up across the street from a Dairy Queen and next door to a Jenny Craig

Im just here to say Florida doesn't deserve 3 NFL teams.

 

 

 

 

Why?

California has the largest population (39 million) of any state and has 3 teams.  Texas is 2nd (30) on that list and they have 2, Florida is 3rd (22) and have 3, New York is 4th (19) and they also have 3, then a sizable population drop (from 19.6 million to 12.9) to Pennsylvania who has 2 teams, then Illinois (12) who only has the 1, and then Ohio (11) who has 2.  

After that, Georgia, North Carolina, and Michigan are the only other states with 10+ million population, but all under 11 million which the above states all at least have.

So just from a population standpoint there is no real reason they shouldn't have 3 teams, then add in that it's a warm location and I don't think there is anything wrong with it.  If anything, the argument shouldn't be that Florida doesn't deserve 3, but that Texas should have a 3rd given their population size.

Now if you want to say they don't deserve 3 teams just because the state is freaking crazy, then that's a different argument that I can't fault, LOL

Hoping you weren't the only one with that story?

    • I would write “give remmers tight end help” on a yellow sticky note and stuck it in shulas playbook the night before superbowl 50. 
    • And don’t worry about Bryce he will be great… Peyton Manning had a horrible rookie year too 😂
    • Nothing wrong with it at all until you start telling others they are bad fans or not fans. But you are the good fan because you never say negative stuff about the team.    I did many years of that type of uninformed fanning because there really was no info and coverage like there is with the internet.    I mean, I used to go to the store and get Street and Smith’s annual football issue. That was about the extent of what you could get if you didn’t live in a big city with sportswriters covering and reporting.  There was no video to look at or replay the games and if you didn’t live in the market you could only rarely see your football team play.    TI have fanned since being a kid in the early 1960s, and as late as 1995 - ‘97 I lived in Atlanta and good luck getting more than 3 or 4 games a year on TV. No radio either. No print coverage outside of an AP recap and box unless they played Atlanta.  People today that have always had the network connection don’t know.    I wasn’t very educated about the Panthers until I finally got internet.
