This whole project is stacked in favor of Mandalay, the Braves, and the Braves owner. Multimillion dollar corporations owned by billionaires do not volunteer to share profits of can't miss projects. That this partnership has even been offered should tell everyone to say no. That they want to extend negotiations for another 6 months should speak volumes. What happened to all of the other places “praying” for this opportunity to be offered to them. These other places along with the 2014 opening date are nothing more than a version of pressure sales. Billionaires remain billionaires by manipulating others into paying their bills. It is way past time for everyone to see this for what it is, it is time for Wilmington to wish Mandalay, the Braves, and their Owner the best of luck as they present this opportunity to another city...........one that is so blinded by the “GLITTER” that they fail to see how much “GOLD” it will cost them.
