You may have missed the word could( it's used several times in the watch dog blog) in your haste to write another essay. You like many others need only to hold your horses just a few more days and let the deal come forward.
If I had a crystal ball it might say.
1. They will take some of the special features out of the stadium proposal similar to what Greensboro and Winston Salem did and lower to over-all cost.
Thats #1 - the ILM stdium ranks #2 on hte list of the last 10 stadium builds as MOST expensive
2. Mandalay/Braves will up the ante by increasing the lease years or payment schedule
Thats #2 - there is no ramping up
3. The city will get the advertising and naming rights for the stadium.
Thats #3 and #4 as the city get neither according to the MOU (you're bating 1.000 right now)
4. The city will get $1 per ticket tax.
Thats #5 - no ticket surcharge
5. The finances will come from either .5% food and beverage or about 1.5 cent on $100 dollar evaluation General Revenue Bonds.
Thats #6 and #7 - no beverage tax and a lot more than 1.5 cents
I also predict that if the issue makes it to a vote, the citizens of Wilmington will support It and the stadium will be built in the downtown area.
Now Vog, whats your little crystal ball say?

I'm sorry but your crystal ball seemed to have cracked Terry. In just 1 post you made 7 FAILED predictions with the 8th just around the corner.
