Given that the Rams owner seems willing to build such a private stadium, it’s a great NFL play call.

But I’m hoping that at least San Diego will say “no mas” to such pro sports subsidies. We are cash strapped and facing BIG-time financial obligations — pension shortfalls, retiree healthcare obligations (iffy) and — most important — up to a $5 billion infrastructure deficit.
