This should have been voted on by the voters in Florida.

Not dictated by DeSantis & his clan.

I hope he pays a price for this, politically.

He's an educated Trump, but still a bully.


Do something positive.

Wheels within wheels.

That's another thing that's nuts. Municipal governments paying ridiculous amounts for sports' teams to move to their backyard.

In the UK there are multiple leagues and you can be demoted if your team does badly and promoted if they do well. So every town has at least one team that local people can support, in whichever league they are in. And no team ever moves. The teams have to build and pay for their own stadiums. They are invested in their local community, which supplies matchday fans. And guess what: many of the UK's football teams are worth as much as the biggest US sports teams. Without a single penny being handed to them. They stand on their own feet.

London has three huge teams. Manchester has two. Liverpool has one. Glasgow two. And so on.

So no sympathy for Floridians if that's the deal they made and now have to pay for.
