Simple answer is the team threatens to relocate if the municipality doesn't help pay for the new stadium. And cities without a team offer to help build a new stadium.

Cobb Co. is 62% white, 25% black and other races make up the difference. But don't let facts get in the way of a good trope!

This works well

This works well

I was hoping for another take on Ali from a white guy who was born a decade after his last fight!

You can appreciate and even enjoy watching him play and still think he's an acerbic jerk.

Generous use of “tail end” there.

Well they are assholes if they want to chill expression. Really isn't that hard to ignore stupid people, but not being able to present ideas without fear of reprisal is incredibly dangerous.

I mean, based on his past I wouldn't rule it out.

“High level” state rep? Eh that's generous.

No, he's from Kentucky. You're thinking of Reggie White (or I don't know, nobody).

Well you're wrong.

Care to explain that last sentence?

You realize every state in the country had slavery except Pennsylvania, right? No, you don’t, because your an ignorant fuck who speaks in illformed platitudes.

Um, they're both actual draft dodgers

That was the worst thing. He wasn’t perfect, who is? But I also think he had a certain privilege in being able to dodge the draft that others (including a ton of poor blacks) didn’t have. I don’t necessarily begrudge it, but I’ll never celebrate it.

I was going to say, MJ and Jim Brown existed, right?

I’m ok with Ali not going to Viet Nam, but the aggressive cocksucking he’s getting for it is a bit much. When I think sports figures who were genuine heroes, I’ll start with Roberto Clemente, Pat Tillman and Arthur Ashe. Ali is down the list a bit. But he's also a top-5 greatest athlete of all time.

That's utter horseshit and you know it - the canonization has to have limits

There stands Dave at the summit of Take’s Peak!
