"Cities that don't know how to be cities, or don't want to be cities, build downtown stadiums, catering to car owners, corporate box owners, and wealthy ticket holders. Tax-draining stadiums serve the very people who deserted the city. To think that stadiums can provide a salvation or even a mild assist to the ills of downtown is pure folly, especially when most games are played at night."
