The Rays may have lost Andrew Friedman to the Dodgers today...but at least they got some good news when Charlotte County Commissioners approved $120,000 in spring training upgrades at the Charlotte Sports Park. Most of the money will go to sound system and concession improvements.
The county's deal with the Rays has to be one of the best spring training deals out there, as $120k is pennies compared to what some other counties are forking over for six weeks of baseball.
However, you'll still never convince me the Rays are bringing $21 million to Port Charlotte each spring.

Noah, you sum up your primary obstacle as a journalist here, in your own words, when you say, "you'll still never convince me the Rays are bringing $21 million to Port Charlotte each spring."
ReplyDeleteYou are what scientists call not convincible.
And this is because you don't approach the question seeking a reliable answer. Instead you approach the question having already answered it before you started.
If you can get over THAT hump, you'll be fine.
Agree to disagree, Rick. My job is to question everything.
DeleteIn the case of Charlotte County, I cannot be convinced because I have seen the evidence...and asked the questions...and the claim is outrageous.
